Stus-List Anyone racing C&C 30 MKII?

I am thinking of moving up from racing my C&C 24. The 30 MKII has many features I am wanting in the next racer cruiser. I wonder how the wing keel performs. Chesapeake PHRF rating is 180 vs 150 for standard keel. I have won a few ragattas the last year with the 24, but ready for a boat to also

Re: Stus-List Soda blasting bottoms

I had my C&C 24 Soda blasted in 2016. Awesome! I then did 3-4 coats of interlux barrier coat, then ablative anti-fouling paint. I did some fairing and minor sanding. Fixes a keel smile with rebed, too. Surveyor this past spring gave me a passing grade on all. It's way easier for sure. And ca

Stus-List GPS option

I saw a post about GPS options just to collect data. Here is another option: https://www.byonics.com/products I have used the bionics GPS with my Kenwood APRS enabled VHF HT for ham radio applications. However, for my C&C 24, I will be using my Garmin GPSMap78sc connected to my new Raymarine ST1

Stus-List C&C 24 Portholes

Before the snow started today, we got the old portholes out with the leaky lenses. I have new lenses from another C&C 24 owner he never used before he crushed the boat. So, I have to get all the goup and junk off the frames, get them clean. Then figure out how to install properly. We put a tarp

Re: Stus-List Learning to sail in a small boat (Franklin Schenk)

4 years ago, the parents of one of the HS cross country athletes I coached gave me a 1964 Pearson Hawk 15.5' day sailor. It had been sitting under a walnut tree for 16 years. It was a mess on a trailer. I power washed it inside and out and then went through the process of restoring it. I sailed

Re: Stus-List mast gate

I ordered a fixed Mast gate / mastgates.com for my C&C 24 and installed it last week. It was really useful when we had to reef and un-reef during the 2017 Gov Cup race last weekend. We were able to get a better trim on the main when reefed than before. Tom and I went back and forth a couple of t

Re: Stus-List Opinions on hull/keel crack expansion

When I pulled my C&C 24, I had a little keel smile, too. I got the yard to work with me to brake the keel bolt nuts free. It required just a little heat, too. We then raised the jack stands so I had about 3/4"-1" gap between the keel and the bottom of the boat. I really could not have gone more

I acquired a 1976 C&C 24 in July '16. This winter, I pulled the boat and had the hull soda blasted. There were many years of unnecessary anti-fouling paint built up and flaking off. After it was soda blasted, I found crazing of the gel coat everywhere. There were some gel coat blisters near the
