I've been crewing on an Abbott 33 on Tuesday nights for 4 or 5 years now.
Really enjoy it, for sure. Father/son team so the dynamic can be pretty

I bed everything with butyl now, after having read that article on the 
compass marine website.  I have not been disappointed yet.


I always do as compass instructs.  If cored, over drill, plug off, 
re-drill, countersink holes and bed with butyl.

Thanks Chris.  Good to know rot is not a concern.  The stanchion bends 
are subtle and not creased so a vice should be able to straighten.

the boat with the stanchions in front of me.  I'm sure I'll it will

On Wednesday, July 13, 2016, Chris Duer

Assuming we're not talking about severe enough bends that the
stanchion has a crease, that is a reasonable plan.  There likely
isn't any rot because the deck core terminates before the
stanchions and toe rail.

Check your stanchion bases for vertical cracks on the outboard
side (in line with the set screws).  You may need to replace them,
I did on my 1978 34.

I found it helpful to bore a "stanchion diameter" hole through side to 
side in a length of 4x4 post that was clamped to my workbench. That held 
the stanchion securely exactly at the right point without creating any 
new problems while coaxing back to straightness.

Stus-List Sail Measurements - C&C 32

2016-07-14 Thread Stevan Plavsa via CnC-List
Hi All,

Boat is far away. I did the measurements but screwed up the "I"
measurement, I measured to the top of the coach roof rather than to the
deck. I actually went through this exercise over 3 years ago with the boat
on the hard and these are my measurements form back then.

My measurement to the coach roof was 38' 10".
Sailboatdata.com has the C&C 32 "I" measurement at 41.12'. That's a
difference of over two feet, which seems like too much to me the coach
roof doesn't take up 2 feet.

Has anyone taken these measurements on their C&C 32, would you care to
share them?
I measured max hoist to 40' 5" and the "J" as 12' 3.5". Would be curious to
see how I measure up to other C&C 32 owner's measurements. I'de rather not
drive up to the boat tonight :/
It's starting to look like I might have to.

Thanks,
Steve

Stus-List Bending Stainless...

2016-07-14 Thread David via CnC-List
So on the Figawi I ask my crew to tighten the cunningham with a four part 
tackle.  Nothing happens.  So I ask them is the tackle pulling on the 
cunningham and not some stationary object.  Nope, they reply, "its good".  So 
they take the four part tackle tail to a halyard winch and all of a sudden 
there is movement.   As it was 25 knots I figured it was just a high load day.

Nope.  They literally bent one ear of the 3/8 thick stainless-steel mainsail 
tack yoke down 180 degrees.

Doh!

Can I just re-bend it with or without heat?Will it be compromised if I do 
so.

You might want to have a machine shop do the bending--I doubt the usual home 
workshop tools will do the job. Perhaps if you apply heat you might get it done 
but bending a 3/8" piece of SS
is not for the faint of heart!  
 
I always take such SS jobs to a shop--they can do it easily and usually for a 
fraction, sometimes nothing, of a boat buck.

We just redid some of ours as there were suspected leaks, and did the same as 
danny suggested below. Stanchion bases are tight now, leaks fixed. Butyl is the 
way to go Imho. (And check for soft spots nearby while you are at it- we had a

This is a quote from the USSailing "History of US PHRF Affiliated Handicaps 
2016" document.
USSailing may have some data but from a quick search I did not see a summary.

PHRF racing participation is declining across the country. While there are many 
factors that
have caused this decrease in participation, one of the recurring complaints 
voiced by racers and
race organizers alike is that PHRF handicaps are not always fair.

Re: Stus-List Bending Stainless...

2016-07-14 Thread Bill Coleman via CnC-List
Do not apply heat to Stainless. Two things, if hot enough it will anneal it
and make it dead soft with little of its former strength, and second, it
will likely rust after you do.

Stainless can be bent several times before it will break.  We cold form all
SS, it is simply the way it is done. One thing you will notice, the more it
is cold formed, the more magnetic it will become.  If you anneal it, it will
lose most of its magnetism.  And then, rust, of course, unless you properly
quench it. 

 If you can remove the parts to a very solid vice, you can put some copper
or aluminum jaw protectors in to hold the SS Parts.  Sometimes it is handy
to find appropriately sized pipe or heavy tube to help with the bending. If
you have to beat them, use a copper hammer. I keep a medium copper hammer
and a rawhide hammer in my boat toolbox for 'adjustments'.

I have straightened Stanchions by putting a 7/8" rod in a vice to slip the
stanchions over, then slipping a 1" aluminum pipe over the stanchion to bend
back.

There is a surprising amount of sailboat racing in Colorado.  The Dillon
Yacht Club is active during the summer with lots of events.
http://www.dillonyachtclub.com/
It's the highest elevation yacht club in the US.  It's always closed for
the season when I'm out that way skiing but there are lots of boats on the
hard at the club.

Some years back, I was contracted to go get a Wavelength 24 and bring it
back to Louisiana.  It had been raced extensively on Dillon Lake and Carter
Reservoir outside Boulder.

Definitely, Bed-it is different--much stickier and flexible than most other 
varieties. 
 
I found out the hard way that the butyl tape I got somewhere else (travel 
trailer store or on-line?) was much less flexible than Bed-it. 
It may have been dried out or it just was made that way. Anyway, if it is not 
flexible enough, it will not compress properly and will 
leak.
 
OTOH, if you find nice flexible butyl tape which I also found on-line, it works 
fine.

Re: Stus-List Offshore passages as crew - where to start?

Thanks Tom, I’ll check out the crew bank, that seems like a good resource.
Crazy about the storm/becalmed situation…

I won’t be able to make it to Thetis (at least, not without seriously
inconveniencing my employees) but would love to meet up with other Puget
Sound C&C owners sometime soon - maybe a sail to Blake Island in the fall?

1/2 the fleet is becalmed and the rest is facing a huge storm.  Looks like

My recent trip to Tofino and the west coast of Vancouver Island has
convinced me I want to do more offshore passages, and eventually cross
oceans. I have a fair amount of experience sailing around Puget Sound/San
Juans/etc. and feel like I?d be fairly useful addition to most crews.

If you had very little offshore sailing experience and had set a goal of
sailing to or from Hawaii within the next 1-3 years (crewing on somebody
else?s boat), how would you go about it?

Stus-List Circuit Breaker Panels for 1981 C&C 36

I was wondering if anyone knew what brand, type, etc.  single pole 
marine circuit breakers would fit in the original panels that were 
installed on a 1981 C&C 36?  My original panels are in great shape, but 
I have three or four circuit breakers that are no longer functioning and 
must be replaced.


I am hoping that this will not be as painful a project as some are.  Any

Re: Stus-List stanchion re-bedding (with Butyl)

2016-07-14 Thread Marek Dziedzic via CnC-List
Jeremy,

you want that tape from Maine Sail (Compass Marine). It IS much better than 
just about anything else. 

Of course, your problem is that the shipping to Canada would cost you more than 
the tape itself. If you are around Vancouver, consider shipping it to a UPS 
store on the US side and driving there to pick it up. I shipped it to a friend 
who winters in Arizona and he brought it back in the spring. Maybe you could 
use someone who sails out of the very NW corner of the US.

Another option might be to order more and split it with a few neighbours. 
Depending on how much you need. But if you need it for a few minor projects, a 
roll of that tape is plenty and a minimum order is two rolls.

Is there a need for marine grade (Bed-It) butyl tape, or is the stuff I can get

Hi Edd, 

Yes, we're lake sailors here in Colorado :) Have a look at my photo album at 
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-NqAxQ6JxFTY0VBM2hlT0hveDQ and you can see 
the lake I sail on. But we get to the Caribbean, Gulf, and Pacific whenever we 
can :) 

There's actually quite a healthy sailing scene here, with racing yacht clubs at 
Chatfield, Cherry Creek, and Dillon Reservoirs, and at Carter Lake. The racing 
at Dillon in particular is very competitive (and the mountain winds pretty 
violent). The scene may be vibrant here precisely because there are so few 
suitable bodies of water for keelboats, serving a pretty large urban corridor 
and population base. 

All that said, I just finished an analysis of participation in my club's 
keelboat series by year since 2012. We had 37 boats in 2012, and have 
alternated between 31 and 25 ever since. So yeah, a 33% decline in five years. 
Causes include people getting old, people moving, people too busy with other 
things, and probably people not wanting to spend the money any more. We've had 
good luck finding people to crew by starting a meetup group. Of course we get a 
variety of experience levels, but it's been a good way to find new people 
interested in sailing around here. 

Cheers, 
Randy

Randy, 

By “everywhere”, I meant everywhere on Western LI Sound. I don’t know what 
things are like in Colorado. Heck, I didn’t even know you could sail in 
Colorado. Ski, yes. Sail? Wow. Looks pretty land-locked on my map. 

In my area, you can see the decline on sites like yachtscoring.com . But 
there’s been a lot I can see with my own eyes, along with the chatter around 
the clubs/boards. I think they can yelled Block Island Race Week this year 
because of too few entries. 

It’s a shame, but I get it. Times are tough and racing (moreso than just 
cruising) gets expensive. People are also working more and spending more time 
with their spouses and kids — getting crew to consistently participate is a 
challenge too. 

All the best,

There's probably some truth to the complaint that PHRF handicaps are not fair

have caused this decrease in participation, one of the recurring complaints 
voiced by racers and 
race organizers alike is that PHRF handicaps are not always fair.

"Racing numbers are down everywhere". Edd where can I find published data on 
that? 

I'm doing that analysis right now for my club, using published race results 
dating back to (only) 2012 to study the number of boats racing each year. I 
haven't finished the analysis yet, but I can already tell we're down at least 
20% from 2012. We seem to be holding at about 28 boats across six fleets for 
the last two years. We gain a boat or two each year, but we lose a boat or two 
each year.

Yeah, Dillon is a hot scene. Last year 36 one-design boats and 22 PHRF boats:

But it's a violent place to sail. Two years ago at the Buccaneer 18 national 
championships a microburst knocked down the whole fleet, breaking masts and 
requiring rescues, etc:

Wow, I am surprised that you have 28 PHRF racers at that small lake, it doesn’t 
look like there are much more that 28 in the whole marina . Even more surprised 
to find PHRF Racing at 5,000 feet. And I was stunned to see racing, and 8 nice 
Starboats racing at 9,500 feet at Frisco Bay on Dillon Reservoir last month.

All – 

For your local races, how many use PHRF vs ORC or other? TOT vs TOD? 



Thanks,
