Stus-List Block Island Rendezvous, 2013

Just a quick note to let everyone know we made the news in Windcheck Magazine. Don't forget to thank them!!! I stole the gist of the text from something Dave Risch wrote so he should get some of the credit. I sent in several photos for them to choose from, but, deep down inside I was hoping they

Has anyone on the list tried to install a fuel level sending unit in a non-SAE standard 5 hole flange housing? My 1971 C&C 30 has a 20 gal Monel Gas tank. The fuel level sending unit was not working and very poorly installed. The flange holes on the tank are not the standard SAE 5 hole. Instead th

Edd, The Narragansett is an interesting place. Very dated, but very well kept, it's a time warp. They have a neat little bar and it's a short walk to The Oar. I think it's charming. (note; I have not stayed there in five years or so) On the ODD chance there is a serious heat wave going on the

Aside from the C&C pedigree and the condition it was in, the looks really sealed the deal when I purchased my 32.

Re: Stus-List Best C&C's of all time

The reason - IMHO - a lot of the old ones get picked is they stood out more. In the early 70s a C&C looked like a race horse and all the other boats looked like mules or donkeys. The newer you get the less they stand out. I am sure the 99 and 115 are very fine boats, but it isn't like "WOW, I ha
