Erik, I have just spent a large number of boat bucks replacing the tabbing in 
the keel stub and repairing wet core above the stub.  We also had a recurring 
crack at the rear of the keel that I hope is finally dealt with, but was 
seeping water (more slowly than yours).  If there was nothing obvious before 
launch, and you're not going to have sleepless nights worrying, get an 
automatic bilge pump and a bigger battery and enjoy your season.  Mojito is

Stus-List Bow chocks, pennants and mooring

2013-05-21 Thread David Knecht
I moved my boat to its mooring last weekend and discovered that the bow chocks are quite different from my C&C 34.  Instead of open chocks to lead the pennants, there are closed slits.  These are fine for the docklines used in a slip, but are not nearly big enough for the twin pennants on my mooring.  I simply ran the pennants over the bow and looped them over the cleats, but I am concerned as to whether this is sufficiently secure.  THoughts?  Dave

The issue becomes chafe and protecting the fiberglass.  I would either
replace the chocks or add stainless rub rail (strakes?).  Otherwise, the

Re: Stus-List Bow chocks, pennants and mooring

2013-05-21 Thread David Knecht
Hi Joel- The pennants are not making contact with the gel coat anywhere.  They are looping over the stainless bow fitting which is part of the anchor roller and extends all the way to the first stantion, if my memory is correct (rarely). So it is effectively a stainless rub rail at the bow.  I guess they could chafe more on the stainless than through a chock, but there is chafe guards on the pennants (pendant? which is correct?).  DaveOn May 21, 2013, at 9:11 AM, Joel Aronson  wrote:David,The issue becomes chafe and protecting the fiberglass.  I would either replace the chocks or add stainless rub rail (strakes?).  Otherwise, the gel coat will be gone in no time.

The original of that drawing is most likely in the C&C Collection at the Marine

website you could probably obtain your own digital copy for a modest price. An

Re: Stus-List Bow chocks, pennants and mooring

2013-05-21 Thread Joel Aronson
David,

It sounds like chafe is not likely in calm conditions, but my secondary
concern would be that the mooring pennant could get caught on the roller if
the boat were to bob up and down. Also, without chocks the boat will swing
more from side to side.

Maybe run the line through large O rings and shackle them to the toe rail?

Stus-List Location of the Pull-Stop Engine Control

2013-05-21 Thread Edd Schillay
Listers,

I'm looking to move the location of the T pull-stop control for my 
engine on the Enterprise (C&C 37+). 

Currently, it's mounted horizontally near the control panel and very 
close to the cockpit floor -- which is a difficult angle to pull from when 
you're at the helm. 

I was curious where other owners have theirs mounted (if you have one 
-- I know some engines just throttle down to off) and what hardware you used to 
put it there.


All the best,

Edd

 I know I haven't grounded it in the week I've had it in the water...  I'm 
wondering what happened in those 18 months on the hard to create leak of this 
size as soon as I launch when he saw nothing his last season with it?

Re: Stus-List Location of the Pull-Stop Engine Control

2013-05-21 Thread Rick Brass
The Universal M35B in Imzadi does not have the original pull cable to stop
the engine. Instead, there is a solenoid mounted on an L bracket on the aft
starboard side of the engine block. The coil of the solenoid pulls in a
"plunger" which pulls a thin metal rod attached to the shutoff lever on the
injection pump. When the solenoid is deactivated, the rubber boot that
covers the plunger pulls the plunger forward and releases the stop lever.
All this is activated by a push button installed in the engine panel and
powered by the +12v feed to the panel.

 

It works well for me, and eliminates one cable run. Westerbeke sells a
remote start/stop panel, so you could probably identify all the needed parts
fairly easily (you would only need the remote stop parts for your engine.

Edd,

Do you have a Yanmar?  If the cable is corroded it is hard to pull (I broke
my instrument panel last year mine was so corroded).  You might need a new
cable.  The new one requires no effort.

Re: Stus-List 35-3 Leak

2013-05-21 Thread Thomas Mikos
Hi Erik,

The obvious question is how did the hull keel joint look at launch? Separation? 
Previous repair noted ? Grounding with compression fractures in the aft part of 
the keel . All of this could have been repaired cosmetically and upon stress 
could leak. I have a 33-2  with  the same structural work up; and when the mast 
was down I just happen to put a crescent wrench on the keel bolt nut under the 
mast and found it to be loose. Surprise but not uncommon since all the loading 
of the mast is at this location and the nut backs off. But your problem is aft 
of this location which is unusual, which makes me think of the possibility of a 
hard grounding. 

PS My boat also has survived with just a manual pump for 27 years.

Are you sure it's not the prop shaft stuffing box that is leaking?  You said
the stern section was dry which would indicate it's not the stuffing box but
just saying in case.   Sometimes a stuffing box will take time in the water

I've definitely ruled that out and yes, the stern section is bone dry.  Also 
water tanks were never filled and all thru hulls appear perfectly sealed.  This 
water accumulates after a day on the can, without running the engine or sailing.

Do you have a Yanmar?  If the cable is corroded it is hard to pull (I broke
my instrument panel last year mine was so corroded).  You might need a new
cable.  The new one requires no effort.

The Universal M35B in Imzadi does not have the original pull cable to stop
the engine. Instead, there is a solenoid mounted on an L bracket on the aft
starboard side of the engine block. The coil of the solenoid pulls in a
"plunger" which pulls a thin metal rod attached to the shutoff lever on the
injection pump. When the solenoid is deactivated, the rubber boot that
covers the plunger pulls the plunger forward and releases the stop lever.
All this is activated by a push button installed in the engine panel and
powered by the +12v feed to the panel.

 

It works well for me, and eliminates one cable run. Westerbeke sells a
remote start/stop panel, so you could probably identify all the needed parts
fairly easily (you would only need the remote stop parts for your engine.

Listers,

 

I'm looking to move the location of the T pull-stop control for
my engine on the Enterprise (C&C 37+). 

 

Currently, it's mounted horizontally near the control panel and
very close to the cockpit floor -- which is a difficult angle to pull from
when you're at the helm. 

 

I was curious where other owners have theirs mounted (if you
have one -- I know some engines just throttle down to off) and what hardware
you used to put it there.

Re: Stus-List 35-3 Leak

2013-05-21 Thread Thomas Mikos
Hi Erik, 

Since the boat was in storage for 18 months you have to ask the following 
questions. How was she stored, on her own cradle or jack stands. On solid 
surface or ground with shifting. Assume the boat was surveyed and the findings 
of the survey may help. Also assume you have all seacocks closed with the 
exception of the cockpit drains. The cockpit drains have worked off my boat 
during winter; so it is an area that I monitor carefully before launch. 

Also I have replaced two hoses on my boat , both involving the sink drains. 
just a heads up there. My boat is similar to yours.

Stus-List C & C 35-3 keel drawings

2013-05-21 Thread Bob Hickson
I have a PDF file showing the entire keel / centreboard assembly with all
the associated "bits and pieces" for the 35-3.

I would be happy to send the drawings to anyone interested.

 

Interesting comments on the top sheet for the drawings;

-  35-3 keel is the same as the 36 keel with a modified insert

-  There is an "added fiberglass spacer between the hull and keel"

-  C/B has 164 lb of lead sheet inside it

-  Much of the C/B mechanism is the same as on the 37

 

Send me an email "off list" and I will forward the drawings to you.

Re: Stus-List 35-3 Leak

2013-05-21 Thread Hoyt, Mike
If you are having the volume of water you have described accumulating
each day you should be able to see the leak.  I would bail and then
spong out the leak and remove every floorboard or access panel you can
so that you can see the trickles of water coming in.  All of this is
assuming that it has not been raining where you are the past week.
 
The keel moves a lot when sailing and most keel bolts do seem to loosen
with time.  Our first boat had water in bilge by middle of season and I
sponged out the bilge only to notoce the water was seeping in around one
keel bolt.  I bought the appropirate sized sockets and tightened all the
bolts while in the water and the leak stopped.  On haulout at end of
season we notciced there was play in the keel and after that dropped and
rebedded the keel.
 
On our next boat we accumulated water again.  this time it was from
rainwater and leaks and around mast etc ... many many hours worth of
rebedding everything and the boat is dry.
 
Hopefully the 35-3 allows you to see the inside of the hull aft of that
stringer so you can see where the water is coming from.

So odd that it seems to be coming from aft the keel bolts, Are you sure it 
is not the stuffing box on the prop shaft that is leaking and running

Hi Joel- The pennants are not making contact with the gel coat anywhere. 
They are looping over the stainless bow fitting which is part of the anchor 
roller and extends all the way to the first stantion, if my memory is 
correct (rarely). So it is effectively a stainless rub rail at the bow.  I 
guess they could chafe more on the stainless than through a chock, but there 
is chafe guards on the pennants (pendant? which is correct?).  Dave

David,

The issue becomes chafe and protecting the fiberglass.  I would either 
replace the chocks or add stainless rub rail (strakes?).  Otherwise, the 
gel coat will be gone in no time.

The original of that drawing is most likely in the C&C Collection at the

Hi,
 
 
This is from Wikipedia:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Atomic_4
 
 
 
The Atomic 4 is descended from an earlier Universal Motor Company design called 
the Utility Four, which was used extensively in World War II by the United 
States Navy and allies to power the lifeboats for the ships, barges, and 
tankers of many navies and merchant marine fleets. The Utility Four was 
replaced by the Atomic 4 in 1947.

Re: Stus-List C & C 35-3 keel drawings

2013-05-21 Thread Morgenstern, Keith E CIV SEA 08 NR
Just as an FYI to all the 35-3 CB folks out there:

The "fiberglass insert" mentioned below is sometimes poorly fitted up.
It was in mine, which made the builder gloop in tons of filler to fair
it to the hull.

Filler has very little tensile or compressive strength on it's own. So
it's fairly brittle.

All this filler was very happy to crack where it mates with the hull
after a few years of flexing.  At least it was on mine.

So my yard had to grind out tons of filler and replace it with properly
placed and reinforced glass cloth.

The keel bolts were tight the entire time...it was just the natural flex
of the fiberglass stump/keel joint.

And in the end. voile! No crack.


But I'd love to get a view of your drawings, if possible, Bob.

Interesting comments on the top sheet for the drawings;

-  35-3 keel is the same as the 36 keel with a modified insert

-  There is an "added fiberglass spacer between the hull and
keel"

-  C/B has 164 lb of lead sheet inside it

-  Much of the C/B mechanism is the same as on the 37

Re: Stus-List 35-3 Leak

2013-05-21 Thread Erik Hillenmeyer
The leaks appears to be directly underneath the stringer.  in fact, if you 
stick your finger down in the limber hole you can feel the squishiness of the 
stringer core that is being washed away (i've pulled out little pieces of it).  
I'm assuming this foam material indicates the core is inactive.  I've tried 
several times to completely dry this out by sponging out that void with paper 
towels or a sponge and then try and feel the trickle, but this hasn't proved 
very effective.
 
I spent the winter rebedding portlights, grab rails, etc that were all leaking 
and had rain water intrusion pretty much licked by launch time.  I am 
definitely seeing this without rain.  I manually pumped it out, left the boat 
and came back 24 hours later (no rain, no running the engine) and took a 
measurment of the water level.  I then pumped it out again and took a bucket 
and refilled it to where it was when I pumped out - 2.5 gallons.  
 
Unfortunately, I can't see inside the stringer beyond what I can see looking 
into the limber hole.  Without cutting into the stringer and removing that foam 
I don't think I'm going to see the actual leak - unless anyone has some 
suggestions.

If you are having the volume of water you have described 
accumulating each day you should be able to see the leak.  I would bail and 
then spong out the leak and remove every floorboard or access panel you can so 
that you can see the trickles of water coming in.  All of this is assuming 
that it has not been raining where you are the past week. 
  
The keel moves a lot when sailing and most keel bolts do seem 
to loosen with time.  Our first boat had water in bilge by middle of season 
and I sponged out the bilge only to notoce the water was seeping in around one 
keel bolt.  I bought the appropirate sized sockets and tightened all the 
bolts while in the water and the leak stopped.  On haulout at end of season 
we notciced there was play in the keel and after that dropped and rebedded the 
keel. 
  
On our next boat we accumulated water again.  this time 
it was from rainwater and leaks and around mast etc ... many many hours worth 
of 
rebedding everything and the boat is dry. 
  
Hopefully the 35-3 allows you to see the inside of the hull 
aft of that stringer so you can see where the water is coming 
from.

I've definitely ruled that out and yes, the stern section is bone

Are you sure it’s not

Actually, local wits like to say we either have two seasons (Winter and Road 
Construction) or four seasons (Winter, June, July and August).

We've just happened to have had a really strange transition out of winter this 
year.  Back and forth from high's in the 70's and 80's F, to snow and high's in 
the 30's F, all in the same week (sometimes several times that week).  Now 
we're getting thunderstorms and torrential rain.  The temps are still running 
ten to twenty degrees F below normal for this time of year.

Without wanting to start a pseudo-political $#!+storm, I think the instability 
and wild swings are indicative of the kinds of weather changes we've been 
warned about by the climate scientists.  And the HUGE weather systems making 
their way across the country of late are on a much larger scale than what we've 
seen in the past (we had severe weather the same day from the same system that 
slammed Oklahoma, 800 miles away).

Hopefully, after the long wait to get back in the water, we'll have a summer

Re: Stus-List Starting a diesel

I've used WD recently - in 2009 - to re-start after having a hydro
lock in the cylinders.  Works like a charm.

Make sure you keep a can or two on board.   (Even if you prefer PB

Looks like you guys near our big lakes see it first.I am not sure we
inhabitants of planet earth can do anything to change what is already in
place.it actually may be a natural cycle

 

I hope you do get some good summer sailing weather and I hope that for us

Actually, local wits like to say we either have two seasons (Winter and Road
Construction) or four seasons (Winter, June, July and August).

 

We've just happened to have had a really strange transition out of winter
this year.  Back and forth from high's in the 70's and 80's F, to snow and
high's in the 30's F, all in the same week (sometimes several times that
week).  Now we're getting thunderstorms and torrential rain.  The temps are
still running ten to twenty degrees F below normal for this time of year.

 

Without wanting to start a pseudo-political $#!+storm, I think the
instability and wild swings are indicative of the kinds of weather changes
we've been warned about by the climate scientists.  And the HUGE weather
systems making their way across the country of late are on a much larger
scale than what we've seen in the past (we had severe weather the same day
from the same system that slammed Oklahoma, 800 miles away).

 

Hopefully, after the long wait to get back in the water, we'll have a summer
worthy of the name this year.  I hope that for all of my pals on the list,
as well.

Re: Stus-List 35-3 Leak

2013-05-21 Thread Indigo
Erik,

There seems to be a huge contradiction in two statements of yours in two
different emails

 

“The previous owner says the bilge was dry the last season he had it in the
water”

 

And 

 

“I spent the winter rebedding portlights, grab rails, etc that were all
leaking and had rain water intrusion”

 

I can’t see how the bilge could possibly be dry with leaking ports, rails
etc.  Maybe these leaks disguised a leak from the keel.  But surely you
would have seen water EXITING from the sump/keel joint while the boat was on
the hard – even if only a slight weep – if water was getting to the bilge
from the ports/grab rails etc.

If you are having the volume of water you have described accumulating each

the trickles of water coming in.  All of this is assuming that it has not

The keel moves a lot when sailing and most keel bolts do seem to loosen with
time.  Our first boat had water in bilge by middle of season and I sponged

I bought the appropirate sized sockets and tightened all the bolts while in

On our next boat we accumulated water again.  this time it was from

rebedding everything and the boat is dry.

Stus-List Touché splashes!

2013-05-21 Thread Dennis C.
Splashed Touché today in Pensacola.  Not a big deal since we only hauled out 15 
days ago but happy to be in the water for Memorial Day weekend in the Pensacola 
area. Sailed all the way from Mandeville to use this yard and contractor. 

No issues, just new Baltoplate, wet sand, a few touch ups to the boot stripe 
and some AwlCare on the paint.  

At launch, immediately noticed engine wasn't pumping much water. Was only 
moving 50 feet or so to a temporary slip so we got it moored and shut it down. 
Strainer clean but noticed water wasn't overtopping the strainer like normal. 
Impeller looked good but again, no water at pump intake. Changed impeller 
anyway. Stored the used one with the pile of other used ones. 

Pulled intake hose off pump and back flushed it with dock hose. Slight 
resistance then Whoosh, free flow. When I stopped, water flowed out of the 
intake. Engine pumping fine afterwards. Only thing I can figure is yard gang 
put something in the intake to prevent paint spray from entering intake. Odd.

Dennis, I had a similar experience with having the intake plugged; when I 
bought my boat to Louisville from Jacksonville we discovered that the intake 
hole had been covered about 90% with faring compound, and it was stuck up into 
the hole so it couldn't be easily seen; in lookiong over the PO's records I 
found that they had a "mysterious" problem with engine overheating, and there 
had been work done to the hull in 2003I guess no ever thought to look at 
the intake!

Re: Stus-List Location of the Pull-Stop Engine Control

2013-05-21 Thread Chuck S
Hi Edd, 
Our pull stop cable is in an awkward spot near a stern cleat on the same side 
of the boat as the control panel. The original tee fell overboard and I 
subsituted a round knob that works just as well. I heard some boats locate the 
stop cable just inside the companioway and considered moving it, but after 
procrastinating long enough I got used to it where it is, and added a nice 
label.

Subject: Stus-List Location of the Pull-Stop Engine Control 

Listers, 


I'm looking to move the location of the T pull-stop control for my engine on 
the Enterprise (C&C 37+). 


Currently, it's mounted horizontally near the control panel and very close to 
the cockpit floor -- which is a difficult angle to pull from when you're at the 
helm. 


I was curious where other owners have theirs mounted (if you have one -- I know 
some engines just throttle down to off) and what hardware you used to put it 
there. 





All the best, 


Edd

Stus-List Avalanche is back afloat

2013-05-21 Thread Pierre Tremblay
Avalanche is back on top of Neptune's domain. Launch on Friday at 0800, and 
mast was back on with everything in place by 1600.
 
Only one little fear during the process, the engine did not fire up on the 
first try. I had a fuel leak at the fuel filter last autumn, and during winter, 
air got into the injection system. Had to bleed all 4 injectors. Original paint 
was not even broken on the injector lines nuts.
 
Saturday and Sunday was a nice 10 hours cruise up the St-Lawrence to Avalanche 
summer heaven. Motored all the way up, except for 1 hour of wind when we pulled 
out the genoa.
 
Good sailing to everyone.

Stus-List Pic of Calypso from Race to the Straits 2013

2013-05-21 Thread Martin DeYoung

Here is link to a pic of an old C&C going to weather.  (I purchased copies from 
Jan's for both my wall and computer desk top.)

We were racing double-handed.  The spin pole is on the mast to keep the heavy 
#1 sheets from tangling in the baby stay.  I estimate we tacked 25 to 30 times 
over the 30 mile course out to Port Townsend.  Fortunately the return race on 
Sunday was all downwind giving the crew a well-deserved rest from grinding.

That's a beauty, just love the lines of those C&C boats, do you know how
many of that design were made, that was a decent sized sailboat in 1970 and
still is by my standards.Calypso looks to have a nice heel angle on the
weather leg, very comfortable for crew, light air I guess, looks like she's
carrying a No. 1 headsail or bigger

The yard that did my R&R used 5200 and then glassed over the seam.  I doubt my 
keel will ever separate from the hull.

Erik:

Despite Chuck's expertise, I don't recommend using 5200, or even doing the 
repair as he suggests.  I did a R&R of my keel, several years ago, and never 
had my problem return.  My problem? When the boat was hauled, the keel was 
loose, so loose that I could move it.  Upon removing the keel, we discovered a 
void around the forward keel bolt.  When we flushed each keel bolt hole, a foul 
smell emanated from the forward keel bolt hole.  AThe yard ground the top of 
the keel and athe bottom of the stub, epoxied the keel back 0onto the stub, and 
filled the void with about a gallon of epoxy.  After tightening the keel bolts, 
they covered the smile with fiberglass cloth and epoxy.  The smile never 
returned, and no leaks after many years.

Whenever you use 5200, it's almost impossible to remove the parts that were 
assembled with it.

We had a grand weekend on the 'Round Saltspring Island Race. A few of

Re: Stus-List OpenCPN fans?

2013-05-21 Thread Russ & Melody

Hey Joe,

I've used the old CPN on a Panasonic CF-48 (race boat) and Thinkpad 
42 (my boat), XP SP2 or 3, with okay results for the geek oriented. 
Sometimes it would need some coaching on the comm ports for GPS & AIS 
data. So it wasn't good for the skipper who has the CF-48 onboard. He 
also has a plotter so it was a minor irritation.


I am looking forward to getting both machines loaded with the current 
OpenCPN, with AIS. I also have the CM-93 to install (for evaluation 
purposes). Hopefully all this is done before the VanIsle360 starts.


Too bad their world chart effort hit the ditch last year.

Cheers, Russ

Hi Jim,

The CPN community was gathering 2700 world charts posted on the 
Internet into a single source file when a US govment agency trashed 
the effort... or something like that. You need to read a few pages at 
the beginning and near the end of the thread to get the jist.

great guys and a valiant effort... for naught perhaps.
