Yes they do.very good point, excellent memory actually. I did not have to be concerned because I have an old 1974 design and the under bottom is solid and thick.I think even a bubble in that, and I know there are some because there was one beside the hole I cut to do the through hull mount, which may have had something to do with why it was not always reliable so you always have to find a spot when there are no voids in the solid lay up too, but at least if it doesn't work you can move it fairly easily and you don't leave a gaping hole behind. I got lucky first try

I seemed to remember that detail being part of past discussions on this subject. Cheers, Russ Sweet 35 mk-1 At 12:55 AM 13/04/2013, you wrote: Based on my experience, I would say if it's a depth transducer install it on the inside of your hull and either don't cut a new hole or plug the one you have already. Find a nice spot on the inside, close where you want it located, clean the area with solvent, let it dry and then apply a really generous gob of Dow Corning silicone sealant and submerge the active face of the transducer in it while holding on a slight angle to make sure you don't trap air bubbles, then press it down hard and hold there for a while. I did it that way based on information I got from this list because my Raymarine depth transducer was not reliable.it has worked flawlessly to over 200 feet (my boat draws about 6) for over 2 years and I have one less hole in the boat.I am happy Dwight Veinot C&C 35 MKII, Alianna Head of St. Margaret's Bay, NS _____ From: CnC-List [ <mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com> mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of jmckay533 Sent: April 12, 2013 10:36 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List New through hull transducer Good evening.

That's a gripping video and reminds me of a very similar situation I got myself into last year minus the crushed legs. I was being too aggressive, boats touched and although no protest came of it, I was at fault and should have bailed when I was getting squeezed out of the pack before the committee boat. On the deck after the race much discussion was held and I insisted I could not change course for I would have rammed the committee boat but later when the photos came out I realized I had plenty of time to abandon the start and not look like a knob. The point is at speed within lengths of the line and adrenaline is up with a bunch of fast boats a nose blow apart, it's easy to make a decision that you wished you hadn't after the fact and unfortunately the only solution to this is experience. On the plus side the event was educational, provided lively beer talk and no damage was done.

She was give way boat and it looks to me like she was barging the line hell bent to get across inside of what looks like the committee boat, and ahead and to windward of the fleet. If she went up hard she either had to tack away or risk ramming what I think is the committee boat. I can't tell if the leeward boat had room to fall off safely to avoid collision with blue without making a collision with the boat below her, looks like she was being taken up too. I heard now up now up now up now up so someone on Blue knew they were being taken up but I don't think the helmsman or the crew acted soon enough or fast enough. The helmsman's effort to steer up seemed ineffective, not much of a rudder on that boat if you ask me. The mainsail trimmer tensioned for more close hauled course and looks like the jib trimmer did the same.seems like the crew did not know how to sail that boat under those conditions in close quarters.they did not appear to know what to expect from the boat and the crew.if I turned the wheel that aggressively on my 35 I feel certain she would go up, now I have to try that to find out for sure and ruin a perfectly nice beat some day.

After the starting signal, she cannot sail higher than close hauled. Boats must still avoid contact if at all possible. Crossing the starting line has no effect on how rules 11 and 14 are applied. Alan Bergen C&C 35 Mk III Thirsty Rose City YC Portland, OR Alan, Does Dave Perry's 2016 RRoS book clarify the difference, if any, between before the start and after crossing the starting line regarding Rule 11 and 14? It has been a while since I read Dave's last RRoS book but I recall something about the right-of-way boat having more flexibility before the starting gun.

As soon as she overlapped Camelot, she was the give-way boat, and had to keep clear. When a give-way boat is so close to a right-of-way boat, such that the right-of-way boat cannot turn in either direction without immediately touching the give-way boat, the give-way boat has violated her obligation to keep clear. They do not have to touch in order to prove that Blue did not keep clear. See Dave Perry's "Understanding The Racing Rules of Sailing through 2016, page 96. In addition, the right-of-way boat must take the appropriate action to avoid hitting the give-way boat, when it appears that the give-way boat is not going to keep clear, after which she can protest the give-way boat. There is no requirement for either boat to communicate with the other boat, but it is prudent to do so. If Camelot had called to Blue to head up, or yelled "leeward boat" or "no room", it might have been enough to keep the boats from colliding. If Blue couldn't control her direction, she could have called to Camelot to fall off, that she couldn't steer away, Camelot might have been able to fall off and avoid the crash. She then could have protested Blue. Since both boats broke rules of part 2 of the Racing Rules of Sailing (Blue-Rule 11, Same tack Overlapped; Camelot-Rule 14, Avoiding Contact), both boats should have been penalized by retiring from the race (Rule 44.1(b).
