Stus-List Any CC Lister in Maine?

I have a 1982 CC 34, on a mooring in Bass Harbor, Maine (on Mount Desert Island).  My wife and I are planning on moving up in boat size in the next year or two, and looking for a boat we can comfortably cruise for a couple of weeks along coastal Maine (with or without our two teenagers). The 34

Stus-List Cordless heat gun for heat-shrink tubing

Does anyone have a recommendation for a cordless heat-gun to shrink the tubing  / melt glue on 12V electrical crimp connections?  I want cordless as my boat is normally on a mooring. I've come across a couple on the internet, but it's hard to judge if they are any good. By the way - big thank

Dan, I used to be based in Westbrook CT, so here are my recommendations for Eastern Long Island Sound. This is based on several summer cruises on our CC 34 with wife and two younger teenagers. Westbrook - slip at Brewer's. Huge full-service yard. Pool, showers, restaurant (expensive). Gas BBQ

Re: Stus-List Outboard size

Mike, I will echo the feedback below from Martin. We had a Honda 2HP, bought expressly because it was light enough to easily lift on and off. However, it just was not powerful enough if we found ourselves in rough water / strong wind / current / exposed mooring. I switched to a Tohatsu 6HP, and

Fred/Bob, Thank you both for the very helpful info on Kracor. I'll contact them. From their catalog, it looks like model 2-81823 might be a direct replacement. Regards, Damian Damian Greene1982 CC 34 GHOSTBass Harbor, Maine  ___ Email address:

Stus-List Replacement Holding Tank - 1982 CC 34

It looks like I'll need to replace the holding tank on my 1982 CC 34 - weeping crack in the sidewall at the discharge penetration (creating smelly mess in the bilge). I could try to get it plastic-welded, but likely the best route for a winter project will be to replace the tank, and the hoses

Re: Stus-List Asymmetric chute

Let me add a little detail to Andy's directions below on how to drop an asymmetrical spinnaker (based on when I owned a J-80). This keeps the sail under control: 1) Head downwind to blanket the spinnaker with the main2) Open the hatch3) A single crew member goes just forward of the open hatch,

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

Ryan,I see you're widening your search. If you're still interested in the 36, I can take a look at the boat, and get a little background.I'm in Bass Harbor Maine, and store my boat for the winter with John Williams (they are in Hall Quarry, just a few miles away).Sadly I've just returned from

Re: Stus-List Input on inflatable dinghy purchase

Bob, Other listers seem generally happy with a roll-up and a 2HP, but let me give you contrarian advice. When I bought my C 34 about 7 years ago to sail on those same waters (LIS/Vineyard/Block/Buzzards - based in Westport CT), I bought a Zodiac roll-up and a 2HP Honda. Crew was me, my wife,

Stus-List Question on best fuel filter setup

I have some questions for your collective wisdom: what is the best fuel filter setup?First of all, I have to admit I just bought a Sabre 38 (1986). We are en route home from Essex CT to Bass Harbor ME. We were going through fairly rough seas yesterday entering Buzzards Bay and the engine died -

Guys, I’ve put my C 34 on the market to sell. We’re looking to move up in size to a 38. Here’s the listing – with East Coast Yacht Sales in Camden ME. The asking price is priced to sell, and is reflective of recent transactions for similar vintage C 34s.

Re: Stus-List opinions about cabin table

Lisle, Here are a couple of considerations both ways (and both boat interiors look great)… We recently switched from a C 34 (table similar to C 30), to a Sabre 38 (table similar to Tartan 31). I much prefer that I can swing the table up on the bulkhead. That is now our standard configuration

Stus-List Question: Radar reflector vs. active radar

Here's a question for your collective wisdom:  We regularly have fog here in Maine, and my normal practice is to hoist a Davis emergency radar reflector in the shrouds (so I hopefully will not get run over by a lobster boat). So this year I decided to get the yard to mount an EchoMax reflector
