Stus-List The boat is sold

Just a quick note to say the new owners of Nemesis have picked her up and moved her up Halifax harbour to Dartmouth Yacht Club. She has gone to a good home and the new owners are going to join the list. Why did I sell her? I am retiring in October after 36+ years in the RCAF and this is the

Re: Stus-List Soliciting advice on self launching anchor friendly deck plate for 33-2

Doug, installing an anchor windlass in the anchor locker counts as the single best (cruising) improvement I have made to our boat, I would be far less likely to anchor without it. Highly recommended if you are cruising. Anchor roller - I installed a Garhauer, works well. But your geometry is

Re: Stus-List Boarding Ladder

If you turn the rudder it moves completely out of the way. Even with the rudder centered my ladder does not touch it but is close. Check the stern from the inside. There may be stiffening strip laminated horizontally across that provides a good location to bolt the ladder to. Michael Brown

Re: Stus-List Guidance required on Sewage hose type - LF38

Hi John, I have recently gone through much of this with my LF38, and I have written much of this up on my blog. The first link below discusses the head plumbing. I went with a macerator pump rather than a hand pump. Read the section on my “Sanitation System Plan”. In my setup, all head

Stus-List Soliciting advice on self launching anchor friendly deck plate for 33-2

My 33-2 currently has a small single bow roller which I would like to change out for something a little more friendly for a self launching anchor and tack point for a code zero furling. If it's not sacrilege, I am also thinking about installing windlass in the anchor locker. I would appreciate

Re: Stus-List Boarding Ladder

Marek. Doesn't sound funny to me. One of our biggest safety concerns we have on SLY, our 1975 C 33, is having my wife or I fall overboard. Even with the Life Sling this is a serious risk especially in cold water as we have here in the Northwest. I'd love to have a boat with an open transom.

Re: Stus-List CnC-List Digest, Vol 127, Issue 73

Thanks all for the great insights. I will go ahead and install the ladder to the starboard side of transom with 1-1 1/2 rungs in water and add a gate sometime later. Ali On Saturday, August 13, 2016 9:00 AM, "cnc-list-requ...@cnc-list.com" wrote:

Re: Stus-List Boarding Ladder

The central location would also depend on if you have a split backstay or not. With a split one, you want it central. It also, usually, makes the gate easier to install. Marek Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: RANDY via CnC-List___ This list is

Re: Stus-List Dinghy towing length

Russ, it's a slat-bottom Zodiac. It really is an inflatable, I pump it up in the spring and deflate it in the fall. Usually don't have to do anything to it in between. I really like the concept of an air floor, most folks seem happy with theirs. With no storage at home, it has to live in the

Re: Stus-List Boarding Ladder

I will second the comments about ensuring a good length of the ladder is underwater when folded down - my mother-in-law fell into the water one time off our previous boat, and could not get up the ladder - the lowest rung was barely below the surface. After that debacle I invested in a

Re: Stus-List Boarding Ladder

My 1980 version has a hinged ladder mounted in the center of the transom. When unfolded, the bottom of the ladder hits the rudder. It has not been a problem, it just keeps the ladder a bit away from the transom, which is pretty vertical, maybe a bit sloped in at the bottom, so that is good. The

Re: Stus-List Boarding Ladder

Hi Ali, I have a 1972 C 30 Mk. I, hull #7, with a hinging swim ladder in the middle of the transom. I don't think the bottom rung hits the rudder - I'll confirm that later today. But I worry about people stepping on the top of the rudder. Fortunately I have tiller steering, so I can turn the

Re: Stus-List Boarding Ladder

A question to consider is what you want the step for - getting out of the water, or for a dinghy. On our C 34, we use an Esdon boarding step that we clip to the toe-rail at the side of the boat, for use with our inflatable dinghy or Whaler. Being the side means we can tie up the smaller boat

Re: Stus-List Boarding Ladder

I just looked at sailboat data.   I see what you mean about the rudder.  You could certainly mount it to the side.  The key to using a boarding ladder to get in the boat from the water,  say,  if swimming, you want at least one rung below the water line.  Two would make it much easier.   With
