Insurance experience
My C 35-3 has been insured by Allstate
for the last 25 years and I
have experience
with 3 major claims. Once, while transiting Plum Gut
with my son at the helm, doing about 8 kts with
the big chute up, we hit
an unseen,
underground spire submerged 6' below the surface. 20k
later
Allstate covered all but the 500
deductible and there was no increase in
rate which has held at about 5-600 with an
insured value of 60k + 6k for
"accessories" for the duration of
coverage.   About 10-15 years ago, the
boat, during a storm, was blown off its jack
stands when the cover
caught one of the
stands causing hull and rigging damage. some 20+k
later, Allstate handled the claim speedily and
without premium increase.
The boat was
totaled in Super Storm Sandy. After a 45K payout, Allstate

gave me the boat along with the check. I
used the $ to rebuild the boat
and she is
as good as or better now than new. There has been no real

increase in premium. I can only praise
Allstate in that they are 1/2 the
cost of
Boat US, have been easy to work with and have stuck with me

through  3 major incidents.

Re: Stus-List Sail Changeover for 29 mk1

2018-02-07 Thread Ted Drossos via CnC-List
When I raced my 29-2 I would change from a 155% to either a 125% or 135% when 
sustained apparent wind was 20 knots or greater. There was a 29-1 in our fleet 
who had to shorten sail sooner than us. I sold my boat and have two racing 
headsails available if anyone is interested . They are 100% and 125% and were 
only used three times.

This is true in all 50 states because it is a FEDERAL law. What the sentence 
means is that the boat must not display state registration numbers if it is 
documented. That is what they mean by "identified". This is not to say that 
states cannot require you to register the boat. They just cannot require a 
visible state registration number. They CAN display a sticker indicating that 
state fees and taxes have been paid. That is not a registration number. I live 
in Connecticut. My boat is Federally Documented and also registered in CT. The 
markings on the boat are the name, hailing port and a small sticker from the 
state that shows taxes and fees are current. Federal Documentation is the title 
for the boat, and Connecticut uses my Doc number as the registration number on 
the paperwork. No state is arguing about this, as it works just fine for all 
concerned, and has for a long time. Most, but not all, states require a state 
registration for Federally Documented boats. This is not a problem for anybody 
involved. People seem to tie themselves in knots over this. It is not even 
slightly complicated. BoatUS is not practicing law without a license, or 
drawing their own conclusions. They are just stating the laws as they plainly 
exist on the books.

In PA, Federally documented boats are not required to be titled under the PA

federal law has requirements about how a federally documented boat must be

For racing in light wind conditions (10 and under) , especially beer can
racing the 150 - 155 gennies are gold, you get great power accelerating the
boat away from the cans.

That has certainly been our experience.  Our 150 was literally a game
changer on Wednesday nights, worth far more than the phrf adjustment.  The
added straight line talent more than offsets the reduced pointing and added
time for tacks.

Easy way to see when to change / or pick another sail to start with? If you
see white caps ->  use the 135.


If not racing  / just cruising around we use the 135 unless it's really
light like 5-6 knots or less.  We use it because we have it..  If I was not
racing I could definitely get by on the 135 only.

my 2 cents.

Two years ago I used a fancy Allwood product (I’ll get the name) based on a 
write-in comment that appeared in Practical Sailor.  I followed the 
instructions, including application of a primer coat, and everything looked 
great.  This past spring, after a particularly cold winter, I noticed that 
there was an adhesion issue.  You can see “bubbling” underneath the varnish (or 
whatever it is).  I haven’t decided what to do about it.

Re: Stus-List Exterior Teak

2018-02-07 Thread Randy Stafford via CnC-List
I had a pretty good test of that in the past year.  Last offseason I replaced 
Grenadine’s exterior cabintop teak handrails with new ones fabricated by my 
buddy Jerrod Milton.  I finished the new ones (and the teak piece under the 
traveler) with five coats of Cetol Marine Natural Teak followed by three coats 
Cetol Marine Clear.

Then Jerrod made a set of custom teak drink holders for the boat, installed at 
both ends of the cockpit and inboard of the dorade boxes.  He insisted on 
finishing those with teak oil.

After basically one year in the elements, the handrails and traveler piece look 
brand new, just like they did when I got done refinishing them.  But the drink 
holders are weathered as hell.  I’m refinishing them now with Cetol.

Cheers,
Randy

Sailing on the Chesapeake... lots of 10Kt and below days during the season.
Also getting this hopefully for potential club racing.

For casual sailing I will use an older 130 or a plain jib.

And with a foil and dual halyards, change over is really not so bad... but
then I am getting older :) Just need younger crew :)

Re: Stus-List Recent discussion regarding Federal v. State Boat Documentation

2018-02-07 Thread Dennis C. via CnC-List
Fairly good analysis, Matthew

As a 30 year regulatory professional, terminology is critical.

Documented and registered are two entirely different concepts.

USCG "documentation" is a very formal thing.  It is analogous to placing
the mortgage for your house with a clerk of court.  All liens, actions,
ownership changes, etc. are documented through the USCG.  If you haven't
already, order an abstract of title from the USCG Documentation Center.
The abstract will show every legal action taken against the vessel since it
was documented.

Touche's abstract shows five owners, a lien for $62,400, and a couple other
things.  Interesting history.

On the other hand, state "registration" is often a money grab by most
states.  Usually it's required for any powered vessel over 16 feet (give or
take).  As Matthew said, many states require a decal to show that the
periodic registration fees have been paid.  Displaying a fee decal does not
conflict with the federal numbering regulations.  In Louisiana, there is no
exemption for documented vessels to forego the display of the state
registration numbers.  However, my impression is that enforcement of the
requirement is "soft".  I have a laminated placard that I can place in a
window that shows the Louisiana registration number.  I keep the current
fee decal in the boat's log.  No issue so far.

As a further note, when I registered Touche' with Louisiana, Touche's
pre-1972 HIN did not conform to the 12 digit format so they issued a new
vessel hull identification number.

documentation, you may want to see the link below posted by Boat U.S.

Boat Documentation Requirements - BoatUS Graphics


Boat Documentation Requirements - BoatUS Graphics
Find all boat documentation requirements whether your boat is state or
federally documented.


While not authoritative in & of itself, it might cause local law
enforcement to pause and rethink if they ever pull you over because you
don't have state numbers displayed on your boat.

At least in Florida, this does not eliminate the need to display the state
registration sticker.

Hoping you find this helpful,

2018-02-07 Thread Bill Bina - gmail via CnC-List
This is true in all 50 states because it is a FEDERAL law. What the 
sentence means is that the boat must not display state registration 
numbers if it is documented. That is what they mean by "identified". 
This is not to say that states cannot require you to register the boat. 
They just cannot require a visible state registration number. They CAN 
display a sticker indicating that state fees and taxes have been paid. 
That is not a registration number. I live in Connecticut. My boat is 
Federally Documented and also registered in CT. The markings on the boat 
are the name, hailing port and a small sticker from the state that shows 
taxes and fees are current. Federal Documentation is the title for the 
boat, and Connecticut uses my Doc number as the registration number on 
the paperwork. No state is arguing about this, as it works just fine for 
all concerned, and has for a long time. Most, but not all, states 
require a state registration for Federally Documented boats. This is not 
a problem for anybody involved. People seem to tie themselves in knots 
over this. It is not even slightly complicated. BoatUS is not practicing 
law without a license, or drawing their own conclusions. They are just 
stating the laws as they plainly exist on the books.

Re: Stus-List insurance

2018-02-07 Thread Randy Stafford via CnC-List
OK so after this very enlightening thread, I decided to do a bit of shopping 
around.

I got a quote from the Gowrie Group (underwritten by New Hampshire Insurance 
Company) with a premium of $403.  But it had a sail & spar exclusion, which can 
only be removed by getting a professional inspection of the rig.  So I’d have 
to spend money to save money.

Then I called Ameriprise, who provide my home, auto, and umbrella policies.  
They also offer marine insurance underwritten be Progressive.  They quoted me 
$361, which is $218 or 38% less than what BoatUS just charged me.  I’m pretty 
tempted to make the switch.

Does anyone have any experience with Progressive as a marine insurer, or any 
experience with cancelling a BoatUS policy and getting a prorated refund of the 
current year’s premium?

Thanks,

Re: Stus-List Recent discussion regarding Federal v. State Boat Documentation

2018-02-07 Thread Matthew L. Wolford via CnC-List
I reviewed the first two bullet points from the BoatUS recital, and at least in 
PA they are not (or may not) be correct:
  a.. Vessels may only be identified as either a State Registered Vessel or a 
Federally Documented Vessel - NOT BOTH.
Not true in PA.  There is a difference between titling and registration.  
In PA, Federally documented boats are not required to be titled under the PA 
Fish and Boat Code (and, I believe, cannot be State titled).  However, they 
must be registered.  This change was made to the State statute in the 1990s and 
became effective on March 1, 1998.  Under the old requirements, federally 
documented boats were exempt from State registration.  Under the new 
requirements, federally documented boats used for recreational purpose must be 
registered.  As far as I know, no one has challenged this scheme, and I doubt a 
court would conclude that State registration requirements are preempted because 
they are help the State keep track of boats and are not in conflict with 
federal law regarding documentation.
  a.. When a vessel becomes federally Documented, the State Registration 
Numbers and Letters must be removed.
This I don’t know, but I suspect BoatUS is correct.  The reason is that 
federal law has requirements about how a federally documented boat must be 
identified.  To get around this issue, the PA Fish and Boat Commission requires 
decals (not State registration numbers) to be placed on the boat.  Most 
sailboat owners place the decal on the mast.

As we discussed in a previous thread about this issue, this is a 
complicated and unclear area of law which, not surprisingly, the U.S. Supreme 
Court has not addressed.  BoatUS would be wise not to give legal advice in 
promoting the sale of graphics.

Re: Stus-List Emergency tiller for the CnC 35 mk2

2018-02-07 Thread Della Barba, Joe via CnC-List
Pro Tip:
Get it made longer than the stock one C gave out and put a hinge in it. I 
found my tiller was about a foot short and half a foot low of where it would be 
most comfortable to use. I haven't used it in ages, but before the autopilot 
was installed I would sail with the tiller in the rain so I could sit under the 
dodger. Could be worse, many emergency tillers are really bad - truly for 
emergencies only.

Jeremy,

You've got it right about the emergency tiller, it has a square end fitting, 
split on one side with a bolt to clamp it on the stock, and an aluminum tiller. 
 A shop should be able to fab one for you.  I would suspect the 35-2 has the 
same size rudder stock as my 35-1 but to be sure maybe someone with a 35-2 
could confirm the size.

Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the list!

There should be a loop in the discharge hose that goes above the water

aluminum tiller.  A shop should be able to fab one for you.  I would 
suspect the 35-2 has the same size rudder stock as my 35-1 but to be 
sure maybe someone with a 35-2 could confirm the size.


Congratulations on your purchase and welcome to the list!

Good evening everyone,

I'm new to email distribution lists so I hope I'm doing this right. I 
just bought a CnC 35 mk2! She's a '74 and needs work but her bones 
look good to me. The one thing missing is the emergency tiller.


Looking at the square-ish attachment on the cockpit sole it seems like 
it would be easy for a machine shop to fab a piece to fit other that 
which I would then attach to a wooden or metal tiller arm.


Does anyone know if these are already available out there? If not, any 
tips for making one? The boat is an 11hr drive from me and I didn't 
think to measure that square piece it fits on. Do any schematics 
around refer to it's size so I can work with a machine shop on this?


Thanks so much, looking forward to joining the family !

Jeremy
