Re: Stus-List C&C 48 Morning Star

Kurt, Do you know what her hull number is, and whether Morning Star was her original name? To my knowledge, only three or four 48s were built. I sailed the Trans Superior on one. I also believe the 48 was the last design for C&C by George Cuthbertson, before he took on the presidency and handed d

Hello C&C Faithful, I'm a longtime C&C guy, from the time my dad bought a 27 in the early 70s 'til now. I own a 36-1 with two other families here in Seattle. I recently became a boat broker here in Seattle, and we have a unique listing that I think some of you might appreciate. It's the C&C 48

Re: Stus-List [EXTERNAL] Dripless shaft seal for 35 mkIII

Gary, I have a dripless and as Jeff put it, it was one of the best improvements I made. My bilge is completely dry. When I installed it (7 years ago), I too replaced everything: the shaft, coupling, cutlass bearing. My original shaft was bronze(?), I replaced it with SS. Installation is not t

Re: Stus-List [EXTERNAL] Dripless shaft seal for 35 mkIII

Lots of opinions abundantly expressed previously regarding pros and cons of dripless vs stuffing box. As for installation of dripless, those who have dripless might help Joe out? I replaced everything -- coupling, shaft, dripless, cutlass bearing. The shaft and coupling need to be machined at

I'd recommend the old fashioned stuffing box over the dripless as well. Andy Masquerade Andrew Burton 26 Beacon Hill Newport, RI USA 02840 http://sites.google.com/site/andrewburtonyachtservices/ https://burtonsailing.com/ phone +401 965 5260 On Wed, Apr 15, 2020 at 4:17 PM David Risch via CnC-L

Re: Stus-List Sliding Hatch Leaks

Charlie, one of the benefits of having a nice large dodger is keeping those leaky areas nice and dry...! Works very well in rains; light rains, at least; in a gale, not so much...; Mine is actually a bit oversized, compared to what I see on the northern boats...; not sure why they are design

On my LF 38, I have stainless steel bars that the hatch slides on. These bars overlap the edges and prevent rainwater from entering the boat. They were original equipment on my 1983 boat. Bob Bob Boyer s/v Rainy Days C&C Landfall 38 (Hull # 230) (Spending winters in the Bahamas, summers in Ba

Re: Stus-List Sliding Hatch Leaks //was CnC-List Digest, Vol 171, Issue 50

The canvas cover looks like a great idea--and easy/inexpensive to either do or have done--I may go that way to keep water at bay (or in the bay as this case may be!).  However, if one is on the boat during a rain event--the canvas would not be very practical since it is attached on the outside a

I have one and I like it, but given modern Teflon packing materials you might want to look at that as well. The dripless seals can have nasty failure modes. Joe Della Barba Coquina C&C 35 MK I www.dellabarba.com -Original Message- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com]

Sounds like any plastic washer will be better than what you have. Obviously you won’t want to buy something out of your country, but this https://www.mcmaster.com/standard-thrust-bearings/plain-bearings/ultra-low-friction-dry-running-thrust-bearings/ sounds like what you are looking for.

I got a little more information, so this part is usually called "rudder washer" or "rudder thrust ring" - but in my case it is not a ring, but only 1/4 of a ring. Usually this washer is made of some kind of thermoplastic (vesconite), delrin etc. In my case this material looks and feels like brake p

Stus-List C&C 30E rudder head

Hey I dissassembled my C&C 30E rudder. In top of the rudder stock is rudder head, which prevents rudder from dropping off. Under rudder head is some kind of metallic material - looks like braking pad - attached with two screws. This pad rubs against bronze rudder carrier. Problem is, that this "b
