I don't think the auction boats are a good deal, unless you absolutely
wanted one of those particular hulls. The killer for me is the missing
winches. By the time you add them back in, the initial purchase price will
be around 50K, and there are a lot of project boats in that price range that
would require less work to equip and sail.

The new USCG boats (Leadership 44) are Morris Yachts built. Practical sailor

The Naval Academy boats up for auction are MK1 with ultra utilitarian

WTF is up with that logo?

Also the 30 looks like any generic sport boat and the Redline 41 - with a
draft of over 8 feet - won't sell boat 1 to anyone with any cruising ideas
at all on the East Coast south of New England. That boat couldn't get within

Well, I agree with the sentiment if not the content.

> Sabre...priced one of them lately.

Actually... Yes (although they are no longer making sailboats).  In fact I
sold a 386 to return to C&C, albeit of the Tartan vintage.  I don't regret
the decision for a minute.  I believe there are several "list lurkers" that
might surprise you.

I very much liked the exterior of the redline 41 and were it not for my 121
which I am in love with I would likely be giving them a call.  The interior
needs to be reworked but I believe he mentioned other designs.  I wish them
well. Like many on this list I just think they are fighting an uphill battle
with the 30.  They may well prove me the idiot I am and end up selling
thousands of boats.  I hope they do.

If I had a choice, I would prefer to see a return to what Tartan did
originally with the 110/121 - a really good performance cruiser.  Of course,
if I was in the majority Tartan never would have sold the band.  As I
recall, the comment in 1999 was that the boat needed a C&C logo on the
shower door to prove it was a C&C.  Nope, not a lot of love from the Niagara
crowd.  

So yes, we probably all should be a bit more open minded.  In a few years,
we may well find a few generation next C&C's on this list.

The Farmall engine does not have a common bore and stroke with the A4, so the

Not too sure about this. While I agree that the A4 was never used in a tractor, 
the farmall engines do have a lot of common parts with the A4. If memory 
servers me right (and this comes from way,way back) the pistons, rings, 
connecting rods and bearings were all shared with both designs. I know we used 
a lot of those parts when we rebuilt one in the mid 80s, the dark ages. I don't

The A4 has no common parts with a tractor with one exception. There is a “land” 
version of the carb that can be found for cheap and was used on a lot of 
industrial equipment. It is quite dangerous on a boat because instead of a 
scavenging tube to suck extra fuel back into the engine, it has a drain to let 
it run out of the bottom of the carb.

One more thing for A4 or potential A4 owners:

The A4 has kind of turned into an “open source” project. You can now build an 
A4 that is vastly better than the original stock engine. Moyer Marine 
(http://www.moyermarine.com <http://www.moyermarine.com/> ) and Indigo 
(www.atomic4.com <http://www.atomic4.com/> ) have any number of modifications 
and accessories that did not exist years ago. The A4 is arguably much better 
supported now than it was 20 years ago. There was kind of a “dark age” of A4s 
where Universal quit making them, the aftermarket was not yet mature, and most 
shops would do a ½-A55 job of fixing them at best and tell you to buy a new 
diesel.

Re: Stus-List Fuel tank

Nah – you T the fuel return to the vent line. You need the hot fuel to dump 
back in the tank, not recycle right back to the engine.

As for the returns on multiple tanks , I  read about a guy 
delivering a Viking motoryacht that looked aft and saw a trail of fuel. Some 
research into the fuel valves showed fuel from A going to B when B was full 
already. Some airplanes do this too. If you don’t use the tanks in the correct 
order you will be venting a lot of $6/gal fuel over the side.

IIRC that is not a good idea.  Many diesel engines return more fuel than they 
use.  Some of the extra fuel is used for cooling the injectors.

 

I have a vague memory of a story regarding having two fuel tanks and one fuel

Beware that the LEDs, especially when used with PWM dimmers will create
flicker. Most often that flicker is not noticeable, but it exists and it
does affect the eyes. How this affects you would of course depend on the
application. But reading may not be the best. The opposite end of the
spectrum would be using dimmed lights for the cabin lighting when you are
sailing at night (it won't affect you at all at the helm).

I have seen people use $50 propane camping stoves to replace 2 burner alky 
stoves. It is safe with appropriate precautions.

I have a CNG 4 burner stove and oven. I absolutely LOVE it except the fuel is 
getting harder to find and is quite expensive. Until the last kitchen remodel 
it was better than the stove in my house. 

We also got good use out of a 1 burner Sea-Swing offshore. Nothing beats that 
for extreme weather cooking.

Re: Stus-List Bermuda to Norfolk

2013-06-30 Thread Joe Della Barba
I have sailed Annapolis to Bermuda 3 times. Bermuda is *AN* island, not a
chain of islands. It is very different from the any other islands you will
go to. Far from being 3rd world, Bermuda is very 1st world. The beaches and
water are fantastic. Sailing can be great, but not a lot of people sail
place-to-place once they get there.

I've never sailed Bermuda, but I've sailed the BVI's and the Bahamas. I

Re: Stus-List inflatable repairs - Porta-Bote

I love my Avon RIB, but if I go offshore I'll need to get something like
that. I do not want to tow a dinghy in the ocean. It gets scary with any big
waves behind you - the dinghy tries to pass you.

I have an 8.5 foot Porta-Bote. It planes with a 3.5 hp motor with two adults
aboard. It is a dry ride compared to an inflatable. It weighs 60 pounds, and
I hand launch and retrieve it over the side. I can unfold it or fold it on
my C&C 27 foredeck. When folded, It is like having a 9 foot surfboard lashed
to my lifelines. New, it cost less than half what a comparable inflatable
would run, and didn't require a big heavy, expensive motor to push it. It
also rows very well, like a hard dinghy, tracks straight, and tows as if it
isn't there. I have dragged it over broken glass, sharp rocks and rusty
metal scrap without any damage. I can climb into it from the water as it is
very stable. Bottom line is that I would never buy another inflatable. I'll
also never need to buy any new dinghy as this one will no doubt outlive me.

Hi,

Looks like this is the weak point for the AX-series ( old red Bombard, if
this is what you have ). They are made of PVC-Strongan .

Mine has same problem, I took it to a repair shop last week :

350.00  to reglue a good part of the transom, fix 2 holes, re-glue one of
the "cups" that hold the surrounding rope ( hand-hold )

650.00 same repairs but he replaces the transom ( inspect yours, often they
are rotten in the lower corners/joints because of water intrusion ), new
transom would be made of Russian plywood, supposedly the best.

 

I am thinking about buying a cheap new one ( most are made in China ) but
after seing several in like-new condition in his shop that all need to be
re-glued I am not sure what to do.. Still thinking.

If you want to repair it youeself, here is what you need:

https://www.blyacht.com/inflatable/entretien-reparation/glue-for-pvc-stronga
n-zodiac-in-25cc-tube.html

Before you have to clean it well with MEK ( NOT acetone ).

 

I also learned from the shop manager that THE best product to protect
everything vinyl/rubber/plastic is 303 ( aerospace protector ), he showed me
a 25 years-old inflatable which is treated with this product and it still
looks like new ( and much easier to apply than StarBrite and other products
).

I have a Bombard inflatable (a Zodiac product) and one of the pontoons has
separated from the transom.

 

Has anyone made this repair?

 

Specifically what adhesive did you use?

Any reason why you wouldn't just buy the 2nd boat, rename her Indigo, and
sell your current boat for $10-12k? Seems a lot easier to switch stuff from
the current Indigo to a better boat than to go through the hassles and cost
of rebuilding two boats.

Greetings,

 

Here is an interesting solution to updating some of INDIGO's gear,
particularly the rigging.

 

We have an opportunity to buy a boat like ours (same year/model). However,
the available boat has a new mast, boom, standing rigging, furler, sails,
etc. There are some new winches, pedestal, etc. All this for $15K. Is it
feasible to buy the second boat, swap the newer gear for our older gear
(that we're preparing to replace anyway), put our older gear on the second
boat and either part it out or donate it? Maybe our yard would not do this
work for us.

 

Anybody wanna free boat?

I have fixed the opposite issue where it won't work because the drive pin

BTW - do not EVER let all the plastic gears come apart. It is about 20 times

Re: Stus-List 34R hull

2013-10-13 Thread Joe Della Barba
Owning an old 35 MK I, I wouldn't say the old boats were indestructible
tanks like an Out Island. The build weight of a 35 was supposed to be 10,500
pounds, which was kind of light for a 35 foot boat back in the day. I will
say the boat has held up for 40 years of now of some very heavy use, so
obviously the boat is strong enough. The hull does work in a heavy sea -
unlike many newer boats a lot of the internal structure is kind of floating
in the liner and doesn't really reinforce the boat. The keel attachment with
the stub keel the lead bolts to IS a lot better than a lot of newer boats.
It isn't as fast though as a narrow piece of lead bolted straight to the
hull.

Hi Chuck,

 

The schedule was different for the 37+ (& XL). The XL was built with the 37+
schedule unless you specifically ordered the R schedule.  For example, I
have the build file for hull #72 and the sales order shows the owner paid
$4,000.00 extra for the "37R Laminate Hull & Deck" in his build.

 

Don't forget the laminate wasn't just "1 oz chop and 1 oz mat", it also had
two layers of C72K/100 Kevlar Fabmat, one layer inside the balsa and one out
above the waterline.

 

Below the waterline the layup was one layer 1 oz. chop, one layer 1 oz. mat
and one layer of C77K/200 Kevlar Fabmat outside the balsa and one layer of
C72K/100 Fabmat inside.  This Fabmat is much heavier than the 1 oz. chop and
1 oz. mat at about 2.47 oz. for the C72K/100 and 4.94 oz. for the C77K/200.

 

The layup was much heavier at the turn of the bilge across the (almost) flat
bottom of the hull to the keel sump as an additional two layers of C77/200
Kevlar Fabmat were added and further, in the keel sump, the balsa was
replaced with two layers of Compositex.

"they haven't made any C&Cs in a long time..."  I mean, I know Tartan was
making them but, are they not still C&Cs if built under that name?  With
that reasoning, the new plant isn't making C&Cs either, right?  I have to
say, of all the boat representatives we spoke to, That guy gets biggest

I'd have loved to have seen one of the C&C/Tartan 115s but there were none

The rain did not keep the crowds away.  The vendors I spoke to were happy
with the traffic yesterday and today.  

 

I should be around Monday.  I'm only about 10 minutes away (plus time to

Don't expect to board any boats either, though I love the atmosphere and
seeing the different designs. 
I study all the neat details of the better designs for runners, backstays,
folding footbraces, cockpit stuff, and I'll be shopping for a few parts as
well.   
I may stay late and enjoy a pain killer and watch the take down after the

I spent a couple hours at a very soggy boat show today.  There was no sign
of the C&C guys, and they were not listed as exhibitors.  The C&C 101 is now
the Tartan 101.

 

Sailing anarchy has a drawing of a new C&C 30 racer on its home page.  Looks
like they are going after the Farr 30 crowd.  

 

Bought some Garhauer clutches, a winch handle, bag and various other stuff.
Talked to the Harken guys about my traveler.  They said they still sell all
the bearings and shackles for the old cars.  (The new cars don't fit.)  They
also have some old cars kicking around.

 

Didn't board a single boat.

Re: Stus-List Landfall 38 - cruising & showering

2014-02-24 Thread Joe Della Barba
There is always thedock shower.

We pulled into Solomon’s on a VERY hot and windless day about noon. We were hot 
and stinky, so we grabbed some shampoo and shaving gear and proceeded to shower 
off on the dock with a hose in our bathing suites. We noticed a window with 
Mylar reflective film right next to the dock that made a handy shaving mirror. 
Cool :) 

So clean and shaved, we hit the town. Later on we got hungry and walked into a 
restaurant for lunch. That faced our slip. That had Mylar sunshades to keep the 
temp down. That had tables right next to the windows. We turned around and ate 
elsewhere

Re: Stus-List Exhaust Riser Replacement

2014-03-01 Thread Joe Della Barba
At my Home Depot the black iron is next to the galvanizes pipe and is about the 
same price.

I can tell you galvanized pipe DOES stink up the boat with an A4. Been There 
Done That. I also would not want to be eating any food from the oven you used 
for your paint curing experiment! I am not even sure what the paint is going to 
do. The pipe gets wrapped in header-wrap on the outside and should not corrode 
from outside-in unless you have some kind of water leak spraying it. I can’t 
imagine the paint will stay in place on the inside. Could be wrong about that.

I really do appreciate the sense of adventure and discovery in trying out new 
things for the boat.

 

But sometimes the tried and true alternatives are still a good choice.

 

A few years ago, a buddy and I helped an old guy at my club recondition and 
sell a Pearson 30 he was getting too old to sail by himself. Among other 
projects, we rebuilt the carb on the A4, installed a transistor ignition in 
place of the points, and rebuilt the exhaust system.

 

The black iron pipe that was OEM on the A4 had lasted about 30 years, about 12 
in salt water in LIS and 18 here in the brackish water in the Carolinas. Black 
iron was a little harder to find than galvanized pipe, but worth the investment 
in a couple of phone calls and turned out to be about the same cost.

An update to my continued contrarian way...

 

I've painted the galvanized pieces (3 coats, inside and out) with some space 
age, high-temperature paint. It's used on re-entry vehicles.  :-)

 

http://www.vhtpaint.com/products/flameproof/

 

There's a curing process involved; 

30 minutes @ 250F, 

30 minute cool off, 

30 minutes @ 450F, 

30 minute cool off, 

and finally, 

30 minutes @ 600F. 

 

I've completed the first two heats. My oven only goes to 550F. (Kinda like my 
amp only goes to 11/2, not 12/2.) Tomorrow morning I'll turn on the broiler, 
move the oven rack to the top and bake everything again for 30 minutes. I don't 
want to blow up my kitchen at night. The first two bakes stunk it up.  

 

So yes, my cheapitude has lead to new experiences.

 

I've researched the galvanized/zinc flu warning and concluded that A4 exhaust 
temperatures are below what's needed to create zinc oxide fumes. (That's a 
welding/cutting thing.) Besides, in this case the zinc will be sealed by coats 
of high-temp paint.

 

So, I'm going forward with my cheapo exhaust riser replacement and will report 
back at 5 year intervals.

I was in the marine electrical business for some years and about 95% of the
time we used duplex wire. The extra layer of insulation certainly adds to
safety instead of being less safe.

The original wiring job on my 1973 35 was - barely - adequate for fresh
water use in 1973 and about 90% of it has long since dissolved into black
copper dust and been replaced.

Kinda like older cars, it depends on how long you plan to hold on to it.  2

10 or 20 probably.  Besides, could you afford or justify a NEW boat?  If
not, then you are still just getting a used boat and someone else's
problems.  Buying used is almost always a compromise between value and

I totally agree. I would really hesitate to own an old boat with no active
support community. Fixing anything unusual would be 50 times harder. It also
holds true for the Atomic 4. Moyer Marine and Indigo do such a great job
supporting these engines they are easier to maintain now than when they were
new. Moyer also runs a forum that provides excellent A4 advice. Given the
lack of marine mechanics that care to do a good job or any job on these,
this is a good thing.

I'd think twice about removing injectors to pour any sort of liquid into the 
combustion chambers. 

Diesels ignite by high compression. They achieve this by having very little 
clearance between piston and cylinder head. Oil is virtually incompressible so 
you run a real risk of a hydraulic lock or worse a bent connecting rod.

A thought on Josh's 3HM35F engine issues 

 

My "new to me" boat had been on the hard for years (4+, at least), and required 
a emptying and cleaning of the fuel tank, new filters, and a rebuild of the 
injection pump just to get my YANMAR 4JH-TE started. It seemed to run fine, and 
we ran it for many hours at various speeds dockside, then changed the oil and 
filter again.

 

Still more smoke than I would like in the exhaust. In any case, pressed for 
time, I set out for return to Virginia from Gulf Coast, Florida. In the first 8 
hours of running time, used more than 1/2 quart of oil, then something changed. 
Less smoke in the exhaust, much more power, smoother idle. 

 

>From that point on used no more oil on the whole trip up to Virginia. At least

I suspect my engine had stuck rings, and that the combination of running it and 
fresh oil "unstuck" them. Perhaps this applies to Josh's engine, as well, 
although I'm not sure how he can run it if it won't start. According to my 
diesel mechanic, the engine should start and run with the compression he has, 
just won't produce much power, and may smoke. I'm thinking his

If the boat has the Atomic 4 engine with raw water cooling, I would not

Subject: Stus-List C&C 35-2 questions

 

Hello all,  need some advice please.

 

There's a 35-2 for sale that I'll be looking at this week. The boat seems to
be a "base" model without many options; no teak holly sole, no hot pressure
water (does have "cold water system"), no genoa tracks.

So my questions are:

1) Can anyone give a ballpark idea of how much it would cost to have hot
pressure water added (by a yard shop, since I don't have the knowledge/tools
etc to tackle such a job)?  Is resale value of this boat diminished much by
not having hot pressure water/shower?

Is the resale value and desirability of this model increased very much by
adding  the hot pressure water/shower feature?

 

2) Is there any indication on the deck or inside the liner of the proper
factory mounting location for genoa tracks, which I would add? I've seen a
boat of a different brand that doesn't have the tracks, but you can see the
"pre-molded" location in the deck, and there are access panels in the cabin
to reach the mounting bolts from underneath without having to cut holes in
the liner.  Does the C&C 35-2 have any similar indicators of the genoa track
location?

 

A week or so ago some folks were commenting on the value of this forum and
the contributions of the members, especially as it relates to the enhanced
value and desirability of C&Cs.  As a prospective C&C owner, I can affirm
that sentiment wholeheartedly. I've been on the hunt for my first "full
sized" sailboat for a couple of years, and subscribing to this forum has
greatly contributed to my sailboat education, and to the process of figuring
out what would be the "right boat" for me. Of the makes of boats that I've
considered, imo the C&C forum is by far the most active and educational
source to help a prospective owner navigate the variables of sailboat
buying.  This forum offers great reassurance to a newcomer like myself  that
there is knowledgeable advice available when issues inevitably come up
related to ownership and maintenance. Thanks again to everyone for their
advice and assistance.

Hi Fred

 of cause, basic idea is to use only an auto-tuner ... but, if you look at
the possibilities, on 7 MHZ ( 40m band) there will be no chance for any
auto-tuner to match the aft stay (on the C&C 34 with 12.7m isolated aft stay
length, other length of cause may be possible). 
 To illustrate the problem i.e. 80m band (3,5-3,8 Mhz) ... aft stay
isolated, far field pattern: max. -0.7 dBi, losses in the antenna tuner app.
50%, 30° vertical angle. Aft stay connected to the whole rigging the far
field: max 3.93 dBi; losses in the antenna tuner 2%, with a vertical angle
of 60°, which means nearly an optimum for long distance connections.

 Main problem for HF connections on a sailing boat is, during sailing I have
only app. 12.5V meaning something about 60W output, but 15A. Ok, I can use
an Amplifier to increase output, say to 300 W or something, no problem, but
in this case I would use app. 60A or something like that. For sailing
conditions inacceptable. Result in my point of view is, to optimize the
antenna. If I`m able to send out really with 60 W and have only 2% losses,
than everything is fine. With 100W output I had contact to stations up to
3000 sm away, on sea, with salt water enviroment 60W should doing same due
to much better ground conditions. 

 For the relay in the circurit, no, it`s not really a big thing. Looking to
what`s going on on this point, only 0.6V and 2A (on 80m band with 100W, the
others I have to check, but I do not expect really high voltage or current),
so a 12 V rellay with 16A should do this job easily.

don't isolate at the top (using the mast and the rest of the stays/shrouds
as antennas); and depending on your transmit power, you'd need quite a large
relay to switch the mast/rigging in or out of the circuit anyway. 

Are you using an antenna tuner between the radio and the antenna?  Most SSB

Hi Joe

 thank`s for the input. The MFJ-4416B seems to be a really good idea to
solve the voltage problem.

I`m using a LDG tuner, a little bit modified, but in general something like
the SGC.
 For your 10m problem ... the problem is that on an antenna you have voltage
and current waves and the length of the antenna will effect the
possibilities of the waves on the antenna, the point of load to the antenna
will be effected by the current and voltage wave and will have, to try to
explain it simpel, the result of different resistance simple to say R[Ohm]=
U [V] /I [A]. Due to the fact that every different wave length on an antenna
will have different wave forms of U and I on the antenna, you might have the
problem to have too high restistance (depending on the tuner, most of them
have a max resistance of 600-850 Ohms which they are able to match) or, too
low restistance, I don`t know any tuner able to match under 5 Ohms.  For
your situation with the 10m band the only solution is to make the antenna
longer or shorter or to try to move the point of load on the antenna to get
into a situation either to reduce the resistance or to make the resistance
higher as let`s say 5 Ohms.
 It`s not a problem to measure this. I`m using a "noise bridge" to figure
out what`s going on. Very simple to use, the bridge will be coupled between
receiver and antenna, the interesting frequency will be fixed at the
receiver and than the potentiometer (maybe also a variable capacitor) will
be used at the bridge to find the minimum point of noise in the receiver.
Knowing the resistance of the potentiometer and knowing the capacity of the
capacitor will give you the exact reactive part of impedance and the real
restistance.

 In case of my antenna in the 40m band or exactly to say at 7.02 Mhz the
resistance is nearly 0 [Ohm] and no chance to match this. Only possibilitie
is to change the antenna to leave the situation of extremly low resistance
in the bands to transmitt. That`s why I`ve got the idea to make the antenna
longer and to make a bridge with a relay at the upper insulator. 
 What I saw by running the NEC software was a very interesing effect. At 80m
the result only with insulated antenna was -.7 dBi as max output, with the
whole rig 3,93 dBi. On 40m band, impossible due low resistance at insulated
antenna, 16.7 dBi at whole rigg in max. At 20m band, insulated 14.2 dBi max
but only 1.2 dBi for whole rigg. 15m band nearly same procedure 8.96 dBi
insulated and 1.5 dBi whole rigg. 10m band 8.92 dBi insulated and 12.4 dBi
whole rigg.
 That`s why I have to insulate for 20m and 15m band and to use a relay.
 The high performance of the antenna with a huge ammount of dBi is based on
really directed signals. It`s very interesting to see the effect of the
total rigging and the way of directed signals. For the 80m band it`s a
direction more to aft, 40m band more forward direction, all other bands will
be extremly effected and directed to port and starboard.

Diversion is a 1973 30ft C&C and has not been in the water for 1 year.  Sitting 
on the hard for any length of time is not good for any boat.  She is going to 
take a bit of TLC to get her back to her pristine condition but it won’t take

I have her listed well below the going prices for similar prices.  If anyone is

I re-read the specs. The boat recently has at least $10K of electronics and
at LEAST 10 more in sails and interior and they want 20?

The LF 38 is a very unusual design, great, well proven, fast, IOR style hull
with a cruiser's interior. The result seemed to me to be extremely tight
quarters down below. some people love it, more hated it. I looked at 4 or 5
of them when I was in the market and despite my best efforts, I fell into
the hated it category. I like the interior layout of the original 38 much
better, but it's not ideal either. The buy-it-now price is about $10K less
than the boats I looked at, but none of those have sold so

We just might. My wife LOVES the LF38 layout.
Last one we looked at for $49K, described as a great boat, had:
Leaking fuel tank
Reeked of diesel
Reeked of mold
Hatches leaked
The cabin sides had swollen and split aft of the ports.
It was barely worth scrap value IMHO.

I am still trying to get putting new sails, paint, interior, radar, etc. on
a boat and then selling her for the cost of what you just added.

Joe,

That boat's just down the road from you. You should go take a look. Although
we all know that small on-line photos which can make a rotten old log-canoe
look like like a new AC Cup boat, it is an intriguing sell. And we know too
that older electronics have no currency but still, there's a fair amount of
get-on-and-sail-away stuff associated with it. If I didn't have something
that size already and weren't diametrically across the Bay from it I'd give
it a look.

All,

 

I was very interested reading about going keyless for your
engine's ignition. Certainly makes sense - It's getting the battery switch
on that is the real hurdle for stealing a boat. It's very easy to get to the
back of an engine panel and just connect the wires. 

 

Plus when your boat is as graphics-heavy as the Enterprise, I
doubt anyone could steal her and get very far without being found. 

 

And I've also had my share (and fill) of bent keys and crud
getting into the key slot. 

 

For those who have done it, what did you use as a replacement
toggle or push-button switch? I'm thinking something lighted, low-profile
and water-resistant.

 


  

  All the best,

 

  Edd

Live-aboards and homeless people finding an abandoned boat on the hard are not 
the exact same thing. Also note that while 99% of cruisers are great people, 
when I had a marine business well over 90% of the theft losses for the entire 
YEAR were in October. For those that don’t know, all the southbound cruisers 
are in the Bay in October waiting for the insurance deadline to head south.

Usually insurance holds everyone in the Bay until around the end of October

Re: Stus-List Heaving-to

2012-11-12 Thread Joe Della Barba
My boat heaves to quite well under main and jib. All I have to do is tack,
not release the jib sheet, let the sail back on the new tack, and then turn
the boat hard to windward.
It is quite useful to "park" for a bit, but not much used anymore as a storm
survival tactic. If you can still do that, you can likely sail someplace
too.

I agree with Dwight.  You should be able to heave to with any headsail,
because conditions may require it.

That said, I prefer not to have my headsail backing against the spreaders,
so I prefer rolling up to no more than a 110 or so before heaving to.

Re: Stus-List Heaving-to

2012-11-12 Thread Joe Della Barba
That is kind of what I meant - maybe I worded it wrong.
When we had 50 knots coming home from Bermuda, we had 5 on board and decided
to push for top speed. We got about 170 miles the first non-to-noon and 180
the next.
Heaving-to would have been a nice way to get some rest if needed, but we
could survive either way. I think a true "survival storm" would be too much
for my fin-keel boat to heave to in.
YMMV and all........

Joe, heaving to is very much in use as a storm/survival tactic. I've more
than once sat out 50-knot winds halfway between Bermuda and New England
while hove to. The contrast between trying to make way in that stuff and
sitting under the dodger with a cup of tea while hove to is remarkable. And
it gives you time to enjoy some alpine scenery, too!

Re: Stus-List Transitioning from Racing to Cruising?

2012-12-17 Thread Joe Della Barba
I did this a long time ago. The day has passed when a boat can be kept in
competitive racing trim and go cruising in comfort. When I was a kid,
Coquina could literally come back from a 2 week cruise on Friday night and
be on the line Saturday morning and win silver.
Now...not so much.
So I race on other boats when the urge strikes and Coquina is a second home
for us. This is not to say I don't like to sail fast, but trying to get all
the kids toys, blow-dryers, etc etc off and the racing sails on is too much
of a PITA for us.

BTW - One of the things that has changed is the family atmosphere around
racing. I basically grew up racing and from age 7 on there were kids my age
on the other boats. That has changed for the most part.
BUT WAIT! 
The Corsica River Yacht Club (my club wink wink) has a great annual regatta
with kids all over the place, beer, food, a band, and a great facility with
two beaches. For one designs we race around the river and the "big boats"
come over from Baltimore Light. We are looking to include a "Good Old Boat"
class this year for the older casual racers along with the standard PHRF
class. This race is great if you want to actually GO SOMEPLACE instead of
going back and forth doing W/Ls. I am the PRO for this and hope to get some
of you out for it.

2020-09-17 Thread Joe Della Barba
I agree, get yourself a nice Beta 37 ½ HP diesel, and a 3 blade flex-a 
– fold. I replaced a 4-108 with one of those Kubota’s, the mounting 
was about  2 inches narrower, I just had to get some 3” aluminum (or 
maybe 4”) angle to replace the old steel angle.  You will be amazed at 
how much lighter it is from the Perkins.


An old slip neighbor also had a 39, he replaced his atomic with a 30 
HP Yanmar, and was disappointed with the loss in power.  But it will 
still get you from A to B.


Bill Coleman



 An Atomic 4 puits out 30 HP at 3600 RPM, so  unless the original 
install had the A4 with the reduction gear, something is very wrong 
with the Yanmar if it cannot equal the A4. Most A4 powered boats with 
direct drive are maxing out at maybe 22-24 HP.

Stus-List Re: Alternator / Inverter / Air Conditioning

2020-09-19 Thread Joe Della Barba
That would be a marginal operation at best. The most benign thing that 
would go wrong would be the inverter overheating and shutting down. If 
that doesn't happen, running an alternator that hard for hours on end is 
pretty tough duty, I would not be surprised if the alternator died an 
early death.


The worst case scenario is trying to run the AC at anchor. Long ago I 
dealt with a company that was selling 3 KW AC generators that belted off 
the main engine. End result was people running their engines all night 
to run the AC and carbon fouling them to death.

Listers,

As some of you already know, we installed air conditioning on the 
Enterprise a couple of months ago. We are currently at the dock on 
Captiva Island and the cabin is a glorious 75 degrees.  According to 
the installer, at startup and maximum compression, the air 
conditioning on the boat will draw 1400 Watts.


Years ago, when I repowered the boat with a new Beta 30 engine, I 
added a 120A alternator and a 2000W inverter, mostly so my wife can 
use her hairdryer when under way.


My AC panel is switchable between Shore Power and the Inverter’ power.

So here’s the question: Do you think it’s possible to actually run the 
air conditioning with the engine running? The math seems to work, but 
I am hesitant to give it a try.


And, if it doesn’t work, what would actually happen? Are we talking a 
tripped breaker or something bad like alternator issues.

Clueless in Captiva.

2020-09-19 Thread Joe Della Barba
Underway is actually better for the engine. My alternator regulator will 
back off charging if the alternator overheats. Does yours do that? I 
would say go ahead and give it a try and see what happens, but the 
potential for damaging the alternator does exist. If you don't have 
temperature sensing you might get an IR thermometer to check on the 
alternator.


The other way to do this is belt an air conditioner compressor off the 
engine like a car.

Joe,

Thanks. I wasn’t looking to run all night at anchor. I was only 
thinking if we were moving under power with little to no breeze behind 
us, if it were possible to cool down the cabin a little, or at least 
get some relief standing in front of a vent for a short time.


All the best,

Edd

That would be a marginal operation at best. The most benign thing that 
would go wrong would be the inverter overheating and shutting down. If 
that doesn't happen, running an alternator that hard for hours on end 
is pretty tough duty, I would not be surprised if the alternator died 
an early death.


The worst case scenario is trying to run the AC at anchor. Long ago I 
dealt with a company that was selling 3 KW AC generators that belted 
off the main engine. End result was people running their engines all 
night to run the AC and carbon fouling them to death.

Listers,

As some of you already know, we installed air conditioning on the 
Enterprise a couple of months ago. We are currently at the dock on 
Captiva Island and the cabin is a glorious 75 degrees.  According to 
the installer, at startup and maximum compression, the air 
conditioning on the boat will draw 1400 Watts.


Years ago, when I repowered the boat with a new Beta 30 engine, I 
added a 120A alternator and a 2000W inverter, mostly so my wife can 
use her hairdryer when under way.


My AC panel is switchable between Shore Power and the Inverter’ power.

So here’s the question: Do you think it’s possible to actually run 
the air conditioning with the engine running? The math seems to work, 
but I am hesitant to give it a try.


And, if it doesn’t work, what would actually happen? Are we talking a 
tripped breaker or something bad like alternator issues.


Signed,

Clueless in Captiva.

All the best,

Edd

Before you go try it, check your engine manual to see if you have a time 
limited power settings. METO in airplanes is usually something like 5 
minutes, my Atomic 4 can go 100% forever, and I have seen notes with 
something like a 1 hour limit for redline RPM on some Yanmars.

Stus-List cheap hatch leak fix

2020-09-28 Thread Joe Della Barba
My 47 year old original hatches will sometimes leak around the screws. I 
have been sealing them with Creeping Crack Cure to good effect, but one 
corner of one hatch just would not quit dripping. I just happened to 
have some Liquid Rubber for electrical connections sitting around and 
had an idea. I painted a thin line on the leaky corner and problem 
solved! It doesn't even look too horrible on the black hatch frame. I am 
not sure I would do this on a new-ish hatch, but if yours are due for 
new glass anyway this seems to be a decent stop-gap.

Re: Stus-List java updates

2014-05-18 Thread Joe Della Barba via CnC-List
My son's laptop dual boots to Windows 7 and Linux Mint. The various Linux
installers will see Windows already there and ask if you want to do a
dual-boot install. Adobe has Linux versions of their software and Mint comes
with LibreOffice. LibreOffice can be set to save in Microsoft Office formats
if desired> my son's school uses the latest Microsoft Office that uses .DOCX
format and our old Office didn't deal with it very well, so I loaded up the
LibreOffice version for Windows for free that works just fine for the
Windows machine :)

See
http://www.forbes.com/sites/robertbowman/2014/05/12/windows-xp-is-extinct-so
-why-are-so-many-companies-still-on-it/ for XP security issues.

 

As for Ubuntu vs. Mint, under the hood they are pretty much the same. I like
Mint because if I give to someone used to Windows the menus are close enough
that they don't need much, if any, help with it. Only tricky thing I have
found in the various Linux platforms is setting up printers isn't always
obvious.

If I install any Linux based OS is that equivalent to reformatting the hard

access applications in the Windows XP partition with it?  I have lots of

versions and Ubuntu?

 

I do important things like banking on my ipad or iphone using iOS7 but I do
most email and surfing on my XP machine. I like a full size QWERTY keypad

Is anyone aware of any reports of people getting hacked because they are
still using Windows XP?  I know quite a few internet users who are still
running on Windows XP and personally I have not heard of any issues yet.  I
update my anti virus software regularly and that software tells me that I am
protected and I do full systems scans every day, does that help at all?

Re: Stus-List Distance to maneuver to exit and enter slip

2014-06-06 Thread Joe Della Barba via CnC-List

My new spot has about 300% at least, but my old slip was maybe 150% at best,
Normally it was no issue, but I had to go north to get out and if the wind
was heavy from the south it could be a little tricky.
As for small powerboats, the ones I have had actually didn't steer all that
well at idle speed and in neutral they barely steered at all. The I/O or
outboard makes a poor rudder.

Re: Stus-List getting seasick

2014-06-24 Thread Joe Della Barba via CnC-List
I have had flight students use electric wrist band to good effect. Most seasick 
drugs not approved for flight. One of my dogs got very sick first time out and 
threw up on my wife :(  
I taught her to look at the horizon and she is never sick again. You could see 
her tail go when I pointed where to look "thanks master this is a relief".

Subject: Stus-List Signet SL 172 Depth Gauge

My Coastal Navigator DDS 200 depth gauge which is no longer in business
seems to have retired itself.  I'm thinking the instrument itself has gone
bad, not the transducer.  We just had the boat out of the water in April for
fresh bottom paint, so I really don't want to pull her out again to replace
the transducer.  I'm hoping the existing transducer will work with a new
depth gauge instrument such as a Signet SL172 depth gauge.  I talked to
Signet and they believe it should work, as most transducers operate on 200
kHz.  
Just wondering if anyone has had any experience with replacing their depth
gauge using the existing transducer, what kind did you use, and did it work
ok?  I'm thinking about the Signet Gauge to match the existing knot log,
wind speed, and apparent wind indicator, which are all Signet.  Any
suggestions?

Thanks,

Compare the following prices:

New main and job for the 30 and the 42. The 42 sails are going to be at least 
double if not triple.

Replacement engine for the 30 and 42. The A4 that most 30s have can be replaced 
with a used one for $2K or so and a Moyer rebuild is about $6K. I would think 
the 42 isn’t going for less than $15K.

Big boat, big systems.  Electric pumps, electric shower sump, big expensive 
lines and sails, increased dockage, propane gas systems and solenoids, etc.  
lots of expensive stuff to break and replace. 

 

Small boat, good feel for the water. Fun to sail. Easy to dock. Easy to

Big boat (even a C&C), less feel for the water, harder to dock.  May or may not

I am a single 31 year old guy, but I have been thinking a 35-45 footer may have

The alternator belt was somewhat loose but I tightened it and no luck on

and after tightening... About 35 volts. 

About to start this morning by checking / cleaning battery terminals and other

Re: Stus-List Fleebay Scores

2014-07-11 Thread Joe Della Barba via CnC-List
The VERY best scores for sailors are - of course - dumpster scores :)

I found two excellent winch handles on top of the dumpster in Annapolis. A
little WD-40 freed up the plastic handle part and they are good as new. 

Next to the Rock Hall dumpster I got a 4 foot antenna extension that looked
new.

Next to my marina dumpster I got a really nice metal safety 5 gallon gas can
NEVER BEEN USED. It was dry and had no gas smell at all inside of it.

I got a starting battery from our recycle pile that was made in 1990, thrown
on the pile in 1993, and worked fine until about 2001. Gel cells last a long
time :)

I would not normally look inside a dumpster, but I did fish out a large
Bimini top made out of dark blue Sunbrella that still had the new cloth
smell. I have no idea why anyone would throw this away. WTF?? It looks
like it was never even put up once and it is huge.

Usually, I find the stuff that's perfect, priced right, and ready to go when
I'm least prepared to spend the dough,,,

Amazon is great too, so is Craigslist, etc.  I also have a list of  web
sites and addresses specialized in used boating / sailing equipment if
anyone is interested. 

And oh.., Don't forget marina flee markets and swap meets.  I made out like
a bandit last year picking up (Among other things) a very lightly used

7 foot draft would make the boat totally useless to me. 6 feet would be 
marginal at best.

I knew someone with a deep draft 40 and they chain-sawed the bottom of the keel 
off and bolted on a bulb from Mars Metal to bring the weight back to spec. At 
least back then the cost of doing this was well made up by the increased value 
of the boat for the Chesapeake and Mars would give you some credit if you sent

On the first one, the hailing port is interesting, as the boat is now in 
Maryland. The engine is small and has a lot of hours (almost 2000?), no self 
tailing winches, old (really) Moor instruments (if it breaks, buy new).

 

The other one looks better, is a lot more money for an old boat - and seven

This looks like a nice MK II and has been for sale for a long time.
My guess is the sticking point is the engine. It has a Westebeke 4-60 engine, 
which is a 15 HP diesel derived from a 984 cc MG Midget engine. I had an MG 
Midget and all I have to say to that is Yikes! It may run fine, but AFAIK parts 
are nonexistent for it, so when it breaks it is dead forever. Also 15 HP is not 
exactly overpowered for a 35 foot boat.

 

http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1979/C%26C-40-2647391/Branford/CT/United-States

 

The boat sounds and looks decent in the ad. Only things I can see is apparently 
there is no canvas and the 7 foot draft. That boat would be trapped in my slip 
except at high tide.

FWIW, I notice deeper water exists on the Western Shore of the Chesapeake, 
while shallower waters are on the Eastern Shore.  A keel a foot deeper can 
lighten a 35ft boat by 1000 pounds which plays a bigger role in lighter winds, 
when racing.  Light displacement is not so important where it's windy or if 
you're motoring to gunkhole destinations more than sailing.  

 

A deep fin protects the rudder, is shorter and thinner, and when you run 
aground, you slimply motor back out or spin her off.  The old Navy Luders Yawls 
drew 8ft.  The newer Navy 44 by Pedrick draw 7.25'.  There are a few TP52s at 
Bert Jabin's yard that draw 10 or 12ft.  Just sayin.

with few issues for low money. Maybe he didn't want to have another project? 

 

On the first one, the hailing port is interesting, as the boat is now in 
Maryland. The engine is small and has a lot of hours (almost 2000?), no self 
tailing winches, old (really) Moor instruments (if it breaks, buy new).

 

The other one looks better, is a lot more money for an old boat - and seven 
feet is a non-starter around here.

This looks like a nice MK II and has been for sale for a long time.
My guess is the sticking point is the engine. It has a Westebeke 4-60 engine, 
which is a 15 HP diesel derived from a 984 cc MG Midget engine. I had an MG 
Midget and all I have to say to that is Yikes! It may run fine, but AFAIK parts 
are nonexistent for it, so when it breaks it is dead forever. Also 15 HP is not 
exactly overpowered for a 35 foot b

Coquina was not purchased because we needed the shallow draft, she was 
purchased because the previous owners moved to Barnaget Bay and had only about 
4 feet at their dock. They bought a centerboard C&C, a Corvette IIRC. Coquina 
spent 12 years on the Magothy and then another 12 on the Severn before coming 
to the Shore. Your boat would be able to use our marina about 2/3s of the time 
this year. I think anything except right at low tide would work. Some years 
when the dredging is late we cannot get out at normal low tide. This year it 
has to be a NorthWester to be too shallow. This year I can use Kent Narrows 
again. Last year anything over 4 feet was very risky.

OTOH 9 feet would be fine at my mooring, but that is a half hour drive upstream 
and then 12 miles back downstream to get back out.

I agree Joe.  

That's why Magothy is heaven for my me and our 6'3" draft, most places 12 to 18 
ft and from my perspective, my boat is fine, your side of the bay is too 
shallow for us.  Can't change that.  I respect your choice but prefer mine for 
me and not trying to convince anyone to change theirs.  It's good they make

FWIW, I notice deeper water exists on the Western Shore of the Chesapeake, 
while shallower waters are on the Eastern Shore.  A keel a foot deeper can 
lighten a 35ft boat by 1000 pounds which plays a bigger role in lighter winds, 
when racing.  Light displacement is not so important where it's windy or if 
you're motoring to gunkhole destinations more than sailing.  

 

A deep fin protects the rudder, is shorter and thinner, and when you run 
aground, you slimply motor back out or spin her off.  The old Navy Luders Yawls 
drew 8ft.  The newer Navy 44 by Pedrick draw 7.25'.  There are a few TP52s at 
Bert Jabin's yard that draw 10 or 12ft.  Just sayin.

7 foot draft would make the boat totally useless to me. 6 feet would be 
marginal at best.

I knew someone with a deep draft 40 and they chain-sawed the bottom of the keel 
off and bolted on a bulb from Mars Metal to bring the weight back to spec. At 
least back then the cost of doing this was well made up by the increased value 
of the boat for the Chesapeake and Mars would give you some credit if you sent 
them the lead you removed.

Steve,

 

As much as I love my 35/3, the 40 is a lot more boat for less money!  I would 
not let another 6 inches of draft stop me unless I planned to cruise the 
Bahamas.

My crew seems more focused on anchoring out, swims, kayaking, and sightseeing

We will explore more as we get used to this new to us way of cruising.

Re: Stus-List binnacle light

You need to fix the light. An external light will have all kinds of 
reflections. The wire is prone to chafe on the steering cables and where it 
goes into the compass. It is pretty much a trace it back to the start from the 
compass end and see what the problem is operation. Dumb question – did you 
measure the voltage or is there a chance the bulb died?

There is no power to my binnacle light.  I've tried every breaker and switch.  
No luck.

 I can either trace the wiring back to the breaker or put a red LED in the

Suggestions?

Re: Stus-List what is wrong with these boats? (now: Keel draft...)

2014-07-12 Thread Joe Della Barba via CnC-List
Some of it is a chicken-and-egg thing. The last time we had a boat that drew 
less than 5 feet was around 1973, so I have very little memory of anchoring in 
places 4 feet deep. If you always had a 7 foot draft boat then you never went 
anyplace 6 feet deep. If you change from shallow to deep then you suddenly 
can’t go places that you are used to going.
