Re: Stus-List Holes in deck

You are correct. However, unless I'm stunned, the original problem was how to seal up a hole in the deck with the wires already installed. Maybe I'm stunned Mmmm? Rich Knowles Indigo. LF38 Halifax On 2012-09-23, at 23:43, cenel...@aol.com wrote: I may have it wrong but from the diagrams on

Re: Stus-List Holes in deck

I may have it wrong but from the diagrams on the site, it looks like one drills a hole in the deck (or uses one already there), puts the cable thru all the cable clam pieces and then tightens the screws provided. This looks like it both compresses and seals the rubber gasket around the cable an

Re: Stus-List Holes in deck

Hmmm. Since you have now cut a slot to fit the wires ino the base, the rubber seal and the compression piece, it strikes me that there is not much left in the way of waterproof integrity. Out comes the goop? Rich Knowles Indigo. LF38 Halifax On 2012-09-23, at 22:04, "Dennis C." wrote: Since i

Re: Stus-List Holes in deck

Since it attachesd to the deck with fasteners and also uses fasteners to compress the rubber bushing, one should be able to drill the holes in the deck, dry fit it, then pull it up, cut a slot in both pieces and the rubber bushing, slide the cable through the slots in all and fasten it to the de

Arrgh! I think you are right!It looks like all of the modern clutches have longer bases. This one may have to wait until I have time to make a new base. Recommendations for clutches and base materials? Joel Sent from my iPad On Sep 23, 2012, at 8:14 PM, Paul Fountain wrote: > If its origi

Hi Edd, Great to see you make the bridge opening at Mystic this morning. Did you notice the schooner Brilliant chasing you out? She's a beautiful S&S design from the 30's and a favorite. I toured the antique cars and a few small boat exhibits. I'll send you some pictures. Left around 11 and

Stus-List Rope clutches

One of the clutches on my 35/3 is shot. It is part of a triple on the cabin top. There is no name on it but it looks like a Garhauer. Its not spinlock lewmar or easylock. Any other possibilities? I'd like to make the replacement as painless as possible. Thanks! Joel Sent from my iPad

If you can make a clean slit in the rubber bung to the hole you drill for the wire size it will fit over the wire then seal nicely when compressed - did that with the radar cable when it had a large plug installed on each end. They work well. Cheers -Original Message- From: cnc-list-boun..

Re: Stus-List Holes in deck

They are excellent, use them all the time, but they have to be installed over the hole and then run the wires. I understood the challenge to be how to seal the holes with the wires already run. Hence the goop suggestion. Rich Knowles Indigo. LF38 Halifax On 2012-09-23, at 17:10, Charles Nelson

Re: Stus-List Holes in deck

Will one of these things fit? I have four of them for various wires that must pass through the deck. You can add and change wires over time, and they're *totally* waterproof. Heck, two of them handle wires from my solar panels, which pa
