The readout on my cockpit depth display on 1980 cnc 32 is barely readable in

Stus-List 34+ transom thru-hulls

2015-06-15 Thread Jean-Francois J Rivard via CnC-List
Hi David, 

Congrats on getting the 34+. I've owned mine for 3 years and still think I 
could not have possibly gotten a better boat for what we do.  The promise 
is that is gives you plentiful room and comfort at the marina / anchor and 
runs like a bat out of he$$ around the cans..   It does just that. 

All your questions are really straightforward. 

Exhaust hose:  I replaced mine last year, it's not that bad. Your idea of 
connecting the old one to the new one is excellent.  I just wrestled my 
old one out and taped a fiberglass wiring rod to the new one to pull some 
/ guide it.  The trick is to remove all the aft stateroom cushions then 
remove the fuel tank access panel and the wooden blocks that are screwed / 
wedged-in securing the fuel tank and find a way to jack-up tank to 
facilitate threading the new hose in under it ( I used 2 x 2's) . 

The challenge to thread the new hose is to line it up between the exposed 
strut bolts.  Stick to the original hose construction / diameter and 
you'll be fine.  It's a bit of a sweaty wrestling match but you and 1 
other guy should be able to knock it out in less than 1 hour. 

"Through-Hulls" 

None of what you mentioned is below the waterline at rest. They get 
dipped-in some when motoring or sailing in excess of 5 or so knots but 
that's nothing that the standard siphon loops can't handle. The 34+ is the 
last of the Canadian C&C's and after 35 + odd years of designing racer 
cruisers they had it down.. Rob Ball knew what he was doing. 

FYI, all through hulls on mine are Marelon.  I close them all everytime I 
leave the boat and they works well, 

Also, there are no cockpit or deck scuppers on the boat.  All cockpit 
/deck water simply flows out the stern / swim platform area in a modern 
open stern / sport boat style.  On my boat there's a drain for the propane 
locker, also well designed.  No need to seal / mess with it as propane is 
heavier than air and flows down the drain like water with its exit above 
the waterline at rest  There's no quadrant well.  On my boat The rudder 
shaft goes up to the quadrant that is mounted on top and flush with the 
cockpit sub-floor.  All that is easily accessible by simply removing the 
triangular fiberglass cover. 

Feel free to PM me for more details on how to tune the boat  / other 
questions of you want.

I said "appear" to be below the waterline because the boat's not in the 
water, isn't going in the water anytime soon, and I've never actually 
seen one of these in the water :)  All four thru-hulls are under the 
transom counter and below the boot stripe as well as below the waterline
 as defined by the existing bottom paint, so I have to assume they are 
submerged with the boat floating level.  Given their location in the 
bowels of the stern lazarettes, I know accessing them is a pain but I'm 
paranoid enough that I'd close them when I'm leaving the boat on her 
mooring and not returning for a span of days at a time.  On second 
though, I'd have to leave the two small ones open because those are 
scuppers, so no sense in valves on them at all.

Here's a pic of the two port side thru hulls, big one is the exhaust.  2 
more on the stbd side in the same configuration.

So I'm the proud new owner of a '90 34+, and the first project I bit off 
was replacement of the exhaust hose from the muffer back, including the 
thru-hull.

First off, this is not going to be fun because the hose runs under the 
fuel tank and span of the cockpit under the water heater where it is 
completely inaccessible.  I'm hoping I'll be able to pull the new hose 
through by clamping it to the old hose with a double-ended barb, but it 
seems like it's an awful tight fit under the tank.  If anyone else has 
done this job and has any suggestions, I'm all ears.

Second, the thru-hulls themselves.  There are 4 thru-hulls just under the 
transom - the exhaust, the two drains for the propane tank & steering 
quadrant well, and the bilge pump.  All 4 are plastic mushroom-head 
thru-hulls, and I want to replace at least the exhaust thru-hull with a 
new marelon one.  Question:  none of these thru-hulls have seacocks on 
them, which seems odd (and unwise) to me because they appear to be below 
the waterline.  What are your thoughts on putting a marelon ball valve on 
the new thru hull while I'm at it?  I'm tempted to replace all 4 of them 
with new thru-hull and valves.  Am I just being paranoid?

Thanks all.  I'm thrilled to have this boat and I'm sure I'll be pestering 
the heck out of this board!

Thanks for all the info François!   Yes I've come to accept that those stern 
thru-hulls are in fact above DWL, regardless of what the painted waterline 
says.  I'm leaning towards not going to seacocks now, probably will at least 
replace the old thru-hull though with a new marelon one while I'm in there.  
Thanks for the tip on jacking up the fuel tank!

You're correct - the 2 small lines are for draining the propane tank 
compartment under the quadrant panel.  I like that the cockpit doesn't need 
scuppers!

While I have you - what are your thoughts on the rod rigging on these boats?  
AFAIK, she has all her original standing rigging.   Yes she's been only in 
fresh water so far, but the age still gives me pause.   Have you rerigged yet?

Rod Rigging.  Mine is also original and the boat has been freshwater for 
all its life except for 4 years.  I discussed the rig with one of the few 
(And be most accounts: the best) factory certified Navtec guys in the 
southeast  (Rick Zern) and his advice was: Have your local guy take a look 
at it (While it's down if possible) or you can look at it yourself. Here's 
what you look for:  No kinks, make sure the tangs (mast attachment ball / 
socket joints) are not deformed, can rotate smoothly, and are free of 
rust.  Same with the eyes / toggles / turnbuckles: free of rust, smooth 
turning. If that passes muster, don't worry about it. 

As you know, rod riggings are extremely stout and don't really stretch 
much at all.  If it has been abused, mistreated, or over-stressed in a 
storm, the aluminum mast structure around the tang area will deform,  same 
for the threads on the turnbuckles: They will get distorted long before 
the rods or heads get damaged. 

Rick told me that being a certfied Navtec rigger he decided to remove his 
and have it lab tested.  Keep in mind his boat (J-boat) had been raced 
hard in salt water for  15-20+ years / his rod rigging was original. 
Results after the dye and destructive tests done: Nothing wrong.  In his 
words:  It was a waste of money and efforts. 

His words (Again) if you're about to embark on extended ocean crossing 
passages then by all means spend the money to get work done as insurance. 
For the rest of us lake and coastal cruisers:  Keep sailing and taking 
reasonable care of your rig.

Jim,  I do have a cover at my emergency tiller stock, but it doesn't keep

My 40 and the 41 I'm delivering south from St John, NB at the moment both have 
grease fitting on the tube. These are packed with grease and you give them a 
turn every now and then to lube the tube. Mine hadn't been done for quite some 
time so it needed to be repacked twice before I was confident there was enough 
grease in there. That eliminated the squeak for me.

Hi Andy,


Thanks for the reply.  Are you talking about the lower tube where the post goes 
into the glass tube and ultimately out the bottom, or the top of the tube where 
it meets the cockpit floor?.  I put quite a bit of grease in the lower fitting 
last year in a futile attempt to get rid of the squeak.  The only thing that 
seems to help is getting some lube on the emergency tiller bracket in my case.

Re: Stus-List Emergency Tiller Bracket Squeaking

2015-06-15 Thread George Cone via CnC-List
On my 40 I had the same problem, the steering became very “tight” or “hard”, I 
tied to add grease thru the fitting into the lower tube bad it was too far gone 
I guess, the yard at considerable expense had four guys pulling the rudder down 
after the quadrant and all had to be taken off, the rudder shaft polished and 
tube cleaned. Now it’s great but after 12 hours of Yard time. So get in there 
and locate your fitting and fill it before it becomes too late.

There is a ring there, yes.  Does it come out without disassembling the whole

Yes, the lower tube. Not only got rid of the squeak for me ,  but freed up the 
steering so driving became a real pleasure.

Hi Andy,




Thanks for the reply.  Are you talking about the lower tube where the post goes 
into the glass tube and ultimately out the bottom, or the top of the tube where 
it meets the cockpit floor?.  I put quite a bit of grease in the lower fitting 
last year in a futile attempt to get rid of the squeak.  The only thing that 
seems to help is getting some lube on the emergency tiller bracket in my case.

My 40 and the 41 I'm delivering south from St John, NB at the moment both have 
grease fitting on the tube. These are packed with grease and you give them a 
turn every now and then to lube the tube. Mine hadn't been done for quite some 
time so it needed to be repacked twice before I was confident there was enough 
grease in there. That eliminated the squeak for me.

Hello All,

 

I have a persistent squeak when I turn the wheel on my 30-2.  I have traced it 
to the emergency tiller bracket in the back of the cockpit.I can spray 
McLube in there and it will go away for a short time, but always comes back, 
especially after a rain.   Was there originally a cover on the bracket, BTW?

 

I don’t see a grease fitting like the lower part of the shaft has, or another 
way to get a better lubricant in there.  

 

Anyone had this issue before?  I am reluctant to remove the bracket for fear of 
causing larger issues with the steering system, so reassurance there would also 
be helpful.

 

Thanks,

I needed to add that I removed the top bearing you describe, and it helped a 
little but only for short times and was not successful, it actually comes our

Stus-List Atkins Hoyle hatch replacement

2015-06-15 Thread Joel Aronson via CnC-List
For those who have replaced their forward A&H hatch with a Lewmar 60
series, did you use the low, medium or ocean profile hatch?  With or
without flange on the Ocean?

Defender has the medium on closeout.

Re: Stus-List Atkins Hoyle hatch replacement

2015-06-15 Thread Paul Fountain via CnC-List
On Perception, a 33-II with an angled front hatch almost to the deck at the 
front I used the Ocean series, no flange (if you mean the vertical piece that 
lines the opening). I leave the hatch slightly open so wanted the extra height 
in heavy rains when away from the boat. Fit the opening better than the Bomars 
I replaced( Not A&H – would have rebuilt them if I had them as I know the 
owner) .

Stus-List depth finder follow-up

2015-06-15 Thread McElwreath, Daniel via CnC-List
Hi, the depth display is not readable on my 1980 cc 32. I asked listers and a 
number said, Listers said, what brand, what size, etc.  Anyway, it is a Brooks 
and Gatehouse  , squarish, measures 4 5/16 and 4 5/16.  I called the repair 
facility and he said (and he's right) it is the cockpit display of the unit 
down below at the nav table. Yes, that is working below..  But the service tech 
said it would take about 2 hours, and around $250 to repair.  Yikes.  !  Any 
suggestions?  Thanks in advance, Dan McElwreath  Tively II, City Island, NY

Was there any indication as to what about the prop that was causing the 
vibration?  Do you know what type of prop(s) the original and replacements 
were?   

 

I have had a fair amount of vibration after replacing the shaft, coupling and 
engine mounts, and the only culprit left is the prop itself.  

 

Thanks,

Stus-List I need information on a LF38 for sale in Charleston, SC

2015-06-15 Thread Rick Brass via CnC-List
A friend of mine is pretty impressed with a 1981 LF38 for sale at Ashley
Yachts in Charleston, SC and is close to making an offer on her. Jim is
interested in a strong and comfortable boat for retirement cruising on the
ICW starting this coming winter. He has sailed several times on my 38 mk2
and appreciates the build quality and performance, and the amenities in a
LF38 are attractive to his Admiral. He has already seen the boat, and has
asked me to go back with him to take a closer look at the mechanical systems
before finalizing an offer.

 

The name of the boat is "True Love". The listing on Yacht World is:
http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1981/C

&C-Landfall-2842472/Mt-Pleasant/SC/United-States#.VX9bgMtRH3g 

 

Does anyone know anything about this boat or its history. I'm a bit curious
about the new rudder. I also note that the tankage listed is different from
the original spec sheet on an LF38.

 

Do any of the LF owners on here see anything in the photographs on Yacht
World that require further investigation, or anything that strikes you as
especially desirable?

 

Finally, if this gets to the offer stage, Jim will need to have the boat
surveyed. Does anyone have a recommendation for a surveyor in the Charleston
area, especially one with C&C experience? A surveyor named David Hill was
recommended to my friend; does anyone have experience with him or knowledge
of his past performance?

 

Thanks for the help and advice.

Re: Stus-List 34+ transom thru-hulls

2015-06-15 Thread Rick Brass via CnC-List
Stainless steel would be a much better choice than Marlon if you do decide to 
replace the exhaust through hull. And a proper exhaust through hull will have a 
flap built into it that will keep a following sea from entering the exhaust 
hose (and a loop at least 18” above the waterline between the muffler and the 
through hull to ensure that water does not get into the muffler and engine).

 

When I replaced the transom exhaust on Imzadi in 2010 (the OEM fitting was 1 ½” 
and pointed up at about 20-30 degrees, and sprayed a rooster tail out the back 
of the boat), I bought a 2” exhaust through hull on EBay for a bit over $50. 
Here is an example that is on EBay right now, though it is probably too large 
in diameter for your boat:

Thanks for all the info François!   Yes I've come to accept that those stern 
thru-hulls are in fact above DWL, regardless of what the painted waterline 
says.  I'm leaning towards not going to seacocks now, probably will at least 
replace the old thru-hull though with a new marelon one while I'm in there.  
Thanks for the tip on jacking up the fuel tank!

 

You're correct - the 2 small lines are for draining the propane tank 
compartment under the quadrant panel.  I like that the cockpit doesn't need 
scuppers!

 

While I have you - what are your thoughts on the rod rigging on these boats?  
AFAIK, she has all her original standing rigging.   Yes she's been only in 
fresh water so far, but the age still gives me pause.   Have you rerigged yet?

Hi David, 

Congrats on getting the 34+. I've owned mine for 3 years and still think I 
could not have possibly gotten a better boat for what we do.  The promise is 
that is gives you plentiful room and comfort at the marina / anchor and runs 
like a bat out of he$$ around the cans..   It does just that.   

All your questions are really straightforward. 

Exhaust hose:  I replaced mine last year, it's not that bad. Your idea of 
connecting the old one to the new one is excellent.  I just wrestled my old one 
out and taped a fiberglass wiring rod to the new one to pull some / guide it.  
The trick is to remove all the aft stateroom cushions then remove the fuel tank 
access panel and the wooden blocks that are screwed / wedged-in securing the 
fuel tank and find a way to jack-up tank to facilitate threading the new hose 
in under it ( I used 2 x 2's) .  

The challenge to thread the new hose is to line it up between the exposed strut 
bolts.  Stick to the original hose construction / diameter and you'll be fine.  
It's a bit of a sweaty wrestling match but you and 1 other guy should be able 
to knock it out in less than 1 hour. 

"Through-Hulls"  

None of what you mentioned is below the waterline at rest. They get dipped-in 
some when motoring or sailing in excess of 5 or so knots but that's nothing 
that the standard siphon loops can't handle. The 34+ is the last of the 
Canadian C&C's and after 35 + odd years of designing racer cruisers they had it 
down.. Rob Ball knew what he was doing. 

FYI, all through hulls on mine are Marelon.  I close them all everytime I leave 
the boat and they works well, 

Also, there are no cockpit or deck scuppers on the boat.  All cockpit /deck 
water simply flows out the stern / swim platform area in a modern open stern / 
sport boat style.  On my boat there's a drain for the propane locker, also well 
designed.  No need to seal / mess with it as propane is heavier than air and 
flows down the drain like water with its exit above the waterline at rest  
There's no quadrant well.  On my boat The rudder shaft goes up to the quadrant 
that is mounted on top and flush with the cockpit sub-floor.  All that is 
easily accessible by simply removing the triangular fiberglass cover.  

Feel free to PM me for more details on how to tune the boat  / other questions 
of you want.

Stus-List Cockpit drain/scupper screens

2015-06-15 Thread Charles Nelson via CnC-List
I am trying to find replacement screens for the cockpit drains on my 1995 
XL/kcb--built in the Canadian plant between 1993-1995.

It is plastic, 2 5/16" in diameter and white. It is not a Forespar model and my 
internet searches have not turned up anything identical.

Does anyone on the list know where C&C may have sourced these--screen and drain?

Thanks,

Re: Stus-List I need information on a LF38 for sale in Charleston, SC

2015-06-15 Thread Patrick Davin via CnC-List
Looks like a good deal. Especially if that new engine install was well
done.

CNG stove is a downside vs LPG in my opinion. Not sure where they store
their CNG - the box that normally holds LPG tanks under the helm seat is
missing.

Listing says it's a 1981 but specs tab says 1979. Sometimes brokers just
mess up, but would be good to confirm which is which.

No windlass (unless they omitted it from specs) with a big anchor will make
for a good biceps workout. Nice Manson though.

Running rigging needs replacement probably, at least the genoa sheets. Boom
vang is an upgrade, that's nice. Teak toerails need reconditioning.

What is that in front of the stove? A 4' tall refrigerator? Gack.

I would definitely check it out! With close attention to how the engine
repowering was done.

Re: Stus-List depth finder display

My 200 KHz transducer dates back to about 1980 or so and the depth finder
display is on its 4th or 5th version by now. Most depth finders are 200 KHz
and work with most transducers. I have a spare 200 KHz transducer sitting
around if you end up needing one.

Hi, Rick!  A couple of things I noticed:

• In photo #2, it appears that the fixed side windows have been framed with 
something.  Better view in photo #10.

• In photo #3, to bow pulpit looks like it’s been bent quite a bit to port.  
Better check the mounting feet for leaks or glass issues.

• Photo #7: the steering pedestal has been replaced, and the engine controls 
switched over to the Edson dual-lever controls; a nice upgrade.

• Also photo #7: a new pedestal guard and pod for the chartplotter, to go with 
the new pedestal.  Also a nice upgrade.

• Photo #12: this boat has the starboard nav station with the “double” 
quarterberth to port; from the breaker panels, it looks like original 
electrical, so may need some work there.

• Photo #22: agreed on the mini-fridge — ack!

• Photo #25: interesting, my boat has teak ceilings on either side of the 
v-berth, as well as in the quarterberths.  What’s that weird cream-colored 
stuff in this boat?

From the specs:

• Agreed on the engine re-power — if done well, it’s a nice upgrade.

• Also agreed on the stainless holding tank — not a good idea.

• Where are they fitting in 135 gallons of water??  Mine came standard with a 
bow tank, as well as tanks under each of the saloon settees, for a total of 105 
gallons.  I’d have him recheck this number; it seems suspect.  The holding and 
fuel tanks seem a bit generous, too, considering that the holding tank is 
probably under the nav station seat.

• This does look a LOT more like a 1979 than a 1981.

That’s what I see for now.
