Re: Stus-List Cool change and Oregon Offshore Race

2014-05-11 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Well Frank's predictions of conditions were more or less right on. I crewed
on Gary Bruner's Yankee 30 and it was challenging. We raced conservatively
And three of us helmed in short stints. The seas were confused and good
sized. Keeping the boat tracking was quite a physical affair because of the
Yankee's smallish wheel.

I can't count the number of blown chutes throughout the fleets. We are
packing a Mumm 36 chute home with us so they may get it fixed and back in
time for Swiftsure. There is going to be a lot of work for sail makers in
the pacific northwest these next two weeks!

Looking forward to more war stories from other sailors at the Royal Vic
this afternoon.

I reiterate the wisdom Frank exercised in staying in. It was a somewhat
wild ride.

Yes they did and they are doing the Trans-Pac double handed.

The third place finisher was another Santa Cruz 27 "Kokopelli". Koko's race
included a trip up the mast by one of their woman crew members to free a
wrapped chute. I can assure you, this would not have been high on my list
things to do when I was out there!

Stus-List Interior Wood Conditioning?

2014-05-18 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I was hoping to tap the collective wisdom for suggestions on conditioning
matte finish interior bulk heads, cabinets, etc. I am hoping for a "rub it
on and done" solution. It doesn't need to last forever as long as it
doesn't take forever.
I have been using Murphy's oil soap disposable cleaning wipes, which are
great, but are a bit too far on the cleanser end of the spectrum. I like
the fact that I can leave a pack under the sink and use them at will
however. If there were something similar but better, that would be great.

Thanks,
Kevin

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

2014-06-05 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
We have our 30mkII in a 28' slip and a 35' (max) fairway. We have a bit of
Columbia River Current and some wind from time to time. I haven't had any
issues, but we are on our boat all the time and our C&C (as most) will turn
on a dime. That said, when I make the turn my stern is within inches of the
finger/boat directly across from me and I punch a touch of reverse last
minute to keep the bow off the deck locker once we are lined up.

I don't think its a big deal, but a captain in a gazillion pound, shippy
full keeler might suggest otherwise.

Stus-List Yanmar 2GM20 Starter Not Starting / Engaging

2014-06-27 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Hi Everybody,



My starter is beginning to misbehave a bit. Looking for help diagnosing
issue.



*Symptom: *Occasionally (with more frequency now) I will press the starter
button on my Yanmar 2GM20 and nothing happens. No, turning over, etc. Just
crickets. Then I take my finger off and try it again and it starts to turn
over fine. Occasionally I have to press twice before it will start to
engage.



Any ideas? When this happened on my classic BMW motorcycle, it was my
starter relay. Could it be the same on my Yanmar? Whatever it is it seems
electrical rather than mechanical.



Thanks!

Stus-List Charging problems 30-2 Yanmar 2 gm 20

2014-07-05 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
On our anniversary sail up to Victoria, we pulled in to Gray's harbour, Wa
last night because the batteries are not charging. Looking for suggestions
of diagnosis / solutions. See below: thanks

The alternator belt was somewhat loose but I tightened it and no luck on
charging. Tested terminals on back of alternator and reading was same
before and after tightening... About 35 volts.

About to start this morning by checking / cleaning battery terminals and
other connections from alternator back. Hoping this could be the issue
because as I previously posted my starter has been giving me the clicks. I
have the faint glow on the Charging indicator lamp at the engine panel too.
I have a heart interface  "incharge " alternator regulator.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks

2014-07-05 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
No but voltage at rear end of the Hitachi alternator read s 35-36 volts
with engine running.

Cleaned and reset all battery connections and seem to be fine. It seems
like staying battery may be getting a charge since it is quite warm to when
engine is on. (2) house batteries are not warm at all. They were also lower
voltage.

However, the batteries come up to voltage when on shore power. Is it fair
to assume batteries are fine then?

After cleaning all the terminals, checking fuses etc. I found that the wire
from the alternator to the external regulator had corroded and fallen off.
I didn't see it at first because it's buried in my tight engine
compartment. Of course in hindsight I might have checked the regulator
earlier. Good thing is that u understand my charging system a whole lot
better and all the connections have been refreshed. I also got my link 20
battery monitor working again.

Had a couple of nice days in Victoria BC and pushing off for Arbutus cove
on discovery island soon. What a beautiful place to cruise...

Stus-List Input on Ipad installations @ Helm

2014-07-25 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I am looking for pics / descriptions of IPad installations at the helm,
including USB/Charging if you have them. No need to get into “chart
plotters are better” discussion. I would probably agree, but the expense is
not justified at moment. Thanks for the input.


Will send pics / blog posts from our recent trip up the Oregon and
Washington Coasts to the Gulf and San Juan Islands as soon as my wife
uploads them. Everything went smoothly except the fog caused some
consternation.



Best,



Kevin

Mike it's a perko latch. I have an extra that I am about to install but I
will get model number for you. My old one I am taking off is serviceable
just stiff. I haven't tried lubing it yet we've had another on osprey so
thought I would use it. I am at the v marina tonight. Will try to remember

Stus-List Re-Bedding / Filling & Drilling w_Epoxy

2014-08-08 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Happy weekend all,



I am going to start re-bedding some hardware on our boat. I’m going with
butyl tape, but wanted to see what folks were using for “filling and
drilling” holes in the deck/core with epoxy, etc. Is *Git Rot* appropriate
for this job? I am looking for something easy to work with for when I have
a spare hour or two, i.e. less mixing/disposing cleanup the better.



Send suggestions and / or links to YouTube videos or other “How To” sites.



Thanks,

Kevin

I've seen some IMOCA 60's (or similar) racing sleds run a vent line up a
lifeline stanchion to top lifeline. Seemed like a decent solution.

Re: Stus-List Changing oil filter Yanmar 3gmf

2015-10-31 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I asked this same question about two years ago and tried both techniques. I
found for myself that stuffing an absorbent pad around the filter was the
best and least messy solution. I tried the bag trick twice but it actually
made more of a mess because you just can't twist the filter very fast with
the bag on, especially once the oil actually gets in the bag and lubricates
the entire outside of the filter.

Just get the pad good and stuffed in at the base of the filter. It's the
best way for me.

Stus-List Volvo Ardic Heater Help

2015-11-03 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
My heater/furnace is working, but runs quite rich. There is very little
info online that I can find. I've opened up the heater, but there was no
apparent way that I saw to dial back the fuel delivery.
Has anybody experience with this heater or can intuit what could be causing
this heater to run rich? Our boat is an 1989 C&C 30mkII. I assume the
heater to be of the same vintage.

Thanks,

Re: Stus-List Venetian parade

2015-12-20 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
We do Christmas ships every year and usually go out about 5 nights per
season. I have a cheapish 500 watt (peak) Stanley inverter wired directly
to one of my house battery's with a flat wire plug and about a 18" lead
with an inline fuse of course. We run all LEDs. On our 30-2 we run lights
up the mast, zipped around the toe rail, and looped around the lifelines.
Total light length is 200'. I haven't added up the accumulated but suspect
I nave room for more. First year I used or cigarette lighter at the nav
station with no issues, but we've added lights and feel better about the
direct connection. Someone can shout me down about the assymetric load on
my house bank of (2) group 27s.

The parade is quite fun for friends and colleagues. Quite a bit of
work/concentration for the skipper and occasionally hard on the boat
depending on the debris load in the river... If you boat on one.
Incidentally, many people used generators when we started. Very few have
them anymore.

Re: Stus-List Source for Sturgeron?

2016-01-14 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I ordered some through canadadrugsonline.com last week to prep my kit for
Pacific Cup in July. 25mg...so I will have to see how it affects me. I've
used Scopalamine patches and they work, but I am not in love with them and
if it's really rough, I still get woozy doing anything below. $29 for the
100ct pills and $10 for shipping. They are sourced from India. I'll have
time to mess around with them and see how they work.

Re: Stus-List Butyl tape

I tried another Butyl brand besides "Bed it" and I regret it. I have since
used "Bed it". You can find it elsewhere than Mainesail and Hamilton, but I
found price to be about the same. I went with Mainsail.

Re: Stus-List Sale alert automatic inflatable harness

2016-02-19 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I bought the one West Marine is selling last year during a similar sale. I
returned it. Problem was the waist belt would not stay tight or in same
position. I would tighten, 5 minutes later it was loose... If I ended up in
the water, it would have immediately ridden up and limited my mobility and
effective flotation. I would pass on this one.

Allen, I will grab a photo and dimensions of our hatch on our 30-2 this
weekend when we are on the boat. Ours isn't a nice looking wood hatch, but
it's the head and behind the door, and waterproof so it works fine for our
needs.

On our 30 mkII we have an 8" screw access port in the port cabin for
access. In the head we have an access hatch for dipstick etc. The hatch is
much more preferable. Something similar to this.

Re: Stus-List masthead sheaves

Just a thought, but why not splice some dyneema to a rope for your halyard?
You could use same sheaves and have a halyard that is lighter, cheaper,
corrosion free, etc. I am hoping to replace the last wire halyard on our
boat like this when I get a chance

Re: Stus-List To foam or not to foam...

2016-03-20 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Not sure how a piece of line would keep a furled sail flat, as it should
be. I see the wisdom of a foam luff. I regularly see furled sailed in highs
winds with a big belly to them, exactly what you don't want cf course. If I
were buying a new sail, I would definitely have  a foam luff or plan on
head sail changes when the wind pipes, which is what we do.

Re: Stus-List jacklines for an LF 38

2015-03-12 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I am sure others will way in, but nylon webbing 6000# breaking strength is
recommended by most racing bodies. Also, the strength will diminish in
proportion to uv exposure, so we stow them when not on the boat. I run them
to bow and stern cleats as others have mentioned since lack of backed pad
eyes capable of resisting a worst case scenario.

We use these 2x retractable tethers which are current with latest safety
best practices:

Re: Stus-List Jacklines on an LF 38

2015-03-16 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Agreed. Inside shrouds sounds like a recipe for more time on deck, clipping
and unclipping at a time when it is best avoided. Being able to quickly
clip on and run forward ( the windward side) to clear a fouled sheet etc,
presents a far lower risk, in my mind, to life and gear than having to move
more slowly and un clipping/reclipping necessitated with a centerline set
up. (even with double tether)

Stantions are not a place for rigging life lines as mentioned.

Do we have any idea about the *hard costs* for running this list? I've
never seen a cost of operation breakdown. (Though it could be buried
somewhere in the "archive") I personally would be more likely to donate if
I knew the cost of this public forum, which is founded on the generosity of

Stus-List Restoring Grip to Winches

Any suggestions for restoring grip to old winches? Mainly I would like to
rejuvenate my Barient 24's to grip my new line better. I am looking for the
cheapest and easiest solution. I am not above adding texture with a dremel
to the drum or the self tailer.

What has been your experience?

Re: Stus-List Wheelpilot ST-4000 bracket...

2015-03-31 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Spencer,

Judging from your email, you do not have the 4000 anymore? I still have
mine and would love to buy any extras you may still have for the 4000. I do
not need the bracket however.

An upgraded pilot would be nice for our boat, but a baby is on the way (in
2 weeks) and I am hoping to upgrade to a 34+/36 in a 3-5 yrs time. So I
want to be conscious about what I sink into our 30-2.

Thanks,
Kevin

Re: Stus-List Headlamps...

2015-04-24 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Had all kinds of headlamps for boating, backpacking etc. By far the most
useful for on the boat at night standing watch and in camp at night is the
Petzl Emergency headlamp. Super light, has red mode, long lasting batteries
and NOT blindingly bright at night. I have had mine for going on 10yrs now
and still works like a charm and I use it a ton. In fact, you will see all
of the volvo guys are using them this year for their night watches, so you
know they will hold up in the Southern Ocean, should you ever bring your
C&C there. http://www.rei.com/product/838548/petzl-elite-headlamp

Now for working on the boat in dark corners we use more traditional lamps.
We have two black diamond head lamps and I would not buy another. The
switches on both are about to give out / finicky and the band doesn't stay
tight etc. The best one I've owned before has been the Tikka XP2 from
Petzl. Unfortunately it was lost, but I will be buying another when the
Black Diamond gives out.

As for Home Depot and Harbor Freight cheepos. Well you get what you pay
for. You will likely be replacing it next season when it breaks. (I shop
both HD and HF, but not for head lamps.)

Our home insurance agent was happy to provide a rider on our boat. Pretty

Re: Stus-List Grey Potable water connectors

2015-05-28 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Tom, replace the Qest fittings with more of the same and go sailing! Save
your money and TIME for a different project IMO.  Your boat is considerably
newer than many on the list and you are bound to have more useful life in
your Qest plumbing system. I just replaced my water heater as well and
ordered new fittings from https://www.plumbingsupply.com/. One thing for
sure I know I'll never see a return on when I sell the boat is replacing a
currently functional plumbing system with similar.

The most accurate method would be to do a "rubbing" with crayon, i.e. like
an elementary school gravestone rubbing, and scanned at full scale. The
gentleman on the list with CAD/CAM capabilities could trace this in Adobe
Illustrator or CAD and used as a base file for CAM. Just remember to get
the depth of the letters measured and thickness of the plate with calipers.

Re: Stus-List 34+ transom thru-hulls

2015-06-14 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Assuming your boat sits on the lines it was designed for, those through
hulls should be just above the waterline and I'd typical for the Rob Ball
designs of late 80s early 90s. It will only be a couple of inches above WL
but they were very smartly designed to remain so (at anchor) and they keep
the transom uncluttered and clean. I consider it a one of the more refined
design moves that separates earlier cncs from the Ball era, my 2 cents.
Sounds like PO could have raised boot and bottom paint, but hard to tell
w/o a picture.

The 34+ seems like a great boat and I hope to have one in the future...

Re: Stus-List Emergency Tiller Bracket Squeaking

2015-06-15 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Jim,  I do have a cover at my emergency tiller stock, but it doesn't keep
the water out. I have not experienced the squeak at the stock so can't
offer advice there. Is it possible to use something a bit heavier than
McLube, but lighter than standard grease. Triflow or similar?

I personally wouldn't want to be looking for pliers hammer etc during a

waves punching holes in the side of the boat with the mast. What ever is
easiest and *fastest* is safest in a dismasting event is best IMO.

Re: Stus-List Bottom paint -ingredient change

2015-07-01 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Anybody dumping Roundup in to their bottom paint and the waters in which we
sail should be taken out to the barn and shot. Dumping a witches brew of
anti biotics into these same waters is similarly ignorant IMO. Complain
about the EPA all you like, but someone needs to take on the unenviable
task of protecting the rest of us and our sailing waters from the ill
informed and questionably intentioned. My 2 cents.

I think any drug like " tetracycline" will kill lots of germs and bacteria
but will dissolve so fast in water, it will be gone in a few days. I
wouldn't add anything to bottom paint for fear of jeopardizing the adhesion
and slow release of it's own toxins. I've heard of people mixing in "Round
Up" and I've heard the same people complain that their paint flaked off
during haulout. I ask them if they sanded with 80 grit paper before
painting as directed, and can tell by their confused expression, they never
read the directions.

I respect the guys who write the application instructions, follow those as
close as I can and I've enjoyed great success.

I understand your frustration with VC-17. I used VC-Offshore for 8 years
and got fed up with the fouling. Had to clean the bottom each week to stay
ahead of it. Used a piece of carpet and sometimes a 3M pad. Switched to a
better paint, Micron 66, and love it. Kept the boat in all winter and the
fouling looked pretty bad this May. All the boats in y marina had a fur
attached to their hulls. I was surprised how easy it came off easily with a
soft deck brush, and very little pressure. Micron 66 is designed for Salt
Water and Fresh Water requires "Micron Extra" I think. Both can be
burnished, but the paint goes on very smooth as is, and by design gets
smoother as it ablates. They are multi season hard abatives.

Jacking user fees is one of our US political party's trick so they can say

+1 to using a NAIL-SET, -1 to using a PUNCH as was suggested elsewhere.

I used a punch and the drums are abrading my new sheets quite quickly. Not
yet sure how to address this... (they do hold like glue however)

Re: Stus-List Baby Stay on 30-2

2015-08-18 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I too would like to do something with my 30-2 baby stay. I actually saw a
30-1 near by with a 3 or 4 to 1 purchase with a cam cleat (like a
traditional boom vang) for his baby stay. I very much like this idea in
that it is a) removable and b) could be tension-ed for mid section mast
bend in blowy conditions. I hope to do away with the cable and replace with
Dyneema or eq, and then connect the purchase to the bottom of that.

It's not high on my project list right now however.

Re: Stus-List LED's for TRILIGHT?

2015-08-20 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I do not have a marine beam tricolor, but have ~5 or 6 other lights from
them. They are not the cheapest, but I have been very happy with them,
especially this one which we have throughout the cabin in our plastic
reading lamps on our 89 30-2:
http://store.marinebeam.com/red-white-switchable-led-for-dome-lights/

Remember when replacing bulbs with LEDs for nav lights, i understand that
they no longer meet colregs unless the fixture is approved for led
replacement of incandescent bulbs (which I've not seen anywhere... Cause I
looked into doing so) Therefore, if you were in a mishap at night you could
be deemed to be at fault even if you weren't. Of course the Coast Guard may
have a reason to board as well. Either scenario is admittedly unlikely, but
possible.

The new Marine Beam tricolor seems like a very good value on my opinion.

Re: Stus-List Stus List - 1983 38 Landfall on Ebay

2015-08-20 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
But has a number of qualifiers, and does not show (or mention of course)
the pulverized hull to deck joint and toe rail on the starboard side, nor
the pulpit, etc. His terms would make it very difficult, if not impossible
to arrange for a haul/inspection if you were the winning bidder. Even if he
got the boat for free it would take probably 10k to responsibly fix the
damage. Rudder post anyone? Three photos, really? The whole bit about
leaving town for Colorado for his kids school etc is his problem (if true),
not the bidders. Is it not a salvage title? He lists as "clean title".
Guess that means something different to someone on ebay than honest buyers.

 I would report the sale as a scam if I could. This guy is a scum bag.

Re: Stus-List Salvage or great price?

Remember, it's nearly impossible to finance (in a conventional way) a boat

20+ years old.

Re: Stus-List Windows laptop for chartplotter?

2015-09-09 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
+ 1 for MX Mariner. I have been using it on my 7" android tablet and
Android Phone for 3 years in tights spots and up and down the Oregon + Wa
Coasts and in the San Juans. I also have Navionics on both devices for
redundancy and with have charts downloaded on both. These apps send me
notification and/or automatically update charts whenever new NOAA
information is available (a huge plus for safety imo.) Active Captain is
also integral with both apps. MX Mariner is free, I believe Navionics was
$20 for charts of all of Northern CA, Oregon, Washington and San Juans. HD
Navionics was $50-60 as mentioned, but normal fidelity was fine on my 7"
Tablet.

Additionally I have an app called Boat Beacon which sends(with your MMSI #)
and receives AIS info. It does this only when connected to cell service
(when I need real AIS, I'll buy it.) I do also have an old handheld GPS
(with outdated charts... like nearly all non wifi enabled
GPS/Chartplotters)

If I were you Danny, I would load up your android tablet, and one or two
phones with apps/charts as a back up for the delivery. IMO the dongles,
bluetooth adapters etc, add complexity and expense and seem like an obvious
weak link in the system to me, as well as the battery drain, and not having
the plotter/laptop in the cockpit. The apps will always be cheaper than
additional hardware. But you can worry about that or not, when you get your
boat home! BTW, you'll find that most delivery skippers only use a Tablet
with Navionics because they can't trust the systems on the boats they are
delivering. And a plug for one of the only boats/blogs that are really out
there doing real sailing and not island hopping: s/v Sila
, who has been using iPad
Tablets successfully for years now, including around Cape Horn and a number
of oceanic crossings. My 2 cents.

Congratulations on your (almost) new boat Danny!

There are many available and they do not use any power and do not need to
be connected to cell service! (Though your plotter is probably fairly
efficient Andrew)

Re: Stus-List - Inflable life jacket with harness recommendation

2015-09-15 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I have the Kong double tether and highty recommend. You won't find a
cheaper/high quality 2x tether. (required for offshore racing). At a Safety
at Sea Seminar I witnessed the Spinlock Deckvest Pro inflate with the
antenna strobe and spray hood., I can tell you that this appears to be the
gold standard of all that inflated, including my own lifejacket. This is
what I am buying before my race to Hawaii in 2016.

DO NOT buy this one:
http://www.westmarine.com/buy/west-marine--offshore-sail-automatic-inflatable-life-jacket--14897433.
The straps are a poor design and loosen every 10 minutes when wearing it. I
used it for 6 mos and returned this weekend. What good is life jacket if
you cant keep it snug?

Stus-List Sailing Totem - "(C&C's) Keels Falling Off!"

2014-08-20 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Does anyone know if there is any base to the assertion the Ms. Gifford
makes in her Sailing Totem  blog that “(C&C’s) keels are falling off!”

http://www.sailfeed.com/2014/08/theres-this-boat-mary-powell/

Assuming not, could someone remind her that baseless assertions,
distributed by her through various channels (Sailfeed, email, f*book, etc.)
is irresponsible and is the malady that leads to the unfortunate
afflictions behind Rebel Heart slander and other unfortunate rumoring.

I would email, but I need to get back to work.

Re: Stus-List Nothing Will Stick!

2014-09-01 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Fwiw I've tried sticking led puck lights in my lazarette on our 30-2 and
couldn't get anything to stick there either. I just finally gave up and
stuck the adhesive with super glue from our med kit.

I also stuck one on the underside of our helm seat so that we can more
easily connect our shore power when we come in after dark Which we do
quite often, especially after dark in winter.

I am curious, did you connect the led s in lieu of the florescent fixtures
located there or adjacent to them? I would be curious to hear what you've
done for switching if it was the latter.

It's your 30-2 in the great lakes?

Best,
Kevin

I think what you are asking is simply how to tighten up the screw holes?
If so, what I did on mine was to ream out the holes a little with my handy
Dremel tool and an eighth inch rasp.
Then I inserted some SS helicoils, I think #10 NC, put a little vaseline on
the screws, screwed them in the helicoils so I could remove them, and bedded
them in the holes with thickened West System epoxy. Worked like a charm.

Subject: Stus-List Companionway hood


A couple of the screws are loose on my companionway hood, so I am planning
on removing it and giving it a good cleaning (and cleaning the gunk
underneath it).

What type of sealant should i put into the screwholes when I put it back on?
4200? Silicon?  Any advice would be appreciated.

There seemed to be quite the debate a few years ago about whether to seal
the entire underside or not.  Mine only appears to have sealant around the
screws and i don't have any leaks (at least not around the companionway!) ,
so I'll probably stick with that method.

Re: Stus-List Backstay aduster

2014-10-08 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
I second the split back with tackle/cam cleat apparatus suggestion. I race a 
bit with it and Find it straight forward and quick adjusting. Pretty direct 
feedback on rig tension.

For a 33 you may want to consider one of the fittings that ride on a split 
backstay from Johnson.  Not nearly as eloquent but effective and probably the 
best value.

If you race your boat you will find the mechanical back stay adjuster to be a 
complete PITA.


I have a stainless steel Barient back stay adjuster (5/8" pins and uses a winch 
handle to adjust) that came with my boat back in 1975 to be used in case the 
original Meriman hydraulic adjusters failed. It did indeed fail and we rigged 
the Barient and it took all that one could do to crank in enough tension just 
to straighten the mast

Hi all,
 
I sent my navtec backstay for a rebuild at Southshore and it seems the over 25 
years thing is dammaged (scratch on pump cylinder, not fixable, it still 
leaks). I'm looking at options and the two on the list are: replace it by the 
exact same thing (Navtec) or screw hydrolic and go with the mechanical option. 
Would be a Wichard product, the one with a ratchet or handle with no ratchet, 
not the wheel.
 
any opinions on that decision would be appreciated regarding reliability and 
performance (i like to play with that toy!) would a mechanical be too slow to 
adjust?
 
Thanks

Stus-List Yanmar 2gm20 crush washers?

2014-10-14 Thread Kevin Driscoll via CnC-List
Anybody happen to know what copper crush washers to buy for Yanmar 2gm20? The 
banjo fittings on my secondary fuel filter is weeping. I'd prefer not to take 
it apart to find out since we are out on the boat so often. Like to have therm 
in hand before starting the replacement. There may be others I imagine.

Thanks
Kevin

Re: Stus-List Ebola?

Boatless Yanni.

Take a look at this brief documentary from Frontline. A government
conspiracy? But I guess everything is...

Let's stick to butyl and C&C fin keel conspiracies, which is perhaps,
comprehendible for everybody on the list as Sam suggested.
