Re: Stus-List furuno radars

2013-10-23 Thread Rich Knowles
Radar scanners are generally designed to work with a particular display or 
series of displays. They are complex and the interconnection will reflect how 
the various functions of the radar system are shared between the scanner and 
display. Make no assumptions. 

I suggest contacting a knowledgeable dealer or service rep who will be able to 
answer your question.

Some of the Coasties in our area have a little trouble understanding what 
constitutes a No Discharge zone. I watched a couple of issue a citation to a 
boat for his bilge pump discharge in an area that is definitely not a no 
discharge zone. That issue was cleared up after a conversation with the 
regional commander of the coasties!

Okay guys,



I'm planning a new waste system.  I'm going with the Raritan PHC head and a 
new holding tank.  I currently have a very old Jabsco head and a bladder 
holding tank.  I really don't like the bladder.  It has worked okay but, one 
day it will fail and it will be disgusting!  I just want rid of it...



I'm looking for ideas on the design.  i.e.  Where to install the tank and 
how to pipe it.  I've been reading and I was thinking to try and install about 
a 16-18 gallon tank, that conforms to the hull, behind the head.  However, 
after a closer look on Saturday, I'm not sure there is enough room there.  I 
was kind of hoping to install it there in order to pipe up a gravity drain for 
when I'm in an area where that is possible.  This would also keep the hose runs 
very short and I could easily vent and pipe the pump-out fitting in the side 
deck above.



Of course that would have the need of piping up hill to get into the tank 
and make it a bit harder to clear the waste from the hose with every flush.  
Then I heard it might be better to have the waste run downhill to the tank.  
That would create the need of pumping overboard if I were in an area that 
allowed it and the need of another pump.  



I'm not exactly sure how the pump-out system works when having it done at a 
pump-out station.  Is it a fitting that attaches to the deck fitting and sucks 
it up the hose or, do they run a smaller hose down into the tank and suck it 
directly out with their hose?



Anyway,  As always, any and all advice, insights and colorful comments are 
appreciated!

First, I've had both the Raritan PH-II and Jabsco heads. My opinion is the 
Raritan is better. I have Jabsco now and it works well also. 

Now the real reason for the post. I work on heads. People pay me nice $$ to fix 
them. My opinion - never rebuild a head pump. Instead install a new pump 
assembly. Cost differential isn't that great and you'll eliminate ALL sources

Hi Tim,

Well after months reading on this topic, I've read and re-read posts 
on forums from Peggie Hall "the head queen"  (nice right?!). She is 
the author of a definitive book called "Get Rid of Boat Odors"  and 
her 2 top choices in Heads are the Lavac, which works on a vacuum 
created by closing the lid, and the Raritan PH-II The raritan PHc is 
the same bowl and pump but sits on a smaller pedestal.  She goes on 
to say that if you are mostly on the boat with the same crew the 
Lavac is best.. She says it takes some learning to use properly and 
that may be problematic if you have changing crew or day sailing 
guests.  She said in that regard the PH-II/ PHC is the best 
choice.  At least that is how I interpreted all that I've 
read.  Very simple design and works best and more reliably that any other head.


So, we sail with guest maybe 40% of the time and I decided the 
Raritan was the way to go.

Re: Stus-List Centerboard models

The national PHRF database shows a 35-3 with an average PHRF at 117 and the CB 
version at 129. You should be talking to your local PHRF gurus.

  I am a little surprised that the cb model has the same PHRF as non-cb. At 
least with my 90s era  keel/cb vs the fin keel, we rate a higher. Further, in a 
reasonable breeze (>6-8 knots), we point with
  all the go fast boats with the board down and good sails.

  Downwind, we hold our own in such breezes by raising the board and are seldom 
rolled.

  In light air, we suffer downwind dragging a keel/cb trunk about 12 inches 
thick thru the water! Upwind we also suffer, but the pain is less since at 
least we still point with the go fast boats (as we fall behind!).

  Harold, 


  I switched to all rope (VPC) using the same sheaves with no issues over 2 
seasons.  If weight were an issue I would go with Dyneema with a cover for the 
clutch.


  The PHRF ratings are the same for the 2 models.  I've never sailed against a 
c/b model. (I need to race Chef Dave next year!) I would think that with the 
board down you would point well.  Maybe the main (like many of us) has lost its 
shape over the years?

Re: Stus-List New Head and holding tank system.

2013-10-23 Thread Gary Nylander
Before you replace another pump, try headlube - available at West Marine (and 
others). I was about to venture into another replacement project when this was 
suggested. My pump wasn't drawing water from the thru hull, but was pumping OK 
into the holding tank. I put the lube in, and after about 15 pumps, here came 
the water! No project.

  Danny, what are the reasons you are going with the Raritan PHC (there are 
many options out there)?  I am done with replacing the pump annually on the 
Wilcox Crittenden / Thetford Headmate head in Mojito and was looking at a 
replacement.  Now, if only the pumps were interchangeable between models...

  Thanks,

  Tim

Okay guys,

I'm planning a new waste system.  I'm going with the Raritan PHC head and a

day it will fail and it will be disgusting!  I just want rid of it...

Re: Stus-List Part numbers for 3GMF seawater pump

2013-10-23 Thread Bill Coleman

If you are talking about the front cover and it's seal, why not get a
Speedseal cover?  I ordered one several years ago, it got here from UK in a
week, works great.  Uses an O ring instead of a gasket, on and off in a
minute with no tools.
You could probably give dimensions and get the right one.

Alan,
The closest looking picture that I've come up with for my pump is at:
http://www.pumpvendor.com/Yanmar_721575-42702.html
It's all very confusing when there is no name or number anywhere on the 
pump body.

Re: Stus-List Booze on Board?

2013-10-23 Thread Colin Kilgour
I'm late to this thread but will chime in anyway.

But first a couple clarifications -

1. Booze doesn't get any better once it's in the bottle.  It's not like
wine.  A 12 year old scotch that's been on board for 6 years is still a 12
year old scotch.  (But it doesn't get worse, either!)

2. The Pusser's you buy from the BVI has very little to do with the Royal
Navy.  The guy who started it was simply an astute marketer who bought out
the long dormant Pusser's name from the Royal Navy.

We tend to keep a selection of rums on board - some for sipping, some for
mixing, and some for Ti Punch (a favourite in the French Islands)

After that - there's a modest selection of gin, vodka, and rye

And wine and beer are typically brought on board as needed and consumed
fairly soon afterwards.  Our boat's in the tropics, which is not a great
climate for storing wine and beer - so best just to buy enough for your
immediate need.

Cheers,
Colin

The 2014 Northeast was a great success.  Many of you posted words of
gratitude directed at me over the last few weeks.  For that I thank you
sincerely, however, I take little credit.

Without YOU showing up and participating it would have been, well, me
standing alone at the end of the dock drinking Old Yankee Ale directly from
a tap for three days...

The people to thank are Dave Rich, Andrew Burton, Rob Ball, Stu, C&C

forgot, but most of all the thanks go to YOU for showing up.

Please respond and share the survey link I am attaching.

Stus-List mounting sprit on the deck

2013-10-23 Thread Tom Buscaglia
At the C&C rendezvous on Thetis Island in BC some of us were 
discussing this with a fellow fro UK sails.  Options I am considering 
are having a SS extension to my bow roller to extend a foot or two 
off the bow for the asym.  Some thought it also advisable to have a 
short extension on the masthead to extend the halyard out about 6-8" 
as a permanent mount to allow for the use of furling on the asym 
without any potential fouling of the stays..


The strength of the bow roller is a concern.  But I suspect it is 
pretty solid.


The spar options looks interesting as well.

I'd love to have the thoughts from our crack team of experts in this idea...

At the C&C rendezvous on Thetis Island in BC some of us were discussing
this with a fellow fro UK sails.  Options I am considering are having a
SS extension to my bow roller to extend a foot or two off the bow for
the asym.  Some thought it also advisable to have a short extension on
the masthead to extend the halyard out about 6-8" as a permanent mount
to allow for the use of furling on the asym without any potential
fouling of the stays..

The strength of the bow roller is a concern.  But I suspect it is pretty
solid.  

The spar options looks interesting as well.

I'd love to have the thoughts from our crack team of experts in this
idea...

Not sure if it helps, but my part #’s are:

Stus-List Installing a garboard drain plug on 38MkII

Does anyone have pics or advice on how best to install a garboard drain

Shallow bildge and external lead keel make it pretty difficult to have
something that is flush on the outside yet encompass the lowest point in the

Re: Stus-List New Head and holding tank system.

2013-10-23 Thread Tim Goodyear
Gary, thanks, yes, that has worked well for me on pumping issues.  I have
two other current issues that I'm working on:

   - The last couple of times I've arrived at the boat there has been
   'stuff' in the bowl; the joker valve is not doing it's job and is allowing
   what's left in the discharge hose to flow slowly back.  I left the system
   soaking in white wine vinegar last night and will see if that helps.  The
   head only receives recycled beer and rum, the joker valve was replaced last
   year, but still seems to need maintenance much more regularly than I want
   to get my hands into that area.  The last two occasions I've used the
   rebuild kit I have cracked the plastic housing for the flush water inlet /
   outlet, meaning more, hard-to-get-hold-of parts.
   - The pump handle is broken off - we were racing two weeks ago and a
   novice tried to use the head while we were going upwind in > 20 knots...
   The pump and he suffered bruising.  This means I need to source parts for
   the pump anyway this winter, and given my satisfaction level overall caused
   me to think of something better.

Thanks,

Tim

Re: Stus-List Installing a garboard drain plug on 38MkII

2013-10-23 Thread Petar Horvatic
When you say installed, you mean drilled.

 

So would you drill vertically down in the bildge, then horizontally from
outside so the two holes meet, then oversize the outside to accommodate the
plug housing?

Drain plug housing I am looking at has four retaining bolt holes.  Seems not
a good idea to put self tapping screws there, so that means you need to
through-bolt. And if that's so, how do you put washers and nuts on the
inside?  

 

Even if I didn't drill vertically down it seems that you can't encompass
lowest point in the bildge, have horizontal drain plug and through-bolt all
four retaining bolts.So What gives?

 

These pics are pretty good, but it looks like he just put self tapping
bronze screws.

I am a little surprised that the cb model has the same PHRF as non-cb. At
least with my 90s era  keel/cb vs the fin keel, we rate a higher. Further,
in a reasonable breeze (>6-8 knots), we point with

all the go fast boats with the board down and good sails.

 

Downwind, we hold our own in such breezes by raising the board and are
seldom rolled.

 

In light air, we suffer downwind dragging a keel/cb trunk about 12 inches
thick thru the water! Upwind we also suffer, but the pain is less since at
least we still point with the go fast boats (as we fall behind!).

I switched to all rope (VPC) using the same sheaves with no issues over 2

the clutch.

 

The PHRF ratings are the same for the 2 models.  I've never sailed against a
c/b model. (I need to race Chef Dave next year!) I would think that with the
board down you would point well.  Maybe the main (like many of us) has lost

a relatively heavy boat I dont know. I club race white sail and will have to
change fairly soon because of wear at the jammers and beginnings of fraying
of the wire. I would tend to go with wire to rope again partly because of
the type of sheaves presently employed so need a strong reason to change.

While I am on the site, anyone with a 35-3 full keel who races against a
35-3 with keel centreboard have any idea of performance comparisons between
them. My boat is a centre board version. We do well enough, feel that we do
not point as high as other boats in our PHRF fleet especially in heavier
air, no other 35-3s in that fleet, but we run well and often overhaul boats
that may have got to the windward mark before us.

Re: Stus-List New Head and holding tank system.

Hi Tim, Well after months reading on this topic, I've read and re-read posts on 
forums from Peggie Hall "the head queen"  (nice right?!). She is the author of 
a definitive book called "Get Rid of Boat Odors"  and her 2 top choices in 
Heads are the Lavac, which works on a vacuum created by closing the lid, and 
the Raritan PH-II The raritan PHc is the same bowl and pump but sits on a 
smaller pedestal.  She goes on to say that if you are mostly on the boat with 
the same crew the Lavac is best.. She says it takes some learning to use 
properly and that may be problematic if you have changing crew or day sailing 
guests.  She said in that regard the PH-II/ PHC is the best choice.  At least 
that is how I interpreted all that I've read.  Very simple design and works 
best and more reliably that any other head. So, we sail with guest maybe 40% of 
the time and I decided the Raritan was the way to go. Danny

Re: Stus-List Installing a garboard drain plug on 38MkII

2013-10-23 Thread Hoyt, Mike

There is no vertical drilling.  In all the pictures you have seen the
hole is drilled in the keel stub above the lead portion of the keel.
 
Garbord drains are common practice at the boat yard where we launch our
boats.  Most are the Perko ones you have shown in the Dan.Pfeiffer link.
The purpose in our boatyard is to prevent water buildup in the bilge but
there will still be some water there up to the leve of the bottom of the
drain hole.  
 
I used stainless screws but perhaps should have used bronze.  Also set
in Epoxy in one case and in 3M 5200 in the otehr and faired over using
thickened epoxy.  Some owners do not fair around the flange.  It is
basically no different than a thru hull.

When you say installed, you mean drilled.

 

So would you drill vertically down in the bildge, then horizontally from
outside so the two holes meet, then oversize the outside to accommodate
the plug housing?

Drain plug housing I am looking at has four retaining bolt holes.  Seems
not a good idea to put self tapping screws there, so that means you need
to through-bolt. And if that's so, how do you put washers and nuts on
the inside?  

 

Even if I didn't drill vertically down it seems that you can't encompass
lowest point in the bildge, have horizontal drain plug and through-bolt
all four retaining bolts.So What gives?

 

These pics are pretty good, but it looks like he just put self tapping
bronze screws.

Alex;

I've just started reading this e-mail string, so forgive me if what I am about 
to say has already been covered.

All of the prop manufacturers I've dealt with offer a way to get a 
recommendation for the proper prop size on their website. You provide the HP of 
your engine (and maybe the model and max torque information), the gear 
reduction (output RPM) and max engine speed, and information on the 
size/model/weight of the boat. They tell you which prop options would be 
optimal.

For my 15,000 pound 38, with 36 hp diesel @3000 max RPM, and a 1.76:1 reduction 
Gori recommended a 16x10, Martec a 16x 10.5, and Flex-o-fold a
15x11 (each in 2-blade, I'd need to look for the 3-blade recommendations).

On the face of it, 14x12 looks like a lot of prop. State of the art electric 
drives (using AC controllers or DC Pulse Width Modulation) used in industrial 
vehicles can be designed to produce max torque at under 10 RPM, but the torque 
produced generally declines as RPM increases.

My 16x10.5 Martec is roughly equivalent to a 14x14, I'm told. It is handling 
about 300 ft-lbs of max torque at about 1300 prop RPM. (Torque load falls off 
above that point as you approach 3000 engine/1700 prop RPM). Don't know what 
the torque curve is for your electric drive, but I wonder if it might be unable 
to reach a high enough RPM before the torque load maxes out the RPM.

If you've not done so already, I'd suggest that you talk to the folks at Martec 
(and the manufacturer of your electric drive) to get a prop recommendation.

Sam,
 I found a used geared Gori for my 27 and it works fine in forward and 
reverse. I had hoped to find a 3 blade folder of some kind to minimise 
vibration but when I checked the manufacturers specifications there were none 
available in a small enough diameter. That was a few years ago so it might not 
be true now.

How big a deal is the maintenance on the Max Prop?
Is it just a matter of greasing the prop every couple of years or is there 
more? - I pull 

Re: Stus-List Folding/feathering Props

2013-10-23 Thread Rick Brass
Vibration can be the result of the clearance between the tip of the prop and
the bottom of the boat. The rule of thumb, as I understand it, is that the
clearance should be at least 10-15% of the prop diameter. More is better.

 

So if you have a 16" diameter prop you should have a minimum of 2" clearance
between prop and hull. More is better for vibration dur to pressure wave and
for efficient flow.

 

The old 17" prop on my boat caused vibration. The 16' prop doesn't seem to.
Of course, that might be caused by different blade shapes, or balance, or
whatever. YMMV.

According to rumour, PYI told someone that the 2-blade MaxProp can cause
some vibration issues between the tip of the prop blade and the flat on the
bottom of the bustle on some C&C's. This is probably what is happening with
ours, since it is smooth as silk at some RPM's and will vibrate the fillings
out of your teeth at others. The reason I don't think it's the prop itself
is that a standard out-of-balance prop will cause worse vibration at higher
RPM's, but ours smooths out quite a bit at the top end .

Sam,
 I found a used geared Gori for my 27 and it works fine in forward
and reverse. I had hoped to find a 3 blade folder of some kind to minimise
vibration but when I checked the manufacturers specifications there were
none available in a small enough diameter. That was a few years ago so it
might not be true now.

Good experiences; thanks for sharing.
Looks like two or three endorsements for the Max Prop; about the same
against the Martec; one for the Flexofold; ...and a Gori replacing a Martec!
couple of questions:
How big a deal is the maintenance on the Max Prop?
Is it just a matter of greasing the prop every couple of years or is there
more? - I pull the boat out of the lake every October; so it wouldn't be too
much of a concern.
I still have the old prop on the shaft. Am I correct in assuming that the
taper is a standard SAE? I'm going to need to know for sure before I order.
(Probably safer to remove the prop and measure for peace of mind!) Any more
information / experiences / insights welcome.

Re: Stus-List Limber holes

2013-10-23 Thread Rick Brass
You drill a small-ish hole through the bulkhead at what is to be the top of
your limber hole. Then you used your handy-dandy Dremel tool to enlarge the
hole, being careful to not damage the inner skin of the hull. And, finally,
you paint epoxy on the inner skin and the wood you have just exposed to
revent (or maybe just delay) delaminating of the bulkhead.

Subject: Stus-List Limber holes

 

I recently removed our water tank under the port main cabin bunk for some
much needed cleaning of the hull interior.  Come to find out there is only
one limber hole at the forward end where the piping runs through.
Unfortunately this is not the low spot so any water that gets in under the
tank sits and ferments.  Question is how does one drill a drain hole without
also drilling into the hull interior skin??  It would be through the
interior bunk wall.  The boat is hauled.

 

All thoughts welcomed

Re: Stus-List Installing a garboard drain plug on 38MkII

2013-10-23 Thread Rich Knowles
Peter:  Using a 90 deg. angle drill, I drilled a 1/8" pilot hole out from the 
interior of the boat at the intersection of the bilge wall and floor at the 
lowest point in the bilge. 

I then used a Forstner bit the same diameter as the outside of the flange of 
the drain casting to create a recessed hole in the hull exterior the depth of 
the thickness of the flange plus a bit for caulking. 

Once the outer hole was drilled, I drilled the hole for the neck of the drain 
casting deep enough to allow the casting to sit flush with the hull. I then 
used a 1/2" drill at an up angle into the bilge floor to create the water 
passage from the bilge floor into the casting. Three 1 1/4" #10 flat head self 
tapping screws and some 5200 hold and seal the casting in place. I note that 
the flange straddles the hull/keel joint with the majority of the fitting and 
two of the three screws in the hull. The third screw is in the lead. No 
problems to date. That includes dropping and replacing the keel during my 
recent post grounding repair. 

There are nylon or bronze plugs with hex sockets available if the notion of 
drag caused by the protruding square bolt head impeding perfect water flow 
bothers the racing mentality at all. Personally, I can't tell the difference:). 
One could also cut the bolt head off the threaded portion and saw a kerf for a 
large screwdriver in the end of the threaded bit. 

That little gadget is one of the best additions to the boat as it ensures the 
bilge dries out completely every haul out and stays that way. I leave a large 
note to myself to replace the plug in the spring:)

Did an offshore passage in a boat with a composting head, and heartily 
recommend the concept. The only downside I found to the installation I 
experienced was the need to climb up onto the head – this one was pretty tall.

 

I removed the holding tank on my 38 a few years ago and installed in its place 
a Lectra-San, a 9 gallon tank, and a group 24 deep cycle battery to power the 
Lectra-San and the windlass. In the past 4 years or so I’ve never had to worry 
about a pumpout or overboard discharge – though I have had to explain to a

heard it might be better to have the waste run downhill to the tank.  That 
would create the need of pumping overboard if I were in an area that allowed it

I'm not exactly sure how the pump-out system works when having it done at a

Re: Stus-List NOW SOLAR VENTS AGAIN

2013-10-23 Thread Rick Brass
The 4" Nicro vent goes on sale at West Marine from time to time. I bought
the one in my foredeck hatch for $99 at West Marine last spring. They are
normally available on E-Bay for about the same cost, though you might need
to watch for a few weeks  to find a new one at a good price.

 

Do you just need to replace the battery in your existing vent? You can get
them at Batteries Plus. Just remove the old one and take it with you to make
sure you get the right size and AH capacity. That is what I did several
years ago (when the vent that came in the cabin-top hatch of my boat stopped
working at night) and what I plan to do again when I get around to replacing
the battery that is getting weak.

I recall a whole thread a while ago concerning solar powered vents such as
the NICRO day night I installed in my boat in 2003 which I believe has a
dead battery amongst a few other minor problems.

 

Now for my question.  Can you get a solar vent which, like the NICRO pulls
out of the deck fitting and can be capped, for example when racing etc?

 

I bought one on EBAY and left it in storage till it came time to look, and
found that the one I bought gets bolted on, and stays there.

 

Cheers!

Re: Stus-List furuno radars

2013-10-23 Thread Martin DeYoung
JP,

I have installed radars on 2 C&Cs, a 1980 36 and a 1971 43.

On the 36 I used the Questus gimbaled mount on a backstay pole.  On the 43 I 
installed a stand-alone pole (+- 12' off the deck) next to the backstay with 
the ability to tilt.  In both cases the power and signal cable was run from the 
nav station under the cockpit then up to the antenna.

I have owned a Furuno radar but do not know if the antennas within a model/year 
range are interchangeable.  My guess is there might be some compatibility 
within models but not across the entire product range.

I do recommend you pick a power (i.e. range) and installation that matches your 
planned usage.  We went for better coverage within a few miles over better long 
range (12+ miles) as most of our trips where limited visibility is an issue 
will be in PNW waters not offshore.

My father-in-law installed a cheap radar on his classic (old wood) power boat. 
I was onboard to be the designated driver for a foggy Seattle Christmas Ship 
booze cruise a few years back.  When I went to use the radar to make sense of 
the Charlie Foxtrot of floating traffic stuffed into Lake Union I found his 
"looks better that way" antenna installation made it impossible to see anything 
within a ½ mile radius.  In Lake Union almost everything is within ½ mile.  His 
Christmas lights did look nice though.

Designated No Discharge Zones mean NO
  discharge. In many of these zones, they are just as worried about
  adding nutrients as anything else. They don't care how you
  pretreated the stuff, you cannot pump it overboard in places such
  as Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island, which are designated
  No-Discharge. You can legally discharge from a Lectrasan system
  within 3 miles of shore, EXCEPT in a designated no-discharge zone.
  Untreated effluent cannot be discharged within 3 miles anywhere.

Re: Stus-List New Head and holding tank system.

2013-10-23 Thread Rick Brass
No Discharge means NOTHING overboard within 3 NM of the coast or the Colregs 
Line on the chart. There are a few official No Discharge areas along the east 
coast, with the largest being the waters of Rhode Island and the Florida Keys. 
(I found it ironic that, a couple of months after Rhode Island had the whole 
state declared a no discharge zone, the city of Providence pumped 625,000 
gallons of raw sewage into Naraganset Bay; municipalities don’t need to comply 
with the same regs that we do.) You can find a complete list of official No 
Discharge zones on the USCG website.

 

For the rest of the east coast, the rule is no discharge of UNTREATED WASTE 
within 3 miles of shore or the Colregs line. A Type 1 MSD, Lectra-San being 
probably the most common, treats the waste. Actually a Lectra-San, at one time, 
had to meet more restrictive standards for treatment than a municipal water 
treatment system. Go figure. So discharge from a Lectra-San is legal almost 
anywhere on boats up to 65 feet in length in recreational use or as an 
Uninspected Passenger Vessels.

 

I’d need to look at the USCG website to see if the Great Lakes are a No 
Discharge zone, or if the discharge of untreated waste is what is restricted. 
Since I’m unlikely to be going there anytime soon, I’ve never looked at the 
requirements.

 

I kept a small holding tank in my system for use in No Discharge areas, but so 
far I’ve not been in one so I’ve not had to use it.

 

And as I read the information, many of the no discharge zones (like the Keys 
and Assiteage and Chincoteage in Chesapeake Bay) are no discharge zones because 
of the impact of the organic compounds and nitrogen compounds that remain in 
the treated waste on sensitive marine environments (wetlands) and fisheries 
like oyster beds where you might contribute to an algae bloom.

Re: Stus-List mounting sprit on the deck

2013-10-23 Thread Pete Shelquist
Niall - 

Any pics or other recommendations would be a huge help.   Like I mentioned
below, the strength of the deck is one of my big concerns and I'm interested
in how, or if, you reinforced that.

 

Thanks, 
Pete

Hi I designed and installed a SS removable sprit on my C&C 41.

Works like a charm.

I'll send you pics, if you like. Or you can shoot me some questions if you
like.

Cheers,

 

Niall.

The strength of the bow roller is a concern.  But I suspect it is pretty
solid.  

The spar options looks interesting as well.

I'd love to have the thoughts from our crack team of experts in this idea...

This will be an interesting thread.  The tack point is always a marvel of
boatyard engineering so I can't wait to get some ideas.

Re: Stus-List New Head and holding tank system.

2013-10-23 Thread Jack Brennan
Rick:

The Keys are a no discharge zone, but they are also a no pump-out station zone, 
too, so you can guess what happens to the stuff in the holding tanks. 

Biscayne Bay has two pump-out stations at marinas that I’m aware of, and both 
are nearly inaccessible due to traffic around the docks. I can’t think of any 
in Biscayne National Park or the Middle Keys until you get to Boot Key Harbor 
in Marathon, which has a pump-out boat, I believe. 

There are something like 50-70,000 registered boats in South Florida. Many in 
Miami-Dade and Monroe counties never get three miles out because that means 
passing through the reefs that form Hawk’s Channel on the Atlantic side or 
wending a path through Florida Bay to the Gulf of Mexico.

Before you get too alarmed, though ... Miami-Dade broke a sewage line 10 or 15 
years ago and dumped somewhere in the neighborhood of 10 million gallons into 
the bay. Everyone feared disaster, and I’m sure it didn’t do the reefs any 
good, but all traces of the spill had vanished in a couple of days. 

A lot of people think the dolphins put more poop in the bay than people do.

No Discharge means NOTHING overboard within 3 NM of the coast or the Colregs 
Line on the chart. There are a few official No Discharge areas along the east 
coast, with the largest being the waters of Rhode Island and the Florida Keys. 
(I found it ironic that, a couple of months after Rhode Island had the whole 
state declared a no discharge zone, the city of Providence pumped 625,000 
gallons of raw sewage into Naraganset Bay; municipalities don’t need to comply 
with the same regs that we do.) You can find a complete list of official No 
Discharge zones on the USCG website.

 

For the rest of the east coast, the rule is no discharge of UNTREATED WASTE 
within 3 miles of shore or the Colregs line. A Type 1 MSD, Lectra-San being 
probably the most common, treats the waste. Actually a Lectra-San, at one time, 
had to meet more restrictive standards for treatment than a municipal water 
treatment system. Go figure. So discharge from a Lectra-San is legal almost 
anywhere on boats up to 65 feet in length in recreational use or as an 
Uninspected Passenger Vessels.

 

I’d need to look at the USCG website to see if the Great Lakes are a No 
Discharge zone, or if the discharge of untreated waste is what is restricted. 
Since I’m unlikely to be going there anytime soon, I’ve never looked at the 
requirements.

 

I kept a small holding tank in my system for use in No Discharge areas, but so 
far I’ve not been in one so I’ve not had to use it.

 

And as I read the information, many of the no discharge zones (like the Keys 
and Assiteage and Chincoteage in Chesapeake Bay) are no discharge zones because 
of the impact of the organic compounds and nitrogen compounds that remain in 
the treated waste on sensitive marine environments (wetlands) and fisheries 
like oyster beds where you might contribute to an algae bloom.

Ah Are you sure about the lectrasan?  You seem to be implying that their 
use is legal in a no discharge zone?

  I removed the holding tank on my 38 a few years ago and installed in its 
place a Lectra-San, a 9 gallon tank, and a group 24 deep cycle battery to power 
the Lectra-San and the windlass. In the past 4 years or so I’ve never had to 
worry about a pumpout or overboard discharge – though I have had to explain to 
a couple of Coasties and USCG Auxilliary folks what “No Discharge” means and 
the CG rules for a type I MSD.

  I'm not really sure what the banana would do...  Lol

  I have thought about the porta potty and then thought the composting toilet 
would have been a better idea.  I'm still not completely convinced that it 
isn't.  It is an easy install and for the amount of time we need it, it may 
well be a good solution.  However, it grossed out the admiral.  So, I'm on to 
this solution of a good holding tank design.
