Stus-List Re: help with hull numbers

I think you got it right. The C&C 30 MKI was a very popular design and my experience she is one helluva good boat. The company was turning out a lot of boats in 1974. My 35MK II hull 242 was also a 1974 model. I am not sure if there was a 1973 35MKII. Your 30 is one of the stiffest designs in the C

Hauling, winter storage on the hard and launch run close to $2000 for my 35MKII. I store mast up and haven’t unstepped the mast for about 10 years at least but if I unstepped on haulout, stored my mast on an outdoor rack at the yard and then stepped before launch that would add another about $600 t

I guess my Racor filter must be installed lower than the pickup line for fuel in the tank because if I don’t close the valve in the line from the tank fuel flow is continuous when I change the Racor filter element.

Things get old. We age with them. My new instruments are already old but I like them and I want to keep them working like they do now. Good enough for me. Raymarine speed depth and wind. I find apparent wind angle invaluable when it comes to sail trim and VMG. My instruments are mounted in a pod

Stus-List Re: Fuel pump problem?

I have the same engine with a 12v Facet electric fuel pump. Check the 12v supply to the pump first. When I turn the ignition key on if the fuel pump is working there is a very obvious clicking sound. Open the bleed screw and you should see a good flow of fuel. I purchased a solid state Facet 12v fu

For some of us a race starts every time another sail is in sight. I am a little bit of that vintage lately having become more selective based on potential boat speed or phrases numbers. The landfalls are great C&C’s. I had a landfall 35 close by me in the yard. Nice and the 38 too. I like the ways

Mine has been excellent actually the best test in a big overnight blow where it held my C&C 35 and a Catalina 36 rafted along side us. I have the stainless steel knock off version which was a mistake that looks good. it needs to be protected with its own anode or it destroys the zinc on the anchor
