I did exactly that. The festoon (dimpled) replacement bulb. Make sure that the 
length of the bulb is correct (they come in many variants).

Being totally ignorant on this topic, can someone tell me if there is an LED 
that fits the Aquasignal 25 stern light - and is it just a simple task of 
taking the old incandescent bulb out and replacing with the LED or something 
more complex? I need to replace the lens on my stern light - no replacement 
parts available so have to buy a complete unit and thought I might switch to 
LED at the same time.

Stus-List Was Wire Gauge, now Where can I get LED?

2015-08-22 Thread Jean-Francois J Rivard via CnC-List
Hello Alex, 

I am replacing the cabin lights with this one from Marinebeam: 
http://store.marinebeam.com/bayonet-ba15s-15-led-bayonet-mini-tower/  It’s 
just bright enough.  I tried the 18 and 21 led models too.  They’re a bit 
much.. The 18 is good as a reading light, the 21 is the master blaster at 
the chart table. 

My sternlight burned-out about a month ago.   I did not bother looking for 
a replacement bulb at Marinebeam.. 
I bought this for 16 bucks instead 
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I0BPZ1U?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00
My original fixture’s lens was all crazed and the housing was getting 
brittle…  Now it’s all fresh and new.  It’s well done too watertight with 
O-rings and extremely bright as it is a 12 led array. 

For the tricolor I splurged a little.. 
http://www.westmarine.com/buy/misea--led-navigation-light-tri-color-anchor-lights--P013836226

It’s a bit pricey but it’s the cat’s a$$.  Super bright, high quality 
machined metal housing, no interference with the VHF, automatic anchor 
light, and a killer white light illuminating the Windex.  You get what you 
pay for I guess.. 

I also have a remote control battery powered LED bar light for the engine 
compartment.  It's about 20 bucks at Walmart. It's a peel and stick 
installation and the light switch is also peel and stick.  No wiring. 
Simple and perfect for the engine compartment, the remote switch is nice. 
I am planning on buying more of those

http://www.walmart.com/ip/GE-17528-GE-Under-Cabinet-Light-Fixture-12/21827156?action=product_interest&action_type=title&item_id=21827156&placement_id=irs-106-t1&strategy=PWVUB&visitor_id&category=&client_guid=f3f3b215-f1f0-45be-becb-07836d61e0e0&customer_id_enc&config_id=106&parent_item_id=16561412&parent_anchor_item_id=16561412&guid=66bb66bb-45f0-42b5-9d01-a888a0a07fc4&bucket_id=irsbucket003&beacon_version=1.0.1&findingMethod=p13n

They allow you to alter the shape of your genoa - more twist for power, etc.

Garhauer or Harken.  I have the Lewmar Ocean 1 system.  It's OK but I am
not overly pleased with it.

If you race, they are a great upgrade.  Don't cut any corners.  Spend the
$$$ and get a 4:1 purchase and ball bearing cars.

Stus-List Batten receptacles - huh?

2015-08-22 Thread davepulaski via CnC-List
You guys have been great with helping me get my recently-acquired 34+ sorted 
out.  Couldn't have gotten as far as I have without you! 

So on to the next mystery.   I really wasn't expecting an issue getting the 
mainsail on, but the batten receptacles have me stumped.

The boat has full battens and a harken mainsail luff car system,  with pins 
that go through little fabric loops sewn into the luff of the sail.  

The issue I'm having is with how the battens are supposed to be secured.  They 
slide into their pocket from the luff, and there is a receptable marked 
"Rutgerson" that I assume is supposed to hold the front end of the batten 
somehow. 

There is a short length of webbing  attached to the receptable, which I again 
assume is supposed to go over the end of the batten and provide a means of 
tensioning it.   BUT,  there doesnt appear to be any way to make it fast!  No 
Velcro, no grommets,  no buckles or shackles, etc. 

Here is a pic of the top batten slid into the pocket showing the receptacle & 
strap:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/sn7s37qcnqdd8v8/20150822_143132.jpg?dl=0

Anyone else have this system & care to shed some light?   A google search 
didn't turn up anything useful

Thanks! 
Dave

Looks like the strap has hook and loop on it.  Does it go inside the
vertical metal plate alongside the batten then fold forward on itself?

Hi Kurt,

Not everyone is using a tri-colour at the 
masthead but it is practical in that, when 
sailing, there is nothing to obscure the lower 
lights and one lamp can draw a lot less power than three or four lamps.


Note, if you are motoring then you still need the forward steaming light, etc.

Rule 25 (around page 80) if you're interested.

Hello Alex,

I am replacing the cabin lights with this one 
from Marinebeam: 
http://store.marinebeam.com/bayonet-ba15s-15-led-bayonet-mini-tower/ 
It’s just bright enough.  I tried the 18 and 
21 led models too.  They’re a bit much.. The 
18 is good as a reading light, the 21 is the 
master blaster at the chart table.


My sternlight burned-out about a month ago.   I 
did not bother looking for a replacement bulb at Marinebeam..


I bought this for 16 bucks instead 
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I0BPZ1U?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00


My original fixture’s lens was all crazed and 
the housing was getting brittle…  Now it’s all 
fresh and nnew.  It’s well done too watertight 
with O-rings and extremely bright as it is a 12 led array.


For the tricolor I splurged a little..

http://www.westmarine.com/buy/misea--led-navigation-light-tri-color-anchor-lights--P013836226

It’s a bit pricey but it’s the cat’s 
a$$.  Super bright, high quality machined metal 
housing, no interference with the VHF, automatic 
anchor light, and a killer white light 
illuminating the Windex.  You get what you pay for I guess..


I also have a remote control battery powered LED 
bar light for the engine compartment.  It's 
about 20 bucks at Walmart. It's a peel and stick 
installation and the light switch is also peel 
and stick.  No wiring. Simple and perfect for 
the engine compartment, the remote switch is 
nice.  I am planning on buying more of those

So,



I recently installed a PERKO masthead tri-light 
and want to know if one can insert a replacement 
LED trilight.  I understand that with the narrow 
spectrum range of some LED?s, I might not be 
able to insert a replacement white light LED but 
would need some kind of tri-light bulb.




What have others done for their masthead tri-lights?



Thanks,




Alex Giannelia

If you are motoring, you should not use the tricolor at the masthead.  The
steaming light must be above the red/green nav lights.  Therefore you must
use the deck or hull mounted nav lights when motoring.

Exactly right Dennis.

And if motoring, burning three or four lamps is 
usually not a problem. Hence the desire to go LED 
for a masthead tri-light and the practicality of 
keeping lower lights as incandescent.


You might be astonished at the number of our 
American cousins who race around here at night 
burning every navigation lamp they can, masthead 
tri-colour, forward steaming, red, green and 
after steaming light. Very common on the overnight races.


Cheers, Russ
