Re: Stus-List Current C&C History

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.

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.

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.

The 35 MK I is pretty easy to sail singlehanded. You can reach the jib sheets from the helm and let the traveler down the track from the helm.

Re: Stus-List 34R hull
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.

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.

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.)

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.

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.

Re: Stus-List HAM radio on board
I use insulators in my backstay and an SGC auto-tuner. So far it has matched every frequency I have tried it on, which would be every ham and marine band between 1.8 and 30 MHz. This definitely includes 40 meters. The only tricky area seems to be 10 meters. I can get a better tune some days by tuning at 26 MHz and locking the tuner and then going to 10 meters. Not sure exactly why?? I haven't tried it myself, but I have heard of people only using the bottom insulator on the backstay and letting the tuner load the whole rig with ground strap run the tuner to the base of the mast.

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. best regards Peter Am 11.01.2013 23:19, schrieb Frederick G Street: Peter -- on this side of the pond, it's common to use a completely-isolated backstay for the antenna. I'd be concerned about getting RF burns if you 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.

Up to now I made two setups of antennas, one separate on the stern with max 8m long wire in a glasfibre tube, app. 10° showing aft from the vertical. I`m not very pleased to have such antenna, much to complicated for mooring etc. Also it seems that this antenna will not work without a huge ammount of losses even if matched by an antenna tuner. The other possibility is to use the aft stay. It`s isolated, so in general no problem. But, it`s funny ... isolated no chance to match it on 40m band, 80m is possible but not really good. 20,15 and 10m are working. Than I`ve tried to use the aft stay without an isolation in the top. Result was interesting. 80m working good, 40m perfect, 20 and 15m do not work, 10m excellent. That the 10m is working coupled to the whole rigg is realy surprising me. My idea is now to place a relais in the top to have a circurit with the rigg or to isolate the aft stay. Of cause, under all circumstances I have to match the antenna with an automatic tuner, but I want to reduce losses in the tuner as much as possible. Perhaps someone has his/her own experience and can give me some advi

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. best regards Peter Am 12.01.2013 14:25, schrieb Joe Della Barba: I use insulators in my backstay and an SGC auto-tuner. So far it has matched every frequency I have tried it on, which would be every ham and marine band between 1.8 and 30 MHz. This definitely includes 40 meters. The only tricky area seems to be 10 meters. I can get a better tune some days by tuning at 26 MHz and locking the tuner and then going to 10 meters. Not sure exactly why?? I haven't tried it myself, but I have heard of people only using the bottom insulator on the backstay and letting the tuner load the whole rig with ground strap run the tuner to the base of the mast.

Re: Stus-List Heaving-to
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........

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.

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. Joe Coquina ___ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions. Each and every one is greatly appreciated.

That would be a marginal operation at best. The most benign thing that would go wrong would be the inverter overheating and shutting down.

Stus-List Re: Alternator / Inverter / Air Conditioning
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.

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
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
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.

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

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?

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.

Re: Stus-List Fleebay Scores
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.

Re: Stus-List what is wrong with these boats?

Re: Stus-List Shallows and deep draft
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.

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