Re: Stus-List Removal of Datamarine depth transponder

I removed my Datamarine speed transducer last spring. I spent probably 3 hours trying every non-destructive method I could think of before I had to move to destructive methods. Should have done so earlier since I didn't need to save it anyway (was replacing with an Airmar / Raymarine triducer).

Re: Stus-List Removal of Datamarine depth transponder

Patrick, Come to think of it, you are correct. I had to cut a bigger hole for the Airmar speed transducer, and not the depth transducer, as I previously and erroneously stated. My bad. Steve Thomas C MKIII C MKI - Original Message - From: Patrick Davin via CnC-List

Re: Stus-List Epoxy fillers and other stuff...

Ahmet - I think I get what you are trying to do. A pre laminated and fitted angle would work. Make a form, wider than you need and build up layers. Make it way to big, then Trim and bevel to fit. (Angle grinder). Epoxy in place, fill the void(pre drill) then laminate in place. Btw, mat is

Re: Stus-List Removal of Datamarine depth transponder

The more I think about it, the less certain I am which was which now. It was a long time ago, but I know that I had to use a hole saw for at least one of them in replacing Datamarine with Raytheon. Steve. - Original Message - From: S Thomas via CnC-List To:

Re: Stus-List Removal of Datamarine depth transponder

I have not been able to remove the transducer itself. I am hoping to remove it and send it to DMI for repair / replacement. I was beginning to think that the transducer might have an integral flange instead of a thru hull but your post tells me otherwise - assuming we are talking about the

Re: Stus-List Epoxy fillers and other stuff...

Ahmet - my approach to making flat pieces is to first laminate on a sheet of glass. With polyester, I build-up glass/mat alternating and laminated to a high glass content with a consolidator. (A kind of roller) With epoxy you can use biaxial stitch-mat with fine cloth or peel ply on top, then

Re: Stus-List Vacation II St Martin

While on vacation in Key West a few years ago, I had the chance for a conversation over a couple of beers with the skipper of the former Stars and Stripes that sailed/sails out of Key West. He told me the Coast Guard made them take a significant amount off the mast – something like 17 feet! –

Stus-List substitution of depth transducers

I am replacing depth, speed and wind instruments on Cat’s Paw with i50 and i60 Raymarine instruments. As noted in an ongoing thread, it is difficult to remove the old depth transducer, so is it possible to use the old one with the new Raymarine display? The old transducer is for a Signet

I concur with Dave’s approach. Faced with building up a large area around Calypso’s mast collar (we replaced the original plywood with solid glass/epoxy board) I used both epoxy board and many layers of 25 oz. bi-ax. We worked from below as the deck’s inner skin is only 1/8” and the outer

More on removal. So I looked more closely at the transponder and found that it appeared to be held in place with a threaded "collar" - this came off easily. However the transponder itself won't budge. I tried to tap the top of the transponder with a mallet, being careful not to damage the

Re: Stus-List Removal of Datamarine depth transponder

The good thing about removing a stuck Datamarine depth transducer is that it is a smaller diameter than the transducers used with Raymarine and other manufacturers. If you are careful and lucky, no repair to the hull will be necessary. Steve Thomas C MKIII Port Stanley, ON C MKI Merritt

Re: Stus-List Vacation II St Martin

The Americas Cup Challenge Excursion is still there. Did it a few years ago. If you know anything about racing and are paying attention, it’s more than a little disappointing. The skippers will purposely mis-steer, mis-trim and go to the song gate marks in order to ensure it’s a close finish.
