I can second the recommendation that you check a farm implement shop.  Quick, 
easy cheap.

I may live so far out "...in the sticks..." in Eastern NC that "...we have to 
import the sticks 😄..." but we have many hydraulic shops, mostly because we 
have a lot of farm and logging equipment in use.

I had my Navtec unit (after about 15 yrs in use) seals replaced, cylinders 
smoothed/rebored?, etc. for about $300 at one of these a few years ago.

Compared to the size and complexity of most equipment these shops deal with, my 
Navtec unit was a piece of cake, especially to the "...good old boys..." who 
are used to more complexity and quicker turn-arounds. (If you have contracted 
with an equipment lessor to get your crop planted, fertilized, harvested, etc. 
during a certain time interval, you or they cannot afford to wait for a 2-3 
week repair time!)

With appreciation to those "actual rocket scientists" on the list, this 
repair/rebuild does not even approach rocket science. It's a hydraulic cylinder 
for Heavens sake! The fact that it is used on a sailboat may inflate the repair 
cost (if it is repaired by a rigging shop) but at the end of the day it is a 
simple hydraulic cylinder.

Just where in the sticks are you?  Heck, I'm in Hertford and I thought we were

You can always use an extra line to narrow the sheeting angle (the name escapes 
me at the moment).

  Re: Stus-List C&C24
 
 The only suggestion I would have is to
 consider
 genoa tracks. The reason is our C&C's are rather
 'fat' boats and sheeting
 the genoa to the toe rail gives us a wider than optimum
 sheeting angle for the
 genoa. When I got my 30-1, I (had been to a couple of
 seminars and was loaded??
 with knowledge) I calculated the sheeting angle for the
 genoa was about
 12-13 degrees and my impressive knowledge suggested it
 should be around 10-11.
 Thus, tracks. This gives you the opportunity to unhook the
 genoa and run it back
 to the rail when you want the best angle for reaching, thus
 increasing the tasks
 you can get your faithful crew to do. If you are cruising and are not 
dedicated to
 the
 highest possible pointing angle, then disregard the above.
 If not, then drill a
 bunch of leaky holes in your deck and have the drips come
 down
 inside... Gary

   My shins agree with the last comment. I have a
 C&C24, but don't know
   what might be different from the original.
   Halyards to winches on the cabin top at the cockpit,
 no genoa track (but
   simple to adjust for whatever foresail I choose with
 blocks clipped in to 2"
   or so increments in the aluminum toe-rail.
   One improvement (I don't think they were
 original, but who knows?) are
   the Barient self-tailing winches for the main sheets (nice
 improvement!).
   Teak grab rail on the cabin, split back stay with
 adjuster, home-made
   boom vang (not well thought out by previous owner). From
 the brochures
 on
   Stu's site http://www.cncphotoalbum.com/
 it looks
   like, as Chris said, the early models had halyards to mast
 base, not so on
   later models where they go to winches on the cabin top, at
 the cockpit.

   One
   of the big improvements was the change from the main
 sheeting to the cabin top
   (without the traveller) to a traveller in the cockpit.
 That change improved
   dramatically trimming of the main, even if some complained
 that the traveller
   was getting in the way of getting into the companion
 way. 

   There
   was a good picture on the boat for sail in BC (?) just a

I had a C&C 24 and added genoa tracks inboard.  I put and aluminum bar 
underneath and epoxied all holes.  Worked well.  If I were to do it now I would 
use setup on my 27V and put short tracks on the coaming.  You can also add a 
traveler across the seats.

I had a C&C 24 and added genoa tracks inboard.  I put and aluminum bar 
underneath and epoxied all holes.  Worked well.  If I were to do it now I 
would use setup on my 27V and put short tracks on the coaming.  You can also 
add a traveler across the seats.

It is a barber hauler, but you have to have something to attach it to that 
is closer to the cabin, thus a hole or ring, or something.

 Re: Stus-List C&C24

The only suggestion I would have is to
consider
genoa tracks. The reason is our C&C's are rather
'fat' boats and sheeting
the genoa to the toe rail gives us a wider than optimum
sheeting angle for the
genoa. When I got my 30-1, I (had been to a couple of
seminars and was loaded??
with knowledge) I calculated the sheeting angle for the
genoa was about
12-13 degrees and my impressive knowledge suggested it
should be around 10-11.
Thus, tracks. This gives you the opportunity to unhook the
genoa and run it back
to the rail when you want the best angle for reaching, thus
increasing the tasks
you can get your faithful crew to do. If you are cruising and are not 
dedicated to

the
highest possible pointing angle, then disregard the above.
If not, then drill a
bunch of leaky holes in your deck and have the drips come
down
inside... Gary

  My shins agree with the last comment. I have a
C&C24, but don't know
  what might be different from the original.
  Halyards to winches on the cabin top at the cockpit,
no genoa track (but
  simple to adjust for whatever foresail I choose with
blocks clipped in to 2"
  or so increments in the aluminum toe-rail.
  One improvement (I don't think they were
original, but who knows?) are
  the Barient self-tailing winches for the main sheets (nice
improvement!).
  Teak grab rail on the cabin, split back stay with
adjuster, home-made
  boom vang (not well thought out by previous owner). From
the brochures
on
  Stu's site http://www.cncphotoalbum.com/
it looks
  like, as Chris said, the early models had halyards to mast
base, not so on
  later models where they go to winches on the cabin top, at
the cockpit.

  One
  of the big improvements was the change from the main
sheeting to the cabin top
  (without the traveller) to a traveller in the cockpit.
That change improved
  dramatically trimming of the main, even if some complained
that the traveller
  was getting in the way of getting into the companion
way.

  There
  was a good picture on the boat for sail in BC (?) just a
week or so

Re: Stus-List Navtec pump service

2015-02-05 Thread Chuck S via CnC-List
My two cents; The backstay ram is meant to add tension, not remove all slop 
from a poorly adjusted rig. 
The rig should be adjusted so when the ram is relaxed and full length, it is 
not so slack that the mast is jeopardized. Also, if you start with some tension 
on, without hydraulic pressure, you can get by with less pressure on the seal, 
when sailing. Again, while at the dock, common sense suggests you remove 
tension on the ram to make this initial adjustment, like crank down on the 
mainsheet, to pull the mast back, check your rake, prebend, etc, headstay 
tension, adjust the backstay rod adjustment to this starting point. Then if the 
ram has a problem, the rig stays in the boat. Losing the function of the ram 
will still allow you to sail. You just may have fuller sails than otherwise. 

Before I had my ram repaired, my system leaked fluid at the remote pump station 
and at the O-ring at the top end of the ram cylinder. It still functioned but 
wouldn't hold pressure for long. You could pump it up to 2500# but it would 
lose all pressure and within less than 20 minutes, would be at zero. My local 
Hydraulics guy pressure tested his work for me and showed me how well it held 
pressure. We pumped up the pressure to 2 x normal and watched it for 30 
minutes. He said I could come back the next day, but convinced me it was good. 
And it's been very reliable holding pressure for weeks when I'm away from the 
boat. That repair was done seven years ago. 

BTW, the Challenger tragedy, seal failure happened because they launched when 
it was too cold, and ice formed under the seal causing the failure. The warning 
from the builder was ignored.
