Re: Stus-List iPad Navigation

[Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List]

This story seems to indicate an abundance of stupidity at fault, not the
Ipad. The Ipad or android tablet etc, does not need wi-fi connection to
give an accurate position on a downloaded electronic vector or raster chart
anymore than a dedicated plotter does. An Ipad or dedicated plotter is *not*
AIS or Radar, both of which should have been used in the thick fog
mentioned in the article. A dedicated chartplotter on a vessel without AIS
or Radar, and an idiot skipper would have produced the same result.

One more reason not to believe everything you read on the internet. 2 cents.

Re: Stus-List Exterior Teak Varnish Recommendation?

[coltrek via CnC-List]

Well,  I'm just jumping in here without knowing this whole thread,  and I don't 
want to cross Bill,  B/C I know that is like throwing raw meat in front of a 
Pit Bull - but- in 2005 when I brought my boat back to the shop for a refit, I 
was using a lot of PPG Concept.  Over the cabin paint, I applied a couple coats 
of PPG Strataclear, B/C they said it was the hardest clear coating they had. (I 
also put ground pearls into it,  which,  by the way looks fabulous) After I had 
done  the teak in cetol, I had some leftover Strataclear in the can, (no 
pearls) and I painted it on the teak around  the companionway as an experiment 
. Over the Cetol.  It still looks fantastic 12 years later.

That stuff is not formulated for use on wood, or
over Cetol! Being a two-part urethane, it will also be a major
job to strip off when it fails. My thought is that it is just
asking for trouble. I looked up Chroma Clear. It is an
industrial finish that is only sold to professionals and
requires an advanced type of NIOSH respirator among other
precautions. People with any sort of respiratory issues or
asthma are warned not to get anywhere near it. Those are my
thoughts! :-)

Putting anything on top of
  Cetol sort of defeats its main advantage. Cetol breathes,
  which is beneficial to the wood, and maintenance is easy
  because a quick scrub with plain water and a 3M kitchen
  scrubby is all the prep work usually required to add a
  fresh coat or two when needed. The slight softness is a
  PLUS. If you top coat it, you lose all of that.and may as
  well just do labor intensive varnish without the Cetol.

Re: Stus-List Exterior Teak Varnish Recommendation?

[Joe Della Barba via CnC-List]

My exterior teak has nothing but the occasional squirt with a hose for the
20 years or so. I used to oil it, but it wore off or turned black so quick I
gave up on it.

I finally have decided to work on it, I have one teak rail home for sanding.
I think sealing with thinned epoxy might be a good first step.

Re: Stus-List Input on inflatable dinghy purchase

[Frederick G Street via CnC-List]

Although it probably won’t stow on the foredeck as well as a roll-up, I 
recently got a good deal on a Mercury fiberglass RIB from Defender.  They still 
have a few of the Hypalon 2015 versions left at $1895.00:

http://www.defender.com/product3.jsp?path=-1%7C215570%7C1794282%7C1794293=3227587
 


Relatively lightweight at 85 pounds; about the same as (or less than) my 
previous Seaworthy wooden-floor Hypalon dinghy that served well for twenty 
years.  As our season won’t start for a while yet (!), I’m looking forward to 
getting it out of the shipping crate and up to the boat… someday...

speed. I picked up two used Johnson/Evinrude 2 cycle 1.2HP(!) motors (~$300

They're fast enough for patient dinking on a 10" inflatable and an 8'

Re: Stus-List Exterior Teak Varnish Recommendation?

[Bill Bina - gmail via CnC-List]

Putting anything on top of Cetol sort of defeats its main advantage. 
Cetol breathes, which is beneficial to the wood, and maintenance is easy 
because a quick scrub with plain water and a 3M kitchen scrubby is all 
the prep work usually required to add a fresh coat or two when needed. 
The slight softness is a PLUS. If you top coat it, you lose all of 
that.and may as well just do labor intensive varnish without the Cetol.
