Nice looking boat. The upholstery and exterior labeling on Starship
Enterprise are bold.  Is that a drop keel or shoal draft?   Is first mate
commonly known as Spock to the crew?  How about "wherever we go, we have
fun" that's my prime directive nowadays.

As you may have guessed, my boat's name is based on a Lucille Ball / Desi
Arnez-produced 1960's failed train-wreck NBC television series . . .

 

. . . which led to highly-rated syndication, five spin-off television series
and 12 feature films, not to mention decades and decades of merchandising
dollars for Paramount/Viacom. 

 

For me, though, the Starship Enterprise was an "escape vehicle" - when I got
home from grade school in the 70s, I could leave all the pressures and
troubles behind, turn on WPIX channel 11, and I'll be exploring the final
frontier's strange new worlds, seeking out new life and new civilizations .
. .

 

In 1980, I bought my first sailboat, an O'Day 7-11 sailing dinghy, pretty
much right after the release of The Motion Picture, a wholly lousy film on
may levels, except for the Enterprise itself. Once again, I felt my
imagination was able to escape the day-to-day life in suburbia. There could
be no other name. The sailboat had to be named Enterprise. 

 

When I turned 18, after I got the whole "you're a man now" speech from my
father, I aptly decided to cut school to see the third movie with some
friends for my birthday, and got the worst birthday present ever - the
Enterprise exploded from self-destruct over Planet Genesis. My escape
vehicle was gone. Adulthood slapped me in the face - hard.

 

Fortunately, a couple of years later, I went to see the fourth feature film
- a time-travel story to rescue humpback whales from 20th-Century earth. At
the very end, Kirk and crew were delivered to a brand new Enterprise with a
hull number of NCC-1701-A. The escape vehicle was back and my imagination
could, one again, boldly go.

 

Since then, we have seen several future versions of the famed starship;
1701-B, 1701-C, 1701-D, 1701-E and even a brief glimpse of the 1701-J. 

 

So, like the series, I decided that all of my future vessels will also carry
the name Enterprise, and I'll have my very own escape vehicle to get away
from the pressure of work and life while exploring LI Sound and the
surrounding areas. 

 

As I tell my crew, when sailing on the Enterprise, we have one Prime
Directive - Wherever we go, we go boldly.

 

All the best,

 

Edd

2014-03-07 Thread Danny Haughey
I found this on wikipedia... "The following excerpt from Star Trek Guide (April 
17, 1967, p. 25) instructs writers for the original Star Trek TV series on how 
to select stardates for their scripts:[3]"We invented "Stardate" to avoid 
continually mentioning Star Trek's century (actually, about two hundred years 
from now), and getting into arguments about whether this or that would have 
developed by then. Pick any combination of four numbers plus a percentage 
point, use it as your story's stardate. For example, 1313.5 is twelve o'clock 
noon of one day and 1314.5 would be noon of the next day. Each percentage point 
is roughly equivalent to one-tenth of one day. The progression of stardates in 
your script should remain constant but don't worry about whether or not there 
is a progression from other scripts. Stardates are a mathematical formula which 
varies depending on location in the galaxy, velocity of travel, and other 
factors, can vary widely from episode to episode. DannyLolita1973 Viking

Just as a note, Star Trek was one of the first shows to feature an
"ensemble" cast.  Much has been made of how each of the four central
characters, Kirk, Spock, Doc and Scotty, were positioned in the Myers
Briggs personality quadrant.  Googling "Myers Briggs Star Trek" yields some
very interesting articles on the perceived placement of each of character.
Further, you will discover more on the personality placement of characters
in Star Trek, The Next Generation and Star Wars.  Very interesting reads.

To keep this sailing related, as a boat skipper, you manage your crew.
During a race, crew dynamics can influence the performance of the boat.
Having insight into your crews personality types may help you, as a boat
manager, fuse your crew into a cohesive working unit.

Here's a fun way to find out who your crew really is.  Have each of them go
to the link below and take the test.  Next time you're in a relaxed crew
environment, ask them to disclose the results of the test.  Enjoy.

To keep this sailing related, as a boat skipper, you manage your crew.  During 
a race, crew dynamics can influence the performance of the boat.  Having 
insight into your crews personality types may help you, as a boat manager, fuse 
your crew into a cohesive working unit.

Here's a fun way to find out who your crew really is.  Have each of them go to

Subject: Stus-List  Now Boat Names

As you may have guessed, my boat's name is based on a Lucille Ball / Desi 
Arnez-produced 1960’s failed train-wreck NBC television series . . . 
 
. . . which led to highly-rated syndication, five spin-off television series 
and 12 feature films, not to mention decades and decades of merchandising 
dollars for Paramount/Viacom. 
 
For me, though, the Starship Enterprise was an “escape vehicle” — when I got 
home from grade school in the 70s, I could leave all the pressures and troubles 
behind, turn on WPIX channel 11, and I’ll be exploring the final frontier’s 
strange new worlds, seeking out new life and new civilizations . . .
 
In 1980, I bought my first sailboat, an O’Day 7-11 sailing dinghy, pretty much 
right after the release of The Motion Picture, a wholly lousy film on may 
levels, except for the Enterprise itself. Once again, I felt my imagination was 
able to escape the day-to-day life in suburbia. There could be no other name. 
The sailboat had to be named Enterprise. 
 
When I turned 18, after I got the whole “you’re a man now” speech from my 
father, I aptly decided to cut school to see the third movie with some friends 
for my birthday, and got the worst birthday present ever — the Enterprise 
exploded from self-destruct over Planet Genesis. My escape vehicle was gone. 
Adulthood slapped me in the face - hard.
 
Fortunately, a couple of years later, I went to see the fourth feature film - a 
time-travel story to rescue humpback whales from 20th-Century earth. At the 
very end, Kirk and crew were delivered to a brand new Enterprise with a hull 
number of NCC-1701-A. The escape vehicle was back and my imagination could, one 
again, boldly go.
 
Since then, we have seen several future versions of the famed starship; 1701-B, 
1701-C, 1701-D, 1701-E and even a brief glimpse of the 1701-J. 
 
So, like the series, I decided that all of my future vessels will also carry 
the name Enterprise, and I’ll have my very own escape vehicle to get away from 
the pressure of work and life while exploring LI Sound and the surrounding 
areas. 
 
As I tell my crew, when sailing on the Enterprise, we have one Prime Directive 
— Wherever we go, we go boldly.
 
All the best,
 
Edd

2014-03-07 Thread Edd Schillay
Chuck and Ken,

Danny is spot-on with his explanation of how Stardates worked with the 
writers of the original series (and all later series). The show’s creators 
wanted to come up with a way to allocate for the passage of time when traveling 
at the speed of light or faster — Interestingly enough it was determined that 
no starship ever did go faster than the speed of light, but was merely 
traveling through a warped space “bubble” created by the ship’s engines (but 
that’s a whole other discussion.)

As to the use of Stardates, many Trekkers and Trekkies who write their 
own stories or keep their own logs, use a “lazy” star date system using the 
date itself, today being Stardate 201403.07. Personally, this method always 
irked me — a numeric decimal system where the the two numbers to the left of 
the decimal point can never go beyond 12 and the numbers to the right of the 
decimal point never going beyond 31. 

So to answer Ken’s question, I devised a new way and any Stardate on my 
blog can be calculated back to an Gregorian “Earth Date”. Hence, today is 
Stardate 11418.1.

The first number, 1, represents the number of centennials after the 
first centennial in which man has travelled into space. 0 would be 1900-1999, 1 
would be years 2000-2099, 2 would be years 2100-2199 and so on. 

The next two numbers, 14, represents the year in that centennial - 
2014. 

The last two numbers and the decimal place represent the percentage of 
the year that has passed. In this case, March 7 is 18.1% into the calendar 
year. 

So, my birthday was Stardate 6643.3. September 11 was Stardate 10169.6. 
The day I commissioned my C&C 37+ as the Enterprise-B was Stardate 10544.7.

And yes, I’m well aware that if I used my brain for something more 
worthwhile, we could have world peace and the end of all diseases by now.


All the best,

Edd

Dwight,

Thanks. It’s a Keel/Centerboard model. As for exterior labeling, I 
figure if you’re going to name a boat Starship Enterprise, you might as well go 
all-out with the graphics. As several on the list will confirm, the back of the 
boat says:

ENTERPRISE
- NCC-1701-B - 
NEW YORK, NEW YORK
PLANET EARTH
ALPHA QUADRANT

As for the interior cushions — say good bye. We FINALLY got rid of the 
“Golden Girls” floral print design and now have a soft light brown microfiber - 
Will take some pics once they are installed. 

As for the race crew, we have our own crew dynamics and the roles have 
evolved on their own. My First Officer is my foredeck guy and crew boss, Dave. 

However, usually running my mainsail is my friend Kurt who I have known 
since third grade. Kurt is a computer programmer for Morgan Stanley and, 
amazingly enough, can calculate Time on Time standings in his head while on the 
course at any given time. And, while we do always call him by his name Kurt, he 
is often referred to by others, going as far back to age 8, as my “Spock”.

PS - His/Her/Their name is “Q”, not “Cue”

Thanks Edd

 

I agree the new cushions will be a nice upgrade to an already beautiful
yacht and you chose really good material. And thanks on the spelling of Q's
name; most powerful guy on any Star Trek episode I think.

 

Would Dave mind if you called him Spock just while on the boat, that would
sort of fit with your theme.

 

Are you pleased with keel centerboard, never had one so I don't know much
about how they sail, only what I read here sometimes.  Is the drop part
noisy with movement when down and under sail?

Dwight,

Initially, I was very enthusiastic about owning a keel/centerboard 
model — better pointing upwind, less drag downwind. The process of lowering and 
raising the board is quiet and it’s great to have some control over how much 
you can have down there depending on wind strength — Then, I joined this list 
and heard some horror stories about the cable breaking and the board doing 
(uninsured) damage to the keel. 

So each year, I have my bottom cleaners lower the board and check the 
cable. So far, each year (8 years running), they have said it was fine, but I 
dread the day where I have to replace the cable ($$$). 

Now that I’m transitioning to a more cruising-oriented sailing 
lifestyle, I have been playing with the idea of just glassing it over, forcing 
it to always remain in the up position and never having to inspect or maintain 
the cable again. 


All the best,

Edd

Re: Stus-List Now Boat Names

2014-03-07 Thread Edd Schillay
Joel,

You’re right. The cable itself would not be a major expense. 

The hauling the boat 10 feet in the air, perhaps as an emergency 
short-haul, and doing the repairs while in a travel lift, dismantling what’s 
there, snaking a new wire through and everything else gets expensive. And if it 
breaks on its own, I’m looking a major out-of-pocket keel repair. 

I’m not so sure about the resale value part. A shoal-draft keel has its 
advantages, especially for cruising. And, a next owner would not need to 
continually inspect and possibly repair the cable.

Upwind performance is the biggie. But, in less than 10, I find the boat 
runs slower VMG than with the board up. And in Western LI Sound, we don’t get 
above 10 all that often. As I said — playing with the idea. 


All the best,

Edd

I like all the ideas put forward so far. Maybe add a cell phone number

Stus-List British and other sports cars (now liquid electrical tape)

2014-03-07 Thread Marek Dziedzic
I use it for many things (including a quick whipping on occasion), but be aware 
that it has a tendency to dry out, even in the container that seems to be well 
locked. The solvents used in this product are very volatile.

Since it's still the middle of the latest Ice Age up here in the still frozen 
north, our boats are buried in ice and snow, and I got bored waiting for the 
Big Melt:

I found a marine product in the Binnacle that turns out to be very useful for 
touching up those wear spots on sports car convertible tops where they rub when 
the top is down: 
Star brite Liquid Electrical Tape. Comes in black, red, green, white and clear. 
Does a great job on my black top. Especially when I use the black. Probably 
works on dodgers and makes a good band-aid too, although I haven't tried that.

Edd,

I bet having the cable done when she's hauled is cheaper than the glass job.

I'd have trouble finding a lift that could accommodate 10 foot draft!  I
had to wait 3 days for the right tide with 6.5 due to a pesky westerly wind
blowing everything out of the river this fall.

If it is sold for $7 at Lowes in the US, it would be sold for about $14 in 
Canada, so Binnacle (and Star Brite) are not overcharging that much.

I hate to burst the bubble of discovery, but the same stuff is available at Ace 
Hardware and Lowes. Besides using it on wiring connections, I find it very 
useful to dip the end of lines in it after I whip them. The lines seem to never 
get frayed, and I can color code them.

There's a product called "Dip It Whip It" sold in boat stores that is the same 
stuff at twice the price.

BTW, liquid electrical tape is $6.98 at Lowes. But then, it's not being sold 
for boats.

This  kind of reminds me of the old English tale of the axe stuck in the
ceiling and everyone crying  about what would happen if it fell out and
killed her future husband. Till a man suitor came along and pulled the axe
out of the ceiling.

Why not be proactive and just replace it? If you prepare everything
beforehand you can just do it when you are going in in the spring  or coming
out in the fall.  You already know it will last 8 years, and every year that
passes you will be worrying even more - when you take out the old one you
can check the condition and determine if you can wait till, say Stardate

Joel,

 

You're right. The cable itself would not be a major expense. 

 

The hauling the boat 10 feet in the air, perhaps as an emergency
short-haul, and doing the repairs while in a travel lift, dismantling what's
there, snaking a new wire through and everything else gets expensive. And if
it breaks on its own, I'm looking a major out-of-pocket keel repair. 

 

I'm not so sure about the resale value part. A shoal-draft keel
has its advantages, especially for cruising. And, a next owner would not
need to continually inspect and possibly repair the cable.

 

Upwind performance is the biggie. But, in less than 10, I find
the boat runs slower VMG than with the board up. And in Western LI Sound, we
don't get above 10 all that often. As I said - playing with the idea.

Mine has been jammed up for at least 4 years.  Always say I should find a
travel lift and RR&R the centre board.  Just doesn't seem to be worth the
aggregation.

Don't miss it, but I would never glass it over.  Way back when I was
looking for a boat there was a C&C 37 K/CB for sale around Annapolis that
the owner applied torpedoes to the keel and removed the CB.  My broker
really want me to look at it to satisfy his curiosity but I didn't.

Are you pleased with keel centerboard, never had one so I don't know much

Dwight,

Thanks. It's a Keel/Centerboard model. As for exterior
labeling, I figure if you're going to name a boat Starship Enterprise, you
might as well go all-out with the graphics. As several on the list will
confirm, the back of the boat says:

ENTERPRISE
- NCC-1701-B -
NEW YORK, NEW YORK
PLANET EARTH
ALPHA QUADRANT

As for the interior cushions -- say good bye. We FINALLY got rid
of the "Golden Girls" floral print design and now have a soft light brown
microfiber - Will take some pics once they are installed.

As for the race crew, we have our own crew dynamics and the
roles have evolved on their own. My First Officer is my foredeck guy and
crew boss, Dave.

However, usually running my mainsail is my friend Kurt who I
have known since third grade. Kurt is a computer programmer for Morgan
Stanley and, amazingly enough, can calculate Time on Time standings in his
head while on the course at any given time. And, while we do always call
him by his name Kurt, he is often referred to by others, going as far back
to age 8, as my "Spock".

PS - His/Her/Their name is "Q", not "Cue"

Bill,

Where the Enterprise is now, the travelift is never 10 feet above dry 
land, and, as Joel mentioned, it’s hard to find a place with a lift that far 
off the ground. In order the replace the cable, the board must be completely 
down. 

A short haul in my area would be several hundred dollars alone. 
materials an labor would probably be another hundred or so.

I bet I can get it glassed over for $100 right where she is.

I wouldn’t remove the board or add a bulb — never sure I’d get the weight just

Stus-List FW: Now Boat Names

2014-03-07 Thread Bill Coleman
Couldn't you drop the board in the well and bring it right to the edge? Last
boat of the day.  Or, if you don't like that, bring it off the pavement and
dig a hole?  That is how I got my rudder out!

Bill,

 

Where the Enterprise is now, the travelift is never 10 feet
above dry land, and, as Joel mentioned, it's hard to find a place with a
lift that far off the ground. In order the replace the cable, the board must
be completely down. 

 

A short haul in my area would be several hundred dollars alone.
materials an labor would probably be another hundred or so.

 

I bet I can get it glassed over for $100 right where she is. 

 

All the best,

 

Edd

Why not be proactive and just replace it? If you prepare everything
beforehand you can just do it when you are going in in the spring  or coming
out in the fall.  You already know it will last 8 years, and every year that
passes you will be worrying even more - when you take out the old one you

Joel,

 

You're right. The cable itself would not be a major expense. 

 

The hauling the boat 10 feet in the air, perhaps as an emergency
short-haul, and doing the repairs while in a travel lift, dismantling what's
there, snaking a new wire through and everything else gets expensive. And if
it breaks on its own, I'm looking a major out-of-pocket keel repair. 

 

I'm not so sure about the resale value part. A shoal-draft keel
has its advantages, especially for cruising. And, a next owner would not
need to continually inspect and possibly repair the cable.

 

Upwind performance is the biggie. But, in less than 10, I find
the boat runs slower VMG than with the board up. And in Western LI Sound, we
don't get above 10 all that often. As I said - playing with the idea. 

 

All the best,

 

Edd

Re: Stus-List Now Boat Names

2014-03-07 Thread cenelson

My centerboard is similar if not identical to those on the 37s--I can't prove 
it but I think its design was copied from the 37s--I don't think an entire new 
trunk/board was designed for the
34/36 of which mine is hull #77.

That said, be sure that the entire cable is inspected during your haul out. 
Without removing the pennant stop on the cabin top, this is impossible since 
this stop prevents the board from
going further down than maximum and at this maximum, it is virtually impossible 
to inspect the cable except by feeling the very end of it near the board via 
the aft end of the trunk. If the cable
is worn somewhere else (besides on what can be seen on the cabin top), it will 
never be found unless the floor boards are removed and the sheaves inspected 
where the cable passes over them while moving the board between the maximum up 
and down positions. This is now my drill during my annual haul-outs.

Further, if you do have a catastrophic failure and the board falls and is 
stopped by the forward part of the trunk, stop sailing immediately and slowly 
motor back to port.

The athwartship pressure on the board when sailing is taken up by the sides of 
the trunk--when it is fully dropped (cable loss), it has NO support from the 
trunk and is hanging
only by the pin. If you continue sailing with the board extended this way, you 
will rip it out of the boat if it is still there. If the board is gone, 
motor/sail home and glass the slot over or rebuild/install a new board!

The latter happened once to me and I built another board. The former happened 
once but while the new board was down so only the pennant needed replaced.

Such are, as you know, the vagaries of owning a centerboard boat. OTOH, with a 
4.5 ft. draft with the board up. I can get into virtually any marina on the NC 
coast/sounds and
still go to weather with the fin keels. Downwind, as they say "...not so 
much..." with my relatively massive centerboard trunk with the board tucked up 
inside it.

I bet having the cable done when she's hauled is cheaper than the glass job.


I'd have trouble finding a lift that could accommodate 10 foot draft!  I had to

If you are sailing almost all the time with the board up, why not just put a 
bolt through it and leave it where it is? When, (and if) you decide to sell, 
the next buyer can make his/her mind up about using it. You could even fashion 
a cover for the slot and improve your performance by getting rid of the 
turbulence. I would hesitate to stick the board up in a permanent fashion.

Don't miss it, but I would never glass it over.  Way back when I was 
looking for a boat there was a C&C 37 K/CB for sale around Annapolis that the

  Thanks. It’s a Keel/Centerboard model. As for exterior

confirm, the back of the boat says:

  As for the interior cushions — say good bye. We FINALLY got

  As for the race crew, we have our own crew dynamics and the

boss, Dave. 

  However, usually running my mainsail is my friend Kurt who I

Bill,

My yard doesn’t have a well and there’s no place to bring the boat on 
land in my yard where I can dig a hole. I’d have to bring the boat to 
Consolidated (a commercial yard) and have them do it — short haul, commercial 
labor — $$

Another thought is that the boat might actually have better speed with 
it glassed over. I always wonder about the water resistance with the flow going 
into and out of the slot.

Re: Stus-List Fwd: Now Boat Names

2014-03-07 Thread Gary Nylander
Right now, you have a slot which is a bit wider than the board which creates 
some drag. Most of the keels I've seen are rather flat on the bottom, so you 
could build a cover out of aluminum or copper and form it to fit over the hole. 
Then fasten it with flat head screws. If you made it strong (thick) enough, you 
wouldn't have to use a bolt.. I would put some butyl between the cover and the 
keel, to keep the stale water out.

For the bolt if you decide to go that way, (I'm assuming the keel is somewhat 
'fat' like the ones I've seen around here) you could use a carriage bolt or a 
flat head bolt where the head wouldn't be protruding very much and countersink 
the nut on the other side. A little putty would cover the nut and it should be 
better than the slot you have now. 

Removing the cover would be easier for the next owner than cutting away the 
glass.

Our workboat guys around here put copper covers over everything - about 1/16 of 
an inch thick - it won't produce much drag. They use copper nails as well, but 
I would use screws.

Just an idea.

Rob MacLachlan of South Shore yachts do the replacement at the beginning of
the 2013 season  the previous cable was a replacement also - and not
done well so was a bear to remove  the new one a better arrangement and
was quick to install - $500 parts & labour for the re & re - $200 to hang in
the slings for 2-3 hours during launch season - the yard was great and
picked me up at the end of the day so I didn't interfere with the launch -
just kept the staff from going home early .. it was a cold wet day ..

Dwight,

 

Initially, I was very enthusiastic about owning a
keel/centerboard model - better pointing upwind, less drag downwind. The
process of lowering and raising the board is quiet and it's great to have
some control over how much you can have down there depending on wind
strength - Then, I joined this list and heard some horror stories about the
cable breaking and the board doing (uninsured) damage to the keel. 

 

So each year, I have my bottom cleaners lower the board and
check the cable. So far, each year (8 years running), they have said it was
fine, but I dread the day where I have to replace the cable ($$$). 

 

Now that I'm transitioning to a more cruising-oriented sailing
lifestyle, I have been playing with the idea of just glassing it over,
forcing it to always remain in the up position and never having to inspect
or maintain the cable again. 

 

All the best,

 

Edd

I agree the new cushions will be a nice upgrade to an already beautiful
yacht and you chose really good material. And thanks on the spelling of Q's
name; most powerful guy on any Star Trek episode I think.

 

Would Dave mind if you called him Spock just while on the boat, that would
sort of fit with your theme.

 

Are you pleased with keel centerboard, never had one so I don't know much
about how they sail, only what I read here sometimes.  Is the drop part
noisy with movement when down and under sail?

Dwight,

 

Thanks. It's a Keel/Centerboard model. As for exterior labeling,
I figure if you're going to name a boat Starship Enterprise, you might as
well go all-out with the graphics. As several on the list will confirm, the
back of the boat says:

 

ENTERPRISE

- NCC-1701-B - 

NEW YORK, NEW YORK

PLANET EARTH

ALPHA QUADRANT

 

As for the interior cushions - say good bye. We FINALLY got rid
of the "Golden Girls" floral print design and now have a soft light brown
microfiber - Will take some pics once they are installed. 

 

As for the race crew, we have our own crew dynamics and the
roles have evolved on their own. My First Officer is my foredeck guy and
crew boss, Dave. 

 

However, usually running my mainsail is my friend Kurt who I
have known since third grade. Kurt is a computer programmer for Morgan
Stanley and, amazingly enough, can calculate Time on Time standings in his
head while on the course at any given time. And, while we do always call him
by his name Kurt, he is often referred to by others, going as far back to
age 8, as my "Spock".

 

PS - His/Her/Their name is "Q", not "Cue" 

 

 

All the best,

 

Edd

Re: Stus-List Now Boat Names

Funny - I just started to keep a list of good boat names that I think 
up, since this thread comes up every now and then and I can't ever 
remember what was so funny.


The absolute worst boat name I saw was "Bob's Big Bitch Magnet" with a 
sticker of a naked lady.  Obviously, it was a poorly maintained power 
boat that never left the dock.  And if he did leave the dock, it's a 
safe bet he never used the radio.

Bill,

 

Where the Enterprise is now, the travelift is never 10 feet
above dry land, and, as Joel mentioned, it's hard to find a place with a
lift that far off the ground. In order the replace the cable, the board must
be completely down. 

 

A short haul in my area would be several hundred dollars alone.
materials an labor would probably be another hundred or so.

 

I bet I can get it glassed over for $100 right where she is. 

 

All the best,

 

Edd

Why not be proactive and just replace it? If you prepare everything
beforehand you can just do it when you are going in in the spring  or coming
out in the fall.  You already know it will last 8 years, and every year that

Joel,

 

You're right. The cable itself would not be a major expense. 

 

The hauling the boat 10 feet in the air, perhaps as an emergency
short-haul, and doing the repairs while in a travel lift, dismantling what's
there, snaking a new wire through and everything else gets expensive. And if
it breaks on its own, I'm looking a major out-of-pocket keel repair. 

 

I'm not so sure about the resale value part. A shoal-draft keel
has its advantages, especially for cruising. And, a next owner would not
need to continually inspect and possibly repair the cable.

 

Upwind performance is the biggie. But, in less than 10, I find
the boat runs slower VMG than with the board up. And in Western LI Sound, we
don't get above 10 all that often. As I said - playing with the idea. 

 

All the best,

two lashes with a stingray tail. 

Actually, I was bottom fishing in one spot and kept catching these 
two/three foot wide sting rays.  The little four incher ones can mess 
you up if you step on them, but the big ones can really kill you.  I was 
in the dink, so it wasn't just about protecting myself, I also needed to 
protect the dink.  Leather gloves are really handy, and cheap.  Yeah, I 
know, cut the line, but I'm not rich and I was fishing with a lure that 
cost more than a tuna.


After the third sting ray, I moved to another spot, and caught a nice 
snapper and called it a dinner.

Wiley Price, who used to own the cradle manufacturer JOWI, once had a racing
boat called "Blow Job". I'm told the name on the dinghy was "Hand Job".

 

Story goes that one year, while towing the boat back from Key West Race

his boat name.

Re: Stus-List Exhaust Riser Replacement

2014-03-07 Thread Michael Brown
Dirty carb?

Water backing up through the exhaust, through the motor, then through the
intake system into the carb is pretty unlikely. I mention this since if the 
actual
source of the contamination is something else you could have the problem
again.

Do you have a mechanical fuel pump? If so there is a metal cup on the stern
side of it, held in by a bail. Place a coffee filter in a clean tin can, remove 
the
cup and dump the gas out into the can. Check the filter and the bottom of
the cup for debris. A few A4s I have checked were running "fine", but at
least half of the cup was full of sediment.

The mechanical fuel pump has a level, looks like a coat hanger bent around
the pump, that is a primer to get gas back into the carb after the lines have
been drained without cranking the engine.

My opinion, not shared by many, is that the inline fuel filters of the sort
sold for cars do not filter well. The opinion is based on wiping the cup out
with a clean cloth, then doing the same a year later.  The A4 is a very small
engine, 17 - 30 HP compared to 150 and up for a car. The tiny jet, infrequent
use and low intake vacuum on the A4 make it sensitive to the stuff that
would pass through a car.

The bulkhead mounted filter / water separators that have a oil filter sized
canister are good to remove particulate down to 10 microns. I like the type
that have a heavy shell, and the filter is inside. Some come with a drain at
the bottom, makes it easy to check for water. Get the drain plug that has
a slot / hole cut in it so the plug does not have to be removed to drain
the filter.

A lot of work for a couple of cans a gas a year ...

Re: Stus-List Exhaust Riser Replacement

2014-03-07 Thread bobmor99 .
Michael,
Thank you very much for the reply. I hope the rest of the list will indulge
in an A4 discussion.
Yes, there's a mechanical fuel pump.
The stainless sedimenter bowl was "squeaky clean", no crud. The transparent
(automotive) gas filter just in front of the sedimenter bowl was/is also
"squeaky clean". There is also a canister filter adjacent to the gas tank.
I have not had that apart.
I've been "pretty good" about using ethanol-free gas and the gas tank has
been full throughout the winter.
The failure to (re)start coincides with the exhaust riser failure which was
noticed at the dock while running the engine after an oil change.
Any elaboration of alternate theories is appreciated in advance.

Re: Stus-List Exhaust Riser Replacement - AT4 fuel issue???

2014-03-07 Thread Dennis C.
When I bought Touche' (with A4) there FIRST thing I did was to drop the
sediment bowl.  YUCK!!  Looked like coffee with globs of butter colored
clouds in it.  I had suspected before purchase that the engine had not run
in several years.  This confirmed my suspicion.

I pulled the fuel tank and replaced it (a thorough cleaning would also
work), placed a coffee can at one end of the fuel line and squirted a half
can of Gunk carb cleaner through it until the discharge looked clear,
rebuilt the carb, cleaned the sediment bowl and filled the tank with fresh
gas.  Took a while but it finally fired up and ran fine for years after.

When I was in the Navy in Japan.  I had a Kawasaki 500 MkIII (fastest
production motorcycle at the time.  Yeah, I was stoopid).  I had it shipped
back to the States after my service.  It was in transit for several
months.  Once I got it back, I made several unsuccessful attempts to start
it.  I drained all the fuel, replaced it with new gas and it fired right up.

Never, never underestimate the problems bad fuel can cause.

Re: Stus-List Now Boat Names

2014-03-07 Thread Rick Brass
When I bought her, my 38 was named Scarlet Fever. (the original name since
she was launched in 1976 in Lake St. Clair, as it turns out.) So obviously a
name change was in order.

 

My former girlfriend and I looked at a lot of potential names. I've always
thought "Emerald Flash" or "Green Flash" was a good name, since one of the
things on my bucket list is to actually see one from the deck of my own
boat. But if you call her "Green Flash" and race her, you'd better be darn
fast.

 

Another potential name was "Primal". The psychological term for an
experience which can only be understood from experience and not from
description as a "primal experience" - and sailing is certainly one of
these. If you can tell a non-sailor how you can get an adrenalin rush on a
sailboat traveling at something between walking and jogging speed, you're a
better man than I.

 

Anyway, we came up with a total of 27 potential names from astrology,
mythology, astronomy, quotations, etc. How to decide among them?

 

We had a lottery! We each picked our favorite 10 out of the 27. I think that
left 16 or 17 (maybe I should have known the relationship was never going to
last at that point?). Then a second cut to get down to 9. Those went into a
hat.. And out came Imzadi. (Which was my personal favorite. And my former
girlfriend hated it.

 

As Edd will know, "Imzadi" is Betazoid for "beloved", and the context is
that it is a term reserved for your first or greatest love. Will Ryker and
Dianna Troi of Next Generation have an historic relationship, and it is an
endearment they use on occasion in the series. And it is certainly a fitting
name for my boat, and for sailing.

 

I admit it. I'm an incurable romantic. My 25 is named "la Belle Aurore",
which most movie buffs will know is the bar where Rick and Ilsa say goodbye
in Paris, in the movie Casablanca.

Just as a note, Star Trek was one of the first shows to feature an
"ensemble" cast.  Much has been made of how each of the four central
characters, Kirk, Spock, Doc and Scotty, were positioned in the Myers Briggs
personality quadrant.  Googling "Myers Briggs Star Trek" yields some very
interesting articles on the perceived placement of each of character.
Further, you will discover more on the personality placement of characters
in Star Trek, The Next Generation and Star Wars.  Very interesting reads.

To keep this sailing related, as a boat skipper, you manage your crew.
During a race, crew dynamics can influence the performance of the boat.
Having insight into your crews personality types may help you, as a boat
manager, fuse your crew into a cohesive working unit.

Here's a fun way to find out who your crew really is.  Have each of them go
to the link below and take the test.  Next time you're in a relaxed crew
environment, ask them to disclose the results of the test.  Enjoy.

I guess the worst result would be to have a crud'd up carb and perfectly
clean filters.

A few thoughts, not really a diagnoses of what is happening.

Modern gas is a cocktail of gasoline, ethanol, detergents, maybe fuel injector
cleaners, co-solvents and whatever seasonal additives our government feels
should be added. Even diesel fuel is getting to be an engineered blend.
With intermittent use the various properties of the fuel can keep particulates
in suspension, at least while it is still wet. On a warm day against a warm
engine the fuel in the carb will evaporate slowly, leaving behind heavier
additives and crud. Repeat a few times a week and after a while you end
up with crud / film / varnish in the carb. No perfect solution, a sub 10 micron
filter will help. Not having all the extra additives in the gas would be good,
not likely to happen. Avoiding ethanol is important, but at least in Canada
that means using high test / premium / expensive which has all the other
additives.

The failure of the exhaust riser and not starting may be related. No guess
as to how, particularly if clearing crud out of the carb solved it.  


Some simple maintenance steps.

Get to a clean state, may require having the carb rebuilt. Check the filters
and sediment bowl for contaminates. Not sure which carb you have. On mine
there is a stern facing drain plug at the bottom, uses a 1/2" wrench. You
can drain the fuel bowl into a can, and using the priming bail on the pump
you can flush it. Pass the fuel through a coffee filter, then let it dry. You 
may
end up with a light outline of a ring, which is OK. Anything that resembles a
psychiatrists rorschach test is likely a problem.

I drain everything in the fall, tank - lines - filter - carb. Takes about 15 
minutes,
plus the time for the tank to drain. In the spring I flush a bit of the gas 
through
the system and the carb using the primer on the pump, again a few minutes.
Ends up as part of the oil change, coolant drain and fogging the engine routine.
It gets cold enough here that the stability of the gasoline / ethanol / alcohol
summer blend may not sit well over the winter. Even the pro ethanol group
cautions about the various problems separated or water infiltrated fuel posses. 

Quoted:

There are a few potential nuances that may occur with the initial introduction 
of methanol blends into the gasoline distribution
system. One is that the solvency of the gasoline may now be slightly different 
from before. This change in solvency may cause
some of the long–term gum and dirt build-up in the storage system to readily 
dissolve, and then be released abruptly from the
walls of the gasoline distribution system. As a result, a slight colouration 
may be found in the initial gasoline batch containing
methanol, and a temporary increase in fuel filter replacements may be required 
at the gasoline dispenser pumps to capture
any dislodged dirt. In addition, the pump dispenser filters many need to be 
switched to a type with smaller micron opening
that is designed for alcohol gasoline blends. The performance of vehicles 
during this initial phase should be unaffected as long
as good house–keeping practices are maintained at the retail gasoline outlets.

Shouldn't be this complicated, just nowhere to go and purchase simple gas 
anymore.

Michael, 
Thank you very much for the reply. I hope the rest of the list will indulge 
in an A4 discussion. 
Yes, there's a mechanical fuel pump. 
The stainless sedimenter bowl was "squeaky clean", no crud. The transparent 
(automotive) gas filter just in front of the sedimenter bowl was/is also 
"squeaky clean". There is also a canister filter adjacent to the gas tank. 
I have not had that apart. 
I've been "pretty good" about using ethanol-free gas and the gas tank has 
been full throughout the winter. 
The failure to (re)start coincides with the exhaust riser failure which was 
noticed at the dock while running the engine after an oil change. 
Any elaboration of alternate theories is appreciated in advance.

Re: Stus-List Boat names Why bother ?

2014-03-07 Thread Andy Blanchard
When I purchase my my C&C the name  at the time was ``  Medicine Man ` and shit 
, I really didn't like the name so I decided to call her after my mothers first 
name "Bella" , French Canadian. She is is the most wonderful women  and  thanks 
to her I was able to enjoy  the sport  of sailing, 
They told me at my Marina that if I was to change  the name on my Boat there 
was a ceremony, ! " / $$$  and  I needed to find a Virgin Women ( impossible in 
my area)  and she was to pee on the bow of the boat while I was  backing up 
lol  then and only then I could change the name of the Boat.
I don`t know any French Canadians that are Virgins , and yes I have found the 
recipe for Painkillers

We just got back from the BVI's and it's true what they say, it's the sailing 
capital of the World. Very beautiful, people are friendly and I would recommend 
for any sailors that you should put this on your bucket list.

In all the anchorages where one is likely to spend the night, unless you are 
very adept at picking your way through the mooring field to find that patch of
 bottom with good holding and then are confident in setting your anchor so as 
not to swing into other boats and not have to worry about dragging, the cost of 
the mooring ball does provide some peace of mind that helps with a good night's 
sleep.
