Re: Stus-List Wow, Digest guys just don't get it (Russ & Melody)

Brian, I approached someone else off list as to why/how this happens. Can you possibly give some insights? If there was legitimately something simple that could be done on the server side? I considered that maybe renaming the digest subject to include "DO NOT REPLY" would help? I've also

Re: Stus-List attaching grounding wires to keel bolts

I got my ABYC electrical certification about twelve years ago; I don’t recall if that was discussed in the certification class or not. I imagine it has to do with rapid deterioration of the braid over time in the very caustic salt environment. — Fred Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis

Re: Stus-List Rudder replacement

Thanks for the info about your rudder replacement,Bruno. Good company to keep in mind if I ever need to do mine. Better to deal with a Canadian company with our dollar being so low right now. Mike Amirault C Lovely Cruise SMSC St Margarets Bay, NS___

Stus-List West coast rendezvous

I am planning on sailing to Desolation Sound in July and stopping at the Rendezvous on the way home to Seattle. If anyone wants to meet up somewhere or sail with me give me a shout. I could use crew as my girlfriend has to work, and won't be able to make the whole trip. She has to

Stus-List Stainless grab rails

I was shopping in Holland Marine in the Toronto area a couple of weeks back and noticed they had stainless handrails in stock, have you tried them? They do carry some C parts and may have another suggestion. There's also a company in Port Huron who made stainless parts for C back in the day, I

Re: Stus-List To foam or not to foam...

I was talked out of adding the foam luff when I order my sail. I wanted to have it and my sailmaker recommended against it. I don’t miss it one bit. It is a 135% and I fairly regularly sail furled down to about 90%. Just my $0.02. Marek 1994 C270 “Legato” Ottawa, ON From: CnC-List

Re: Stus-List To foam or not to foam...

I don't think much of the foam luff on my cruising 155%. I probably wouldn't do it again, especially for a 135. Dennis C. On Thu, Mar 17, 2016 at 11:30 AM, Frederick G Street via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > I’m going to be ordering a new furling 135% headsail for my LF38, and >

Re: Stus-List masthead sheaves

Jason My LF38 has wire rope sheaves; 2 Jib and one Main, are identical 4” OD, ½” ID, 9/16” wide, with Oilite bushing. Rope size is 7/16 There is a number 523318 stamped on them, in case that is a help. I googled my brains out with that number, but came up empty. Closest that I have found,

Stus-List Keel Project

I see that Stu has just posted some information about my keel repair project of a few years ago. I have just finished a small site with all my photos of the project along with a running log of the explanation of the process, the link for that site is here. Stu can now add this site to our list

Re: Stus-List To foam or not to foam...

I have a UK tapedrive 144 with foam.  When furled it is smooth and clean right down to 100.  I can't speak to dacron.  But if done right it makes sense to me. Bill Walker CnC 36 Evening Star Pentwater, Mi Sent from AOL Mobile Mail ___ Email

Stus-List Keel Smile

My keel joint seems to be opening up; there wasn't much sign of it at haul out, but now it's noticeable. Also, you can see something oozing from the crack. Whatever it is has an oily texture so I'm guessing it's coming from the bilge. In the first photo, the vertical stain is the same oily ooze
