Re: Stus-List 30-1 Mainsail Foot Length

Randy, it is pretty evident that your boom is longer than what the later boats have. My boom extends only back as far as the wide spots in the coaming where the winches are mounted. Yours is longer, probably because your boat has end-boom sheeting. The later boats are sheeted about two feet in

Re: Stus-List traveller track/cars Harken vs others

I agree about it being overrated, unless you have a real tender boat where the crew has to be on the rail at all times. I put one on my 30-1 and it was almost useless in our light air conditions. The wind was often too light to allow the windward sheeting capability to work. I am racing on a C 115

Re: Stus-List 1980 C 30 headliner removal + the notorious C smile

I have never even considered removing the headliner on my 1980 30-1. The grab rails are attached on the lower side of the headliner, so you don't have to remove it. I have been able to get at everything else with fish tapes from the little panels. On the smile, we all have one. If the bolts

Re: Stus-List 1980 C 30 purchase queries

I have had a 1980 version #593 for 24 years and I have had some of the issues you mentioned. Some deck crazing near stanchions where I believe previous owners (and maybe my boat partner and maybe myself) have put too much stress on the stanchion (docking by feel). A small chainplate leak, fixed by

Re: Stus-List repacking toerails

I used two runs of the Compass Marine butyl, one next to the other. No leaks. Also wrapped a little butyl around the head of the bolt, to assure no water would get down the bolt hole. Gary From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Jesse A. Rieber via CnC-List Sent:

Re: Stus-List Climate Control on board - looking for suggestions

I used to go up to Baltimore each Labor day weekend for the Indy Car races. Hot.. I took a small 120v window unit and built a platform for the foredeck to mount it over the hatch with a couple of side pieces (and a little duct tape). Stuffed enough air in there to keep the cabin cool. As it came

Re: Stus-List Preventer or boom brake for C/1

I put a bail on the boom about half way back. The clip on the preventer line goes from that, forward to a snatch block on the rail just in front of the shrouds, and then back to a cleat mounted on the cabin top. In my opinion, the preventer is to prevent a swinging boom, not to stop one. When

Re: Stus-List New owner, 1980 C 30' MK1, SV "Going"

Welcome to the 30-1 club! We have a great group and cover 30's from hull number 1 to the mid 600's, and few of us are shy about what we have done to keep our boats out there. You will enjoy her. Gary Nylander #593 St. Michaels Maryland -Original Message- From: CnC-List

Re: Stus-List 80' C 30 Smile Photo

Looks familiar. Who knows what they stuffed in there, I’ve used many different ‘fixes’ but the keel hasn’t moved and there is no water intrusion. Best is to grind all that old bottom paint off that area and wrap some fiberglass around it and bond it. Or use Marine-Tex or something similar

Re: Stus-List spinnaker rig

My thru-the-mast fitting is located about 3 feet above the spreaders. The downhaul is mid deck (about 2 feet forward of the cabin) on a folding pad-eye. I have a block there and the line runs back along the cabin (one fairlead at the front/side of the dorade box and another at the rear) to a

Re: Stus-List Backstay length and tension

I have the split backstay arrangement as well. Probably the yard guys didn’t push the adjuster up all the way to the split when they were reattaching the backstays. Just a guess. Gary St. Michaels MD From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of David Knecht via
