Re: Stus-List C&C Nameplate

2016-01-06 Thread Gary W. Russell via CnC-List
Chuck,
 Does your nameplate have an "R" on it?  I can't see any evidence that mine 
had a "+" on it.  I will check the dimensions on the sword.

Thanks,
Gary

I can't see any evidence on mine of having had a "+" or anything else...  I
think you did a phenomenal job of replicating what was there.  I was just
suggesting that since you're so good then making the name plate match would
be nice.

Re: Stus-List Engine Room Original Paint

2016-01-06 Thread Bill Bina via CnC-List
If it does have lead in it, there are precautions for sanding it safely. 
The sanding dust will contain lead. You can find out easily if it has 
lead by purchasing a simple lead test kit at any hardware or home 
improvement store. It's basically a pen that you run along the surface 
and then see if the pen tip changes color.

 The one on Ken's boat is aftermarket and is held on with 2 screws, one
 at each end.  The way I imagined one being made and installed was that the
 original plaque would be ground flush and the new metal plate fitted over
 top.  For attachment I felt like welded on studs (in place of screws) that
 went through the hull/deck was most favorable.  I don't know any of the
 engineering hurdles.  To be honest, an automotive body shop would just use
 3M VHB tape.

 The pictures should be sufficient to create a scale model.  The height
 is roughly 2.5 inches.  I'll try to get real measurements asap so that the
 scale can be applied to achieve the correct finished size.

Chuck,
 I think I have discovered the problem.  The sword on my nameplates has
the "blade" 3 times the length of the other points of the star.  But I
measured the sword on other pictures where the "blade" is over 4 times the
length of the other points.  So, apparently, the C&C sword/dagger/star is
not standardized.

Re: Stus-List Engine acoustic insulation, incl. sources in

2016-01-06 Thread Sophia Weber via CnC-List
I'd be interested in getting some engine acousting insulation as well (also
in Toronto) as I don't think my boat has any in it. At least it doesn't
sound like it does! Can barely hear crew if they are not immediately in
front of me over all of the noise.

Crewed a few races on a C&C30 this year (also on this list), and could
barely hear the engine was on! So there is definitely something I should be
able to do with my gal as well. If anybody finds a good deal somewhere,
please let me know. Maybe there will be something at the boat show?

Hi,

I've purchased soundproofing products from Acoustiguard for use in my house
and was happy with them as a supplier. I can't speak specifically to the
Barymat product.

I'm also planning to replace my engine compartment insulation as it is
disintegrating. I was thinking of Roxul AFB at first and then just saw
Acoustiguard has a fibreglass faced mineral fibre board called ML Board
that might be worth pricing out. Comes in 1" or 2" thickness and says its
uses include engine enclosure linings.

The Barymat BTMM-14C is foil faced, 1.25" thick and says its suitable for
marine use (dirty, wet or oily). Might be worth getting pricing on as
well...

Re: Stus-List Furler system

2016-01-06 Thread Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List
Curtis

I the sails are that old and you do plan to enter some club races consider 
going 135% and tossing the old sails into a storage bin and throw away the key. 
 Find your area phrf adjustments to ensure the sail is not just over a 
threshold and go from there.  In our area the standard boat comes with 155% 
headsail with no adjustment, up to 135 with +6 sec/mile, 110 or less with 12 
sec /mile.  Note that these adjustments are for MASTHEAD RIGS ONLY (ex. C&C 
30-1) sailing with no spinnaker.  There is an additional adjustment for 
masthead non spinnaker boats of a further +18 sec/mile.

A C&C Redwing 30 at our club went thru exactly your exercise a few years back. 
They ended up with a 135% furling headsail and dropped the old 150 hank on from 
their inventory.  The 135 being new was far faster than the old 150 in all 
winds and also gave them the 6 sec/mile adjustment.  Their overall happiness 
was thru the roof as they now had the convenience of a 135.  My friends with 
the Redwing do between 5 and 10 club races a year mostly against other mom and 
pop boats like the C&C 30-1 (there are four or five at the club) and one other 
redwing 30.   They had North Sails Atlantic perform the work and provide the 
sails and furling.

Best of luck with this.  You and your wife will LOVE IT!!!

Re: Stus-List winter condensation

2016-01-06 Thread Hoyt, Mike via CnC-List
A few years back I purchase an Eva Dry condensorless dehumidifier 
https://www.eva-dry.com/dehumidifiers/eva-dry-1100-petite-dehumidifier/

(I am not sure if condensorless is a word but I think it works in this case)

This is a 12v unit that weights approx. 4 lbs and removes up to one cup of 
water per day.  The unit comes with a 110v wall plug adaptor but for some 
reason not the 12v cord.  Whenever we are at our dock I plug this in and leave 
it on all the time.  When we go sailing I put it on a shelf over the settee 
since it is very small and light.  If I was to be away from the boat for 
extended periods I could probably drill a hole in the reservoir and place it in 
the sink to provide drainage.  This is a great unit and when mine finally dies 
I will buy another.  It beats the Heck out of dragging a full sized 
dehumidifier on and off a boat as I used to do on previous boats

Note that I obviously do not use this once the temps fall below freezing

I worry about leaving heating appliances running while I'm not there.  I bought

I run a ceramic style "cube" heater set about 10 degrees F above ambient and on

80 bucks CDN is my winter electric bill.

If it gets really cold, like now it's at freezing, then I might get some

Re: Stus-List Furler system

2016-01-06 Thread Marek Dziedzic via CnC-List
+1 for the Furlex. I had Furlex on my C&C 24 and now I have a Harken A00. Night 
and day. Furlex is substantially easier to attach (and detach) when you take 
the mast down or step the mast back (and we do it twice a year).

I think both (Harken and Furlex) are designed for DIY installation (the 
instructions are very detailed).

You will need a new headstay (or at least re-swage it).

I would toss the old hank-on sails and get a new 135 jib. The 135 is assuming 
that you have “average” winds. Some people like even smaller sails, if the area 
where you sail has strong winds. You should be able to get a new jib for under 
$1500.

Curtis,

I installed a Furlex 200s on my last boat. The rigger/sail maker that sold it 
to me evidently was not supposed to allow me to install it myself. I think that 
for the same price he would have done the work. I just like DIY. The 200s is 
their smallest furler and would probably be sufficient for your application. I 
really like the design A LOT! One thing to consider is the annual maintenance. 
With Harken, the delrin bearings don't require anything but a freshwater rinse 
and some mclube. Furlex has SS bearings which are supposed to be fresh water 
rinsed and greased. SS seems more durable but heavier and requires more-ish 
maintenance. A Furlex comes with a new headstay which, if you decide to install 
yourself, can be easily made up and terminated with the included swageless 
fitting. Really nice. Well engineered. I paid ~1200 for the furler and then 
after installation had a sail made for ~$1300.

BTW the headstay is a single point vulnerability which could cause a loss of 
the mast. If it hasn't been replaced, it probably should be. I would take this 
opportunity to upsize the wire. I'm currently having the rod rigging in my 30 
year old furler replaced. Upsized from #12 to #17 Navteq rod. Break strength 
from 12500 to 17500 and only about 3 lbs heavier. Just piece of mind.

Agree.  My 2 cents.  I usually don't see a problem mold until the spring, but 
this winter near Annapolis, I had the white mildew on wood panels and doors and 
some black on white ceilings, all due I think to condensation collecting where 
verticles meet horizontals.  Spent half a day wiping down the wood with Pinesol 
spray mix.  It came clean very easily.  But I need to re-oil the teak.  The 
ceilings came clean using a damp sponge.  Now it's below freezing so I expect 
the problem will be dormant till we see OA temps above 50 again.  I don't 
believe in heaters or electrical devices powered while I am not present, so

expect it may help to do that this spring.

Stus-List Wheel replacement C&C35 mk3

Thanks all for info and perspectives on the retro-wheel-fit.  Chuck G,
thanks for the Edson help.  The ebay pic showed the wheel on an Edson ped
but you may be right on with the metric possibility.  I will not modify the
hub shaft. I will toy around with the wheel.   I have an additional Edson
shaft (changed it out to accept a new raymarine autopilot) I will take them
both to a shop...

Thanks again.

Stus-List Headsail

2016-01-06 Thread James Nichols via CnC-List
I am trying to figure out my head sail arrangement.  I don't have self furling, 
I do have rod rigging (probably original, will be thoroughly inspected before I 
put it under stress). 
I am guessing that the track that I have on the front stay is there because you 
can't hank directly onto the rod. 
My question is, how freely is that track supposed to swivel around the rod? 
Mine seems pretty still, and I would think that isn't a good thing for the rod 
when you change tacks and the track puts the extra rotational stress on the rod.
Thanks for any input.

A few years back I purchase an Eva Dry condensorless dehumidifier 
https://www.eva-dry.com/dehumidifiers/eva-dry-1100-petite-dehumidifier/

(I am not sure if condensorless is a word but I think it works in this case)

This is a 12v unit that weights approx. 4 lbs and removes up to one cup of 
water per day.  The unit comes with a 110v wall plug adaptor but for some 
reason not the 12v cord.  Whenever we are at our dock I plug this in and leave 
it on all the time.  When we go sailing I put it on a shelf over the settee 
since it is very small and light.  If I was to be away from the boat for 
extended periods I could probably drill a hole in the reservoir and place it in 
the sink to provide drainage.  This is a great unit and when mine finally dies 
I will buy another.  It beats the Heck out of dragging a full sized 
dehumidifier on and off a boat as I used to do on previous boats

Note that I obviously do not use this once the temps fall below freezing

I'm  having the same problems as everyone else.  Never before.

I worry about leaving heating appliances running while I'm not there.  I bought

heater.  Oddly, I have a engine block heater which I don't have any fear of

I run a ceramic style "cube" heater set about 10 degrees F above ambient and on

80 bucks CDN is my winter electric bill.

If it gets really cold, like now it's at freezing, then I might get some

Stus-List Acoustic Insulation

2016-01-06 Thread James Nichols via CnC-List
You might look into Mineral Wool insulation. 
It is dense and works great as a mass based sound dampener,  it is fire proof,  
so engine heat will have no effect on it.  Non-toxic,  fairly rigid,  easy to 
shape with a serrated blade. 
Tons of benefits and I can't think of any drawbacks. 
You should be able to find it in a big box hardware store inexpensively as 
well.

I hang the CaCl in nylon stockings over big buckets in the v-berth, head, and

Cut nylon in half, fill each leg 1/2 way,  lasts about a month and no worries 
about overflow.

Plus my girlfriend loves it when I use her nylons for stuff like that.

Someone mentioned mold/mildew formation.  I used to get that but don't now that 
I wash the interior with a diluted bleach solution  before I put the boat away

>… the track that I have on the front stay…

James,

Do you have pictures of Kristy’s forestay available online?

Your description makes me think you may have a 70’s era StreamStay type 
headsail luff rope system.  Do your headsails have hanks attached or a luff 
tape/rope?

If you do have the original twin groove type extrusion over your rod rigging 
forestay it is likely to top and bottom bearings have frozen up preventing it 
from rotating.  If that is the case and you want a similar headsail system I 
recommend you drop into the cnc-list Furler discussion now underway.  Harken 
has a great web site that will have drawings and pictures of their 
forestay/furler products.  There are several other quality furler systems 
available and others here on the cnc-list will be able to make recommendations.

 This topic came up last year and I will put forward the same offer.

 I own / work at a shop that has CNC machining capability and 3D solid
 modeling expertise. We work with solid models every day. My engineer is
 also an enthusiast of 3D printing and last year bought his own printer,
 although I am not sure of the size of it. It is able to print to different
 grades and / or quality of acrylic.

 I would like to offer to produce a solid model at the least. The beauty
 of a model is you can see what it looks like prior to building anything.
 There are lots of manufacturing or production techniques that can be used
 to make these depending on the material one wants to use. From what I
 recall the ones with the raised letter (maybe acrylic) were also "recessed"
 into the cabin. I think the ones on Ken's boat are proud of the surface and
 maybe were never recessed or this was filled up.

 I believe where it left off last time was someone was going to make a
 sketch or more specifically a "rubbing" of the outline so we had at least
 the outer dimensions and scale of the logo and star.

I have a Head Foil on my forestay – twin grooves to handle two sails (put the 
new one up while the old one is up and then dump the old one). It fit pretty 
tightly on the forestay, but I guess it would spin if forced. No furling. The 
sails have rope luffs. 

 

James, if your sails have hanks on them, then I have no idea what you have up 
there.

Beautiful day here on Vashon Island.  High 40's and sunny!  Great

As promised.  Looks like the paint on the raised portion is all wore 
off.  But aside from that they are in pretty good shape.


Dimensions are 19 3/8" X 2."  Also the bottom edge appears to be 
about  ~1/4' thicker than the top.

Re: Stus-List winter condensation

2016-01-06 Thread Patrick Davin via CnC-List
One thing to keep in mind is that at some point the surface area of calcium
chloride exposed becomes more important than how much volume/weight of it
you have. I've found a big tub of Damprid will eventually form a solid
layer at the top. At that point all the bulk dry salt under there is doing
you no good. It helps to stir it up / break up the surface scale once in a
while, but more important is how much surface area you have exposed -
instead of one bucket I do many small containers around the boat, mostly in
the cabinets/cupboards which don't have good air flow.

The 4-lb Damprid tubs come with some grayish filler beads in it which are
intended to help determine when the tub is used up. They also sell smaller
packs without the filler beads, useful if you're subdividing Damprid into
multiple containers.

It's $10 for the 4-lb tub:

Stus-List Jib sheet

2016-01-06 Thread Michael Crombie via CnC-List

The Toronto Boat show is approaching and i'm putting together my list. My jib 
sheets have seen better days so I need to replace them.

Am thinking of going with a single sheet with a ring hitch at the clew because 
my bowlines tend to snag on the baby stay.  Is there any reason NOT to do this??

Also, any recommendations on material? I don't race (this boat), just coastal 
cruising.

Re: Stus-List winter condensation

Agree with you about higher moisture this year on the Chesapeake. 
Once the temps stay below 40, it should be less of a problem? But for now, the 
sun warms the air and the moisture condenses on cold surfaces of the boat 
interior. 

I'm reading the other responses, but I'm not sure that DampRid is worth the 
trouble. I'm sure it works, but I doubt it would prevent the droplets forming 
on the cold overhead surfaces.

The one on Ken's boat is aftermarket and is held on with 2 screws, one at each

plaque would be ground flush and the new metal plate fitted over top. For 
attachment I felt like welded on studs (in place of screws) that went through 
the hull/deck was most favorable. I don't know any of the engineering hurdles. 
To be honest, an automotive body shop would just use 3M VHB tape. 

The pictures should be sufficient to create a scale model. The height is 
roughly 2.5 inches. I'll try to get real measurements asap so that the scale

The ring hitch might be extremely difficult to remove at year end...but 
a bowline in a bight might be a better choice if you are going to take the

sheets off at end of season.  Could also use a soft shackle.

If you really tighten up your bowlines I can't see why they would bind 
on the baby stay anymore than any other knot.

Re: Stus-List Jib sheet

2016-01-06 Thread Chuck Gilchrest via CnC-List
Mike,
If you ever need to cut free a jib sheet, (to deal with a winch override or
other calamity) it is better to have two sheets tied to the clew than just
one continuous sheet with a cow hitch in the middle (or even luggage tagged
to the sail).  If you tie your bowlines with small eyes and long tails, you
won't likely snag your baby stay with the knot.  If you're contemplating the
single sheet alternative, don't put any hardware at the connection point to
the clew as you'll get whacked by it when the sail if flogging and it will
hurt like hell!
Having been a bow guy on a C&C 40 for 10+ years (with a baby stay), I can
testify to the wisdom of having two sheets.

The Toronto Boat show is approaching and i'm putting together my list. My
jib sheets have seen better days so I need to replace them.

Am thinking of going with a single sheet with a ring hitch at the clew
because my bowlines tend to snag on the baby stay.  Is there any reason NOT
to do this??

Also, any recommendations on material? I don't race (this boat), just
coastal cruising.

Thanks all!!  Always a good call to double check with this list.

I'll stick with separate sheets.

Wally, 
You have been silent for too long yet, living your dream in Mexico/Baja, you 
remain a legend and are missed like Harrison Ford from a Star Wars movie. 
Bit of advice if you have a son; don't give him a hug if he carries a "Light

Hey, Happy Holidays. Yes, I've been AWOL. I've had messages pile up,

2015 was a weird year, with surgeries and pregnant women and lots of

Re: Stus-List Jib sheet

2016-01-06 Thread Chuck Gilchrest via CnC-List
Mike,
As a sheet material for cruising, you're not going to go wrong with a
polyester double braid.  Higher tech ropes (Technora, Spectra, Dyneema,
Vectran) tend to have lower stretch, but will be stiffer and tend to take a
"set" around a winch which can lead to tangles and twists in the rope when
you tack.  If you're not racing (and even if you are, you're constantly
trimming and easing the sail)  the low stretch aspect of the sheet material
is insignificant compared to how much the rope can get hockled and  tangled
up in the cockpit when you're trying to furl the jib.  A rope with a good
hand, not terribly slippery on a winch drum, and torsion free beats the heck
out of bird's nest of twisted line in the cockpit.  Talk to the folks at
Fogh Marine, Dock Shoppe, or stop by the Western Marine/Transat booth at the
show to get a  recommendation on a good quality sheet line for your boat.
I'd make a recommendation myself but it wouldn't be terribly objective
And let us know all about the show after you go!
Cheers,

I also have double sheets with eyes and soft shackles.  Sail zips through
the foretriangle with no hanging up on the shrouds.  Highly recommended.

Hi Tom,
 Wow, your nameplates are in really good shape.  They don't look like
acrylic.  It's obviously a material that stands up better.  I have made
some improvements to my model since yesterday and now includes the "R".
