Stus-List Viking 34 (like 33) observations?
Hi While the V34 is not out of the C&C shop it was off their design tables. I am considering purchasing a well built and cared for diesel V34. I am looking for props and cons about the design and build.

Re: Stus-List Anyone remove the helm seat?
On my 29 mark1: 1. Removed seat. 2. Redesigned pushpit curved down with swim access walk through, no gate. 3. Platform extending into and out of boat large enough width room and fore/aft length to fit the WM mega blue boat seat. This raised me up enough to see and sit in secured comfort when heeled. Swim ladder folds up providing secure restraint and backing for the seat with short strops to pushpit on wash side of ladder 4. BIG wheel so that I can sail from the rail. Smaller when lashed to Bimini frame as an option on trips. Both wheels lashed to Bimini for Marina and swimming. I also redid the engine panel by necessity. This one also has a bank of breakers for Nav lights, instruments, instrument lights, etc etc. Don Viking 34 C&C 29 for sail on aluminum trailer > On Jul 23, 2014, at 12:00 PM, Tim Goodyear via CnC-List > wrote: > > Joel, I've been thinking of doing this - let me know how you get on.

Re: Stus-List Proper Blower Installation - 30 mki
My fridge compressor/radiator is in the engine compartment. I ran the intake vent piping to the radiator to get the cooler air. The exhaust vent pipe runs to forward lowest area of the engine compartment. I upgraded to 4" to Max the air movement and tried for a quieter exhaust fan. I run exhaust fan separate from the engine on hot days. There is also a initial PO setup for water cooling the compressor. The PO disconnected this. I want to try it again. The thruhull is there waiting for a pipe next summer. The cooler water of the North Channel is cool even on hot days.

Re: Stus-List Forum vs Email list
The wisdom of the far reaches of the corners of our community is not available anywhere else nor documented elsewhere. I am in my third C&C and I am a newbie. Technology changes and transitions in routines loose participants. I so value the sage elders of C&C boats and sailing that loosing their presence would be a huge loss for me. There is a vibrant but fragile community here that is immense and irreplaceable There are searchable archives now. As others also do, I belong to other forums Sailing Anarchy, Cruisers, live aboard, airstream etc etc Some of these work well for me sending new posts forward as emails... This works but their communities are fragmented and often without the wisdom of a quorum of eyes reading. I keep and stash email gems related to my own ideas of topics and projects. Right now the list works well for me by directing them all initially into one C&C folder for reading. ___ Email address: CnC-List@cnc-list.com To change your list preferences, including unsubscribing -- go to the bottom of page at: http://cnc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/cnc-list_cnc-list.com

I enjoy sailing by what I see wind doing and anticipating the changes coming by observing water, clouds and shorelines. When I have raced with wind instruments I have found them useful to backup and verify my thinking but not as a primary tool. I am wondering about an accurate flu gate compass as that is a primary decision making tool upwind and downwind. My reading suggests that accurate and replicable wind data costs big $.

I replaced the old stereo with a Sony unit after I bought the boat. One of the 2 interior speakers worked and the 2 cheapo West cockpit speakers worked. After spending way too much time, I finally figured out that the speaker wire was to corroded to carry a signal. Initially, I replaced most of the wire with household wire. DON"T USE HOUSEHOLD SPEAKER WIRE. That lasted about a season. I finally replaced all of the wire with marine grade wire. Then I discovered that the rubber around the speaker cones disintegrated. I bought 5 1/4 inch car speakers that fit into the enclosures for the cabin speakers, and then found out the cockpit speakers did't work. Turns out someone twisted and taped the connections. New crimp connectors fixed them. Finally, 4 working speakers! Now, need to upgrade the cockpit speakers.

Stus-List Mast Crane Replacement ideas, Pictures and comments Requested

We haul out boats out on a marine railing with our cradle on it. The masts are pulled on dry land while the boat is on the railway. Descriptions, observations and pictures are appreciated!

Re: Stus-List Viking 34 cradle keel and pad weight distribution?
Chuck You are one of my sage sailing heros! Your wordly explanation and link to www.boatstanda.com is very helpful. The pads are on the bulkheads. We are railway and cradle mining car boundso boatstands are for warm far off places... My revised plan is to set the foreword pads as a best guess for the keel contact to be midpoint with clearance under the keel tail as well as under the keel forefoot. The mid and aft pads will be about an inch off the hull as boat settles. Just out of the water we have an A frame hoist to pull masts. We stop there, adjust pads, power wash clean the bottom and pull the mast. Mast up can not go under the A frame hoist so all masts have always come down. The hoist lifts from the forward side of the mast. Double and triple rigs have mast sling challenges LOL which can only resolved with bow deck cows...

Re: Stus-List Voltage Regulators
Hi Wal, I am talking to a company in Ontario Canada about a charging solution. I run an essential CPAP for life threatening APNEA so ... cruising with an assured charging solution is imperative in order to run while on the hook for a week. Yes, I have bought a used windmill and I am working out solar however ... This engine charging solution turns my Yanmar into a genset with an alternator regulator that can automatically change/control the alternator loading from a 35A to 180A so that charging is quicker and does not coke up the engine when on the hook, yet it can can downsize the alternator load on the engine when motoring. This involves changing the belt and pulley, alternator, 2 regulator black boxes, sensors and control panel.
