Stevan,
I'm not sure you need a customs broker.  I've brought my last 2 boats back from 
the US without a broker and it's not a difficult process.  (I also have brought 
a couple of cars back from the US, too)

One was on her own bottom and one on a trailer.   Clearing by water is a piece 
of cake.   Just phone in as normal and tell them you're at the dock.  They'll 
take a credit card over the phone for your HST.  Then you report to customs 
office the next day and fill in the paperwork.

On a trailer, it's also straightforward - As long as there's a VIN on the 
trailer.  If there's no VIN on the trailer, they might not let you bring it 
into the country - which would suck. (and which almost happened to me with my 
J/24)
I haven't used a third party trucker to bring a boat in, but I suspect that's 
not such a big deal either.

Anyway, it's not a big deal.  

Happy shopping!
Cheers,
Colin

Re: Stus-List which iPad

2014-04-01 Thread Eric Frank
Ron,
   If you like the navigation app iNavX, then that runs well even on the first 
generation iPads, as well as the later ones.  To supply a GPS signal, there are 
various units that plug into the "charging" port of the iPad.  Here are the 
ones listed on the iNavX website: 
Bad Elf GPS
Dual XGPS150 Universal Bluetooth GPS / Dual XGPS170 Universal Bluetooth GPS

Magellan ToughCase

Or there are some free-standing GPS units that broadcast a wifi signal, which 
also works well.  Several laptop-based navigation systems (I use MacENC on the 
Mac, but there are also good ones for PCs) also broadcast wifi nav information, 
as well as some chartplotters (like the E7 from Raymarine).

iNavX lets you download free raster charters from NOAA, so once you buy the app 
and the GPS module, there are no further costs.  You definitely do not need 
phone capability to use the iPad.  But even the new ones are not waterproof.

Stus-List Enlarging existing holes

2014-04-01 Thread Dennis C.
Over the years, we've discussed enlarging existing holes in hulls or
decks.  With a large existing hole, the pilot bit in a hole saw has nothing
to center itself with. There are two decent ways to do that.

First, you can use two hole saws on one arbor (mandrel) if the arbor has
enough threads to allow that.  If the smaller saw isn't quite large enough,
you can wrap some tape around it to make it fit the existing hole.

Second, you can make a wood insert to plug the existing hole.  There are
several ways to do that.  If you have a tapered plug, drive it into the
hole and cut it off.  Or, cut a wooden disc and insert it into the hole or
spear it on the pilot bit.  If necessary, you can shape the disc with a
spindle or belt sander.

Re: Stus-List Which ipad?

2014-04-01 Thread Rick Brass
I have a iPad 2 with both wifi and cellular capability. For about a decade, any 
device with cellular capability has been required to have a busily in GPS, 
because of the E911 system.

My iPad is not connected to cellular, and the GPS works just fine.

I was under the impression that older iPads all were configured for cellular, 
but that may not be the case. If not cellular, there are Gps attachments you 
can buy.

There are a number of software programs you can use. I am a big fan of Active 
Captain, because of how much more information it provides than can be found on 
charts. So I only looked at nav apps that had the Active Captain information 
included in the database. You can find information, reviews, and links on the 
Active Captain website.

I,m running the Active Captain Companion app, and Garmin Bluechart Mobile for 
the nav app. My plotter won't link to the iPad by Bluetooth, but your's might. 
I also have Garmin Homeport on my laptop so I can do route planning, etc on the 
laptop and transfer to the plotter using an SD card. Maybe some day I'll get an 
SD card reader for the iPad so I can do the planning on that device.

There is a very interesting thread started by Evans Starzinger over on Gear
Anarchy. The conclusion after many pages is that a tether should be very
stretchy, like 7mm dynamic climbing rope. If you hit even half the breaking
strength of most gear with zero stretch your body would be mush.
 

There is also much information about soft shackles and splicing dyneema in
general. I would recommend it as a great read for anyone interested in
safety. It does mean you have to sign up to be able to see all the pretty

Poli-Glow you either love it or hate it.  We used it for a number of years
then switched back to good old wax.  Poli-Glow looks good the the first few
years.  Probably requires stripping very 4 or 5 years.  You must follow the
directions exactly.  Clean with Poli-prep. then numerous thin coats of
Poli-glow.  After 3 or 4 coats it starts to look really good.

Re: Stus-List Poli-Glow

2014-04-01 Thread Bill Bina
The first year, it is a bit of a job. You will need to remove all old 
wax and other contaminants embedded in the gelcoat. The gelcoat must be 
completely free of old wax, and especially any traces of old compound 
that have been rubbed into the surface. Poli-Glow will not adhere to old 
residues from wax and compound. This process will realistically be about 
as much labor and time as you used to spend compounding.


The big secret to using poli-glow successfully is to strictly follow the 
very simple directions,and DO NOT IMPROVISE! Nothing you know or have 
learned about compounding and waxing applies to using Poli-Glow. The 
directions are pretty simple. Do not stray from them. Also be aware that 
people who compound and wax boats to make money HATE poli-glow and will 
ad mouth it in any way they can think of. Every time someone switches to 
poli-glow, those guys lose another customer, because poli-glow is too 
easy, and you are never going to be willing to pay someone to do it for 
you, unless you also have your car driven by a chauffeur. :-)


Once my boat was converted from wax to poliglow, spring prep of the 
topsides consists of washing dust off the hull with a hose and a piece 
of towel, and then wiping on 2 or 3 coats of fresh poliglow over what is 
left from last year. Application is very fast, and there is no rubbing 
or other strenuous activity involved. My annual time spent on freshening 
up the poli-glow is a VERY leisurely 2-3 hours. I'm old, arthritic, and 
have cancer. I put the applicator on a threaded broomstick that is just 
long enough to reach the highest point at the bow, so I don't even have 
to climb any ladders.


My boat always looks like it has just been sprayed with clear lacquer, 
or is wet. It still looks pretty shiny when I haul it in the fall. Over 
the winter it does get scuffed a bit by the flapping tarp, but a couple 
of new coats right over what is there blend it all invisibly back in.

Re: Stus-List Fwd: Enlarging existing holes

2014-04-01 Thread Dennis C.
True, Bill.  You did send some.  The carbide bits work well.  I've used
them but they require a steady hand which I don't have.

I've also used rasps.

However, if the deck or hull is thick, a hole saw is quicker.

Agree with Bill, it's easy and it looks good. Last year I stripped the hull
down to bare gelcoat again and built up 8-10 layers of Poli Glow. It was
still easier than wax/buff. The average year is a walk in the park.

Re: Stus-List Poli-Glow

2014-04-01 Thread Gary Nylander
I have been using Poli-glow for about 6 years. Get the hull very clean and get 
the oxidation off before you start (use their cleaner and don't skimp with the 
effort). Then apply as needed - it takes about six coats before it starts 
looking good and a couple more makes it look really good. The following years, 
all it takes is a couple of coats to refresh it.
The application is a breeze, you can put it on just about as fast as you can 
wipe the boat down - be a bit careful so you don't get runs.

I have it on a 1980 boat with original gelcoat and people still tell me how 
good it looks.

Stus-List GFCI Outlet

2014-04-01 Thread Edd Schillay
Listers,

Thanks to the wisdom of the group, I’m redoing the entire AC system of 
the Enterprise, including a switch from shore power to inverter. If you listen 
carefully, you’ll hear a stream of cursing coming from City Island this weekend 
as I try to squeeze myself into yoga-expert positions trying to snake wires.
  

As to a GFCI outlet, is it best to put it first in the line of outlets 
or last? Or does it not matter? 

Would it make sense to just install a GFCI inline from the shore power 
instead? 


All the best,

Edd

Edd,

Look at the receptacle.  It should have two pairs of hot/common connections
and one ground.  One pair will be labeled "Line" and one pair "Load".  The
"Load" connections are protected.

The correct wiring should be from your supply (breaker) to the pair marked
"Line".  Downstream receptacles should be wired from the "Load" pair.

Also, make sure you get the black (hot) and white (common or neutral) wires
on the correct connectors for all connections.

Edd,

It is now an ABYC requirement for all new boats, and surveyors will note
their presence/absence on resale.   An insurer might require them going
forward.

Necessary?  No.  My boat sails well without them!  Heck, I remember when
seat belts were not required in cars!

Stus-List Lawyers - argh!

2014-04-01 Thread sam . c . salter
Half way down the lake where I sail is a nice, little summer village - "Ghost 
Village ". The village is set in a fairly good sized bay with a small rock in 
the middle of the bay. It's just below water level. 

For years the village has put an orange buoy on the rock every spring to warn 
boaters - nice, neighbourly gesture! 

About 3 years ago a lawyer bought a property in the village. Next spring they 
are putting the buoy on the rock, so the lawyer starts telling them about 
liability and stuff. He persuades the village it's in their own interest not to 
put out the buoy.
There hasn't been one marking the rock for 3 years now.

Lee - It's been going on for a very long time.  Remember Noah?  Well, if 
you look closely at a dove, you'll see 'Not to be used for navigation' 
in fine print on the left side of the beak.


I'm pretty sure my sextant is not to be used for navigation.  All of my 
three GPS systems are 'for information only' and are not to be used for 
navigation.


I'm preempted lawsuits by crew, and have labelled everything on the boat 
'Not to be taken seriously, Not to be used for navigation.'  I put a 
label on my helm, because it's not to be used when navigating the boat. 
 Same with the Ritchie compass.


I won't sail with anyone until I've seen a retinal scan.  In the last 20 
years, the government has been doing secret DNA enhancement experiments 
on embryos.  The only way to know is if the inside of the eyeball says 
'Not for navigation.'  If you think I'm kidding, just go over to a 
friend's house and shine a 10,000,000 candlepower spotlight in his or 
her baby's eyes.  If the child is DNA enhanced, the warning will show up 
in fluorescent orange.  (Or you can do like they did in Salem, and throw 
them in the pool.  If they drown, they're not genetically enhanced.)

For the last 16 years with INDIGO I've been using soap and water and, after
it's dry, a coat or two of Turtle Wax. Lasts all summer and looks just fine.
The flag blue AwlGrip is now about 22 years old, has a couple of scratches
but still is serviceable.

Re: Stus-List GFCI Outlet

2014-04-01 Thread Ken Heaton
Hey Edd,

I wouldn't put one GFCI inline from the shore power.  It would need to be
large and expensive (2 pole, 30 amp) as you will end up
running everything through it including the heating element in the hot
water heater and your battery charger.  Also, many modern battery chargers
may cause it to nuisance trip frequently.

The GFCI in an outlet is cheap, effective and obvious if it trips as they
will usually have a small LED indicator on the face and only the circuit
that is tripped (and the outlets downstream) will go dead, not the whole
boat.  I think your boat has two breakers in the AC panel for the AC
outlets so you will only need two (or possibly three, depending on how the
wire is run) GFCI's to do the whole boat.

I think the level of safety these GFCI provide for very little money is
worth it.  I'm not sure how the ABYC requirement for all new boats is
written so I don't know if dong it this way will cover it.

Ken H.

As Dennis C. said:

"Look at the GFCI receptacle you are installing.  It should have two pairs
of hot/common connections and one ground.  One pair will be labeled "Line"
and one pair "Load".  The "Load" connections are protected.

The correct wiring should be from your supply (breaker) to the pair marked
"Line".  Downstream receptacles should be wired from the "Load" pair.

Also, make sure you get the black (hot) and white (common or neutral) wires
on the correct connectors for all connections.

Dennis C."

The first year, it is a bit of a job. You will need to remove all
old wax and other contaminants embedded in the gelcoat. The
gelcoat must be completely free of old wax, and especially any
traces of old compound that have been rubbed into the surface.
Poli-Glow will not adhere to old residues from wax and compound.
This process will realistically be about as much labor and time as
you used to spend compounding.

The big secret to using poli-glow successfully is to strictly
follow the very simple directions,and DO NOT IMPROVISE! Nothing
you know or have learned about compounding and waxing applies to
using Poli-Glow. The directions are pretty simple. Do not stray
from them. Also be aware that people who compound and wax boats to
make money HATE poli-glow and will ad mouth it in any way they can
think of. Every time someone switches to poli-glow, those guys
lose another customer, because poli-glow is too easy, and you are
never going to be willing to pay someone to do it for you, unless
you also have your car driven by a chauffeur. :-)

Once my boat was converted from wax to poliglow, spring prep of
the topsides consists of washing dust off the hull with a hose and
a piece of towel, and then wiping on 2 or 3 coats of fresh
poliglow over what is left from last year. Application is very
fast, and there is no rubbing or other strenuous activity
involved. My annual time spent on freshening up the poli-glow is a
VERY leisurely 2-3 hours. I'm old, arthritic, and have cancer. I
put the applicator on a threaded broomstick that is just long
enough to reach the highest point at the bow, so I don't even have
to climb any ladders.

My boat always looks like it has just been sprayed with clear
lacquer, or is wet. It still looks pretty shiny when I haul it in
the fall. Over the winter it does get scuffed a bit by the
flapping tarp, but a couple of new coats right over what is there
blend it all invisibly back in.

John,

 

I am a Poli-Glow user and have been for the past 6 or 7 years.  It makes my
boat shine.  The annual maintenance coats are easy to apply.  I've
compounded several boats and have had good results, but with 28 year old
gelcoat, Poli-Glow is just too easy to pass up.  We always get good
compliments on the shine.

Yup, we here in Washington know how to make $$ with our old C&C's.  I 
appreciate the effort "Billy Blood" put into a April Fool's joke.  Lee 
Youngblood sent the screen shot to me earlier but I was not able to find the 
post on the Three Sheets Northwest web site.



The C&C that is having it's reputation impinged is our 43, Calypso.  Calypso is 
under the winter work cover.  At his time we have all the deck hatches off for 
refirb (sent to Hammerhead) and all the deck hardware forward of the cockpit 
off to fix wet balsa and re-bed.  New deck paint is planned.



With much of the deck work being unplanned we have canceled our spring racing 
plans to concentrate of the deck repairs and new paint.  The entire interior is 
tarped off as much of the repair work is being done from the inside.



The only "smoke" likely to be seen from Calypso will be fiberglass dust flying 
off the grinder.

Re: Stus-List Boat For Sail now de-coring C&Cs in PNW

2014-04-01 Thread Martin DeYoung
Yes, Lee stops by Calypso from time to time,  He also sails with us when we 
will be racing somewhere interesting.  If any other C&C owners want to practice 
on someone else's deck let me know.  There is plenty to go around.  On the plus 
side, the Bruckmann build team in 1970 did a fair job of sealing (with resin) 
between row of end gain balsa so the water damage is mostly limited to small 
areas.



Lee is both a C&C owner and broker along with being a great photog.  Some of my 
recent favorite pictures of PNW sailboats including Calypso were shot by Lee.  
Maybe we can get him to post a montage on the cnc-photoalbum "photo gallery".

The C&C that is having it's reputation impinged is our 43, Calypso.  Calypso is 
under the winter work cover.  At his time we have all the deck hatches off for 
refirb (sent to Hammerhead) and all the deck hardware forward of the cockpit 
off to fix wet balsa and re-bed.  New deck paint is planned.



With much of the deck work being unplanned we have canceled our spring racing 
plans to concentrate of the deck repairs and new paint.  The entire interior is 
tarped off as much of the repair work is being done from the inside.



The only "smoke" likely to be seen from Calypso will be fiberglass dust flying

For those folks who have painted hulls who exclaim that they only have to
wax them...we're not talking about painted hulls.
Sure, I'd love to paint my hull and that would make life much easier because
then I would only have to rub it with a couple of dead squirrels every
spring to keep it looking wonderful.
However, I have original gelcoat, and I am using Poli Glow because I can't
afford to have the hull painted and I'm too lazy to do a wax job every year.
