Re: Stus-List C&C 33-I Spreaders?

Hi David, Not much help for your 33-1 spreader search... I'm not sure if the spreader tip is somehow integral to the rod rigging juncture there. If so, replacing the spreader might require extra pieces. Does your rig have the "diamond shroud" refit? That would add an additional connection at the sp

Re: Stus-List Exhaust hose replacement for 33-1

I've crouched within Ox's starboard lazarette and realized there was no way I could even reach the quadrant for a belowdeck homebrew autopilot project. (My BMI = 28.7). One time, while replacing the waterlift muffler, I remember looking at the exhaust hose going back into the inky-black shadows of

Re: Stus-List Overpriced?

I carry liability but not hull insurance. If Ox sinks, I cry for a day. Insurance covers environmental impact charges. Bob M Ox 33-1 Jax, FL On Sun, Oct 26, 2014 at 3:36 PM, Robert Abbott via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > Thanks everyone for your thoughts on this...I am now comf

Tom, I can email you some pics of an abandoned rudderstock autopilot project for Ox, a 33-1. A couple of the highlights include a tape measure. Contact me off-list at bobmo...@gmail.com Bob M Ox 33-1 Jax, FL On Sun, Oct 19, 2014 at 8:40 AM, Tom Carmichael via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrot

Re: Stus-List Butyl

I used a roll of grey butyl "tape" from an RV store (along with the original screws) to secure the aluminum portlight frames to the cabintop on my 1976 33-1. Note these are old style portlights, not the newer frameless acrylic(?) portlights that folks like to secure to the cabintop with Sikaflex..

Re: Stus-List Online Captains License or class room?

Fred, could you elaborate on this? I might be misunderstanding - not unusual - but it sounds like having a CG/6-pack/whatever license increases one's liability on the water. "He should have known better, he was licensed". Bob M Ox 33-1 Jax, FL On Fri, Oct 3, 2014 at 5:21 PM, Frederick G Street via

FWIW, There's a 1979 Landfall recently for sale in Jacksonville, FL for $31K. http://www.sailboatlistings.com/view/45617 Not clear where the boat's titled. The phone number has a Mexican country code. Bob M Ox 33-1 Jax, FL On Tue, Sep 16, 2014 at 8:41 PM, Berry Fox via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-lis

Re: Stus-List Maiden voyage

Thank you Burt. I'll watch videos like yours all day long - especially while at work. Your boat looks a lot nicer (and more modern) than my 1976 33-1. Is that the original rig? Bob M Ox 33-1 Jax, FL On Mon, Aug 18, 2014 at 6:02 PM, Burt Stratton via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > J

Re: Stus-List Ok more atomic 4 issues...dammit!

Hi Danny, This is a long email thread. I've read much of it but scanned over some parts. A couple of things: 1) The Moyer Marine website is a better source of A4 info and help. 2) My 33-1 came with a newly rebuilt A4 in 2006. It's performed fairly well for daysailing. I rarely run the engine for mo

I've been an 8-9 year consumer of Stu's List wisdom - mostly contributing questions and an occasional opinion. I'm curious what people think of the Shannon 38, referenced below, as a retirement boat for bumping up and down the US East Coast. I realize it's not a C&C but the opinions of many on the

That's big bucks for a 30 year old C&C. Nearby, a 39 foot '84 C&C center cockpit now has an asking price of $40K. Fred, I think you noticed this one awhile ago.

DYI - Damn Yankee Ingenuity. We C&Cers have tremendous platforms for tinkering - old but solid design and construction. And, aesthetically correct. Some like to tinker moving cars and travellers. Others change rudders, rigs and keels. It's all fun. Maybe you're thinking about something like the
