Re: Stus-List Air conditioner placement

Mine is set up like Josh's with no mirror over the engine, but one to the port side of the aft cabin engine area.  However, the mirrors in the head are definitely glass, as one is cracked in one corner. In Tampa I find the A/C keeps up, but runs a lot to keep the interior comfortable. Bruce

Re: Stus-List diesel engine staring procedure

Chris, As a general rule, diesels like to be worked. Keeping them at idle or low-RPM speeds is not good for them in the long run. I usually only keep the throttle down when shifting in and out of neutral or if I need to go slow in a channel, coming into a dock. or picking up a mooring. All

Stus-List PYI shaft seal

I have had 0 problems with mine since about 1987. The hose and seal were swapped out in 2014 I think while the shaft was out as preventative maintenance. That apparently should have been done in 1994! Anyway, modern Teflon packing has made the conventional stuffing box pretty easy to deal with.

Re: Stus-List Water heater weirdness

Jim: Running the hot water for 10 or 15 minutes should get rid of any air bubble in the water system but I don't think this is the problem. There should be a check valve in the high-pressure water line to separate the cold water supply from the hot water from the tank--check the functioning of

Re: Stus-List Water heater weirdness

Mine behaves similarly. You should be able to bleed the tank from that new valve. I will give it a shot as well. I would guess you have a supply line laying on the hot water hose from the heat exchanger. Rick Rohwer Paikea 37+ Tacoma, WA > On Oct 22, 2018, at 11:21 AM, Jim Watts

Re: Stus-List Water heater weirdness

In addition, when I open the taps after motoring, the cold water tap is providing very hot water for the first 10-15 seconds. Mine does that after motoring for a while because the line runs through the engine compartment. Dennis C. On Mon, Oct 22, 2018 at 1:21 PM Jim Watts via CnC-List <

Re: Stus-List Water heater weirdness

Sounds like lots of air in the Hot Water Tank to me, which drives hot water backwards out of the tank into the cold water lines when you turn the cold tap on. I'd think you should be able to blead the air out through the new blo-off valve as it should be the highest thing on the tank. Did you

My Garmin plotters have two different colour schemes AND two different display brightness settings, one colour and brightness for day, and the other for night. It switches automatically between these settings at sun set / sunrise. Ken H. On Monday, 22 October 2018, schiller via CnC-List wrote:

Glenn — you can turn down the brightness using the power button; this works well for nighttime use. But yes, you’re correct, they don’t have a specific night color scheme. I don’t think the Lighthouse charts are going to be as good in Canadian waters as the Navionics+ North America charts. —

Fred, Just wondered if I am correct that Raymarine Axiom 9, which I have with Navionics+, still does not have a night mode similar to Garmin? When I discovered that, I contacted their support guy (Charles, Chuck) and he indicated they did not have a night mode. He started a ticket on that

Hi Chris, On my girlfriend's boat, she has the same engine. When starting we set the throttle to about 1/4 to 1/3 then start cranking. Sometimes I'll engage the compression release to get the engine spinning a little faster (about 10 secs) then release it. Another thing we do is flush the

I'm baffled. Maybe someone here can figure this out. A few weeks ago, I replaced the leaking overpressure/overtemperature valve on our old Raritan water heater, and ever since, the pressure water pump acts very oddly. It starts out sounding normal, then as the pressure builds it is obviously
