Re: Stus-List [EXTERNAL] Re: C Crusader 40

[Charlie Nelson via CnC-List]

I may be showing my bias for centerboard boats and bashing to windward would 
not be fun whether the board was up or down.
However, you likely would have pointed better with the board down, consequently 
shortening the trip and unpleasantness of the final 5 days.

Hmmm, yes, context would help Joe.

Indeed. And it pleased my wife that I got rid of some “junk."

As regards rarely sailing with the board down, I spent ten days last May, 
bashing our way to Portsmouth, England, of which the last five were 24 hours a 
day of 35+ knots on the nose. No need for close-hauled, board down windward

Re: Stus-List Japanese hand saw

[Dave Godwin via CnC-List]

Much agreed. I have owned several. Fortunately the blades can be replaced in 
the handles because I get carried away on the PUSH stroke sometimes.

And about the only thing I bought when went to school in Japan was a lot of 
beer and a motorcycle….  ;-)

[Dennis C. via CnC-List]

Seeing the reference to the Japanese hand saw for the centerboard
issue

I have had a Japanese hand saw for decades.  Awesome tool.  I bought it
when I lived in Japan.

For those who aren't familiar with them, the teeth face opposite of
European/American hand saws.  It cuts when you PULL it.  I use it more than
my traditional "push" saw.  Takes a bit of getting used to but once you do,
you'll love it.

Re: Stus-List C Crusader 40

[Charlie Nelson via CnC-List]

I don't know if the Crusader's centerboard is 'weighted' or not--discussion of 
rust, etc. makes me think it could be.
If so or just in case, NEVER have anyone under it while working on it unless 
the board is prevented from fully dropping all of a sudden. 
If my 1000 lb. centerboard let go from the up position, it could kill or 
seriously hurt anyone in its path!

David,
That was discussed. The new owners are a young couple, in the Navy. Neither 
have a lot of sailing experience or finances. Shoe-string budget but big plans 
to sail away.
I think that they will be fine should it remain in the “up” position.
As an aside, I gave them all the old hardware, blocks, rope clutches, deck 
organizers, foot and cheek blocks and three Barient winches from my boat. I was 
tired of moving them around my shed looking for lost tools. Went to a good 
cause I think…
