Re: Stus-List Need to replace forward hatch on 35 mkIII

Hi Matthew Atkins & Hoyle make the direct replacement, but there is an alternative - I put on a low profile stainless hatch from these guys. http://www.manshipmarine.com/low-profile-deck-hatch.html I'll look to see if I have any pics.

Re: Stus-List Instrument Cabling / Edson Pedestal Guard

I've got a Ray A75 on my pedestal guard, one thing that hasn't been commented - put a grommet in the hole in the guard tube, to protect the wiring. Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 On 2020-04-22 9:16 a.m., bwhitmore via CnC-List wrote: Hi Edd , I did a similar thing as Josh with an e

Re: Stus-List Halyard problem

No restrainer, no problem.  Harken furler, I replaced a broken Hood furler the previous owner had, no evidence there's ever been a restrainer on the mast. Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 On 2020-04-09 11:43 a.m., David Knecht via CnC-List wrote: Francois emailed me off list to say t

Re: Stus-List Pedestal gear shift handle

I had it become very difficult to shift in/out of gear with my Yanmar 2 years ago, I was freaking out that I'd need to rebuild the transmission.  Put a new cable on it, now I can shift with my pinkie finger. Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 On 2020-04-09 10:19 a.m., bwhitmore via CnC

Re: Stus-List CnC-List Digest, Vol 171, Issue 27

Hi Paul The levers are identical I think, symmetrical at least.  You could pull the throttle out temporarily and use it as a template to fabricate up a workable replacement from a piece of flat bar stock, wouldn't look as nice as the original but would work a lot better than what you have now

Re: Stus-List Pedestal Gear Shift

It is an old Edison, with up/down moving levers that stick out to either side and the cables go through an aft pair of guard tubes. I owned an 1980 Aloha with this setup.  You might be able to find one e-bay or one of the big consignment shops, or you could retrofit the more common lever setup

Hi Tom That was plan A for my linear drive, but the floor of the propane locker on mine is super thin - a couple of layers of glass, no rigidity.  Give it a tap, I would bet yours is the same.  Not designed for serious loads. Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 On 2020-02-19 7:11 p.m.

Hi Gary The sink in the 35-3 is like that as well, I put a valve in the drain line just below the sink - have to open the cupboard to get at it, no big deal.  We don't use the sink in there much though, just at anchor usually. Graham Collins Secret Plans C&C 35-III #11 On 2020-02-14 9:56 p.

Re: Stus-List Dumb wiring question

Grounds can be common so long as you aren't electrically overloading the ground wire - which, adding the load of a windex light to it, is unlikely. I'd say go for it. My mast lights come out of the mast to a terminal strip, there are two ground wires from it back to the ground buss bar, 4 lig
