Andy,

You should wait a couple weeks and go to the Boston boat show.  You get a few 
canvas Venders there and get boat show discount.  Thurston canvas was not there 
last year but Thurston sails were.  Thurston sails gave me a 15% discount but 
Thurston canvas would not because he said they are different companies and he 
did not attend the show.  I think Thurston sails give more competitive pricing 
than Thurston canvas.  I asked for a winter cover quote from Thurston and they 
were 4200.  I got a cover from fairclough for 2600.  It seemed Apple's to 
Apple's...

I would really call every one.  I have to go back into the archives and get you 
another reputable shop over in Bristol

2013-02-02 Thread Dave Godwin
Dave,

I redid all my original floorboards on my boat about 13 years ago. I did it 
exactly the way that Graham describes. Hopefully to add a bit more, I used the 
better part of two full sheets of teak/holly plywood. I put two coats of West 
epoxy on first to seal everything (it didn't…) and then started applying coat 
after coat of varnish (gloss, will probably go with satin next time) until I 
had about 10-12 coats total. I did all of this before the cuts.

After making the cutouts for access to the bilge I routed out both sides back 
and used lengths of solid teak, ripped to 1/4 width, 3/4 height to face each 
side of raw plywood. Glue and tacked. Makes a nice finishing touch.

I can provide pictures if you'd like

Unfortunately, because of flooding and general humidity/wet bilge I have to 
redo this project…

Cheers,
Dave

Ultimate Sole was a great product. I used it and would buy more. Great shiny 
finish and almost non-slip. Made to be applied by DIY with foam brushes. Shame

There was a product called 'Ultimate Sole' that did a great job it is/was 
shiny but not slippery, even when wet. I have heard that it has been 
discontinued but I bet there a few quarts in someone's inventory 
somewhere..worth a try to try and find a quart. 

I put 5 coats of it on the cabin sole 6 years ago and it still looks good.

take many coats to fill the grain and get the finish I want. 
By the way, I am a big fan of gloss finish on the floorboards. Yes they are 
more slippery than non-skid or unfinished boards, but I'm not considering those 
options... and it's not like our boats have acres of cabin sole on which to 
achieve a decent velocity. And gloss sure is pretty!

Joel, 

I bought my 36 in 1995. The first year at layup, I removed the boards and made 
temporary ones out of 1/2"presswood. I store the teak and holly in the basement 
until after the new year. The undersides get a good check up for damage from 
water/humidity from the bilge. Bottom and edges are kept well sealed. On the 
topside I give a light sanding and then a thin coat of Minwax - Helmsman - Spar 
Urethane - Clear Gloss. The result is a hard, shiny finish which is not 
slippery when wet. Floor finish is a matter of taste but I get a lot of 
compliments over the appearance of my floorboards.

Re: Stus-List Non-Slippery Epifanes

2013-02-02 Thread Dennis C.
Rich,

Due to the small space, I'd suggest 4 inch tiles with 1/4 inch spacing.  Maybe 
a rectangle in the center of the salon framed with dark emperador marble and 
filled with tiles on a diagonal.  Nice way to get more ballast.  :)

Or maybe some nice Mexican tile.  You could build in a nice gas grill against 
the forward bulkhead.  Don't forget the tiki torches and granite countertops.

Why wouldn't you go with granite? It polishes up nicely and is available in a

some numbers to put it into perspective

1) clocks at GPS orbital altitudes will tick faster by about 45,900 ns/day
2) clocks moving at GPS orbital speeds will tick slower by about 7,200
ns/day
3) clocks adjusted before launch to these numbers, resulting no more than
+/- 200 ns/day error
(1 ns = 1 foot)

4) gravitational lensing is not an issue, and there is no difference in the
speed of light in any direction from an observer (GPS related)

5) there is some curving of the RF signal due to air density changes, ground
users can ignore it.

6) accuracy of the orbital position of each satellite is the major component
of the solution accuracy.  Satellites do not fly in perfect, repetitive
circle.  For example the pressure of the sunlight is a very observable
effect

 

To get "extreme" accuracy, down to a couple of centimeters, is not done in
real time.  It takes inputs from many different sources and long
computations.  But it is very satisfactory when the ground observations
match the GPS solutions...

Hi,

 

While we are chatting about how GPS works and its accuracy, I would like add
a few interesting tidbits.   

 

A good part of the accuracy come from taking Einstein's Relativity into
account.  Special Relativistic effects like properly calculating doppler
shifts and relative motion are important, but also General Relativistic
effects need to be applied.   For example, Special Relativity states that
moving clocks run slower, but General Relativity states that clocks run
slower in a gravitational field.   Satellites are moving fast compared to
someone on Earth so this makes their clocks to run slower.  But satellites
feel less of the earth's gravity so our Earth-bound clocks run slower.
Since a satellite speed, while fast to us is slow relative to the speed of
light,  our Earthly clocks end up running slower than clocks on GPS
satellites (~50 microseconds/day which amounts to about a 7 nautical mile
spread!).  Also, light (i.e. GPS signals) do not travel in a straight path
as one assumes in triangulating a "fix".  Rather matter curves space around
it, so GPS signals actually bend (i.e. gravitational lensing).  The latter
effect, which is tiny compared to the former, was actually proved using a
sextant of sort, by measuring a star's position during a solar eclipse in
1919.

 

While these effects are ordinarily insignificant for life on Earth, they are
important on the scale of GPS accuracy.I am sure that Einstein did not
have GPS in mind when he wrote down the theory of Relativity, but I'll still
thank him nonetheless.

I'm enjoying this in depth GPS education.
I recall some scuttlebutt in Sail magazine a year or two ago warning that
most of the birds in the system were approaching their "best before date" of
over 25 years and without getting immediate replacement the system would be
down a few leaving some holes or temporary signal loss in some locations in
the coming years. Have you heard any updates to this rumor?

Not true!  Galvanised steel is prone to rusting eventually in a high salinity

Andy, You should wait a couple weeks and go to the Boston boat show.  You get a 
few canvas Venders there and get boat show discount.  Thurston canvas was not 
there last year but Thurston sails were.  Thurston sails gave me a 15% discount 
but Thurston canvas would not because he said they are different companies and 
he did not attend the show.  I think Thurston sails give more competitive 
pricing than Thurston canvas.  I asked for a winter cover quote from Thurston 
and they were 4200.  I got a cover from fairclough for 2600.  It seemed Apple's 
to Apple's... I would really call every one.  I have to go back into the

And 'then' you try to reduce the number of rubidium atoms used in the 'gas' 
since the various isotopes have slightly different native frequency.  The best 
is to keep one atom in the field of observation, then the frequency will be 
consistent...

It works most of the time in the lab, people are working on it to make it 
practical.  It is at least a 100 times more accurate.

some numbers to put it into perspective

1) clocks at GPS orbital altitudes will tick faster by about 45,900 ns/day
2) clocks moving at GPS orbital speeds will tick slower by about 7,200 ns/day
3) clocks adjusted before launch to these numbers, resulting no more than +/- 
200 ns/day error
(1 ns = 1 foot)
4) gravitational lensing is not an issue, and there is no difference in the 
speed of light in any direction from an observer (GPS related)
5) there is some curving of the RF signal due to air density changes, ground 
users can ignore it.
6) accuracy of the orbital position of each satellite is the major component of 
the solution accuracy.  Satellites do not fly in perfect, repetitive circle.  
For example the pressure of the sunlight is a very observable effect
 
To get "extreme" accuracy, down to a couple of centimeters, is not done in real

it is very satisfactory when the ground observations match the GPS solutions...

Hi,
 
While we are chatting about how GPS works and its accuracy, I would like add a 
few interesting tidbits.   
 
A good part of the accuracy come from taking Einstein's Relativity into 
account.  Special Relativistic effects like properly calculating doppler shifts 
and relative motion are important, but also General Relativistic effects need 
to be applied.   For example, Special Relativity states that moving clocks run 
slower, but General Relativity states that clocks run slower in a gravitational 
field.   Satellites are moving fast compared to someone on Earth so this makes 
their clocks to run slower.  But satellites feel less of the earth's gravity so 
our Earth-bound clocks run slower.  Since a satellite speed, while fast to us 
is slow relative to the speed of light,  our Earthly clocks end up running 
slower than clocks on GPS satellites (~50 microseconds/day which amounts to 
about a 7 nautical mile spread!).  Also, light (i.e. GPS signals) do not travel 
in a straight path as one assumes in triangulating a "fix".  Rather matter 
curves space around it, so
 GPS signals actually bend (i.e. gravitational lensing).  The latter effect, 
which is tiny compared to the former, was actually proved using a sextant of 
sort, by measuring a star's position during a solar eclipse in 1919.
 
While these effects are ordinarily insignificant for life on Earth, they are 
important on the scale of GPS accuracy.    I am sure that Einstein did not have 
GPS in mind when he wrote down the theory of Relativity, but I'll still thank 
him nonetheless.

I recall some scuttlebutt in Sail magazine a year or two ago warning that most 
of the birds in the system were approaching their "best before date" of over 25 
years and without getting immediate replacement the system would be down a few 
leaving some holes or temporary signal loss in some locations in the coming 
years. Have you heard any updates to this rumor?

Stus-List 35-3 cushions and Gas systems oven parts

I have an almost complete set of interior cushions in mostly good shape 
for free for a 35-3.  If anyone wants them and will pay the freight or 
come get them, they are yours.  Does anyone have a lead for parts for a 
Gas Systems 3 burner range and oven?  the top right burner on mine does 
not work and it is the feed for the oven which works, but not too well.  
Would rather replace and repair than get a new one.  Thanks for any info.

Randy,

I agree a 10%.  Those last few femtoseconds really reduce the uncertainty 
circle...


Brings back wonderful memories, many a night spent in the desert using the Deep 
Space Network antennas for the development of the uplink arraying capability.  
Luckily, I only had to worry about picoseconds accuracy in measuring 20+ 
minutes of oneway light-time.

The first sentence is sailing related!  The rest is...   ;-)
