I appreciate the info and pics regarding the C&C 24 keel bolts. I am going
to look into having a lift point fabricated for my boat.
Thanks,

Here's what I've been doing on my 2-bladed MaxProp.
It keeps barnacles away for about 5 months.
After cleaning the prop with a wire wheel, I use spray polyurethane, applying 4
to 6 thin coats and let dry thoroughly.
Just prior to launch, apply Petitt's gray, spray paint [barnacle barrier] ove

Pete, why the polyurethane? Are you trying to keep the bronze / zinc
separated?

Hi All.
I just volunteered my boat for a test case using these LED strip lights
that are available on ebay cheap out of china. I haven't seen them used on
boats before. They are marketed as being waterproof. There are a few
variations on the LED types with the two most common being "SMD 5050" and

Steve -- 4500K is a fairly bright, bluish-white light (daylight is about
6500K). If they have something in closer to 2700K or even 3200K, that would be
a much warmer-colored light, more like incandescent.
Something to think about.

They have a "warm white" but they appeared yellow, like YELLOW, not
incandescent. To be honest I don't know how accurate their colour
temperatures are. I picked the "in between" one because I figure this is a
test and I'll know I can go colder or warmer from this point.

I bought 16 feet of LED's from LED Wholesalers in Calif. They are the warm
white 3528. They are quite yellow. There are 15 LED's per foot. I
installed 30 of them in an old florescent fixture.While it is a nice
light it does not put out enough light to be an area light in the galley.
I am s
The numbers refer to the physical size of the individual LEDs (so 3528
is 3.5mm x 2.8mm, 5050 is 5mm x 5mm). 5050, being bigger, will both
cast more light and use more power.
I just replaced one fluorescent fixture by making a replacement with 3
feet of 120 LED per meter material, 3528 size.
It makes sense; the job of a primer is to adhere to difficult surfaces and to
have a substrate for the paint to attach to. Zinc being more reactive than
copper (biggest part of bronze & brass) and in an ionic form, there should be
no (or not much) displacement.

I would love to see some pictures of your setup, Graham.
Yes, the 5050 are larger because they contain 3 leds per cell which apparently
allows for RGB and mixing any colour.
The v-berth is definitely a good candidate.

Hi Steve
The mixing can be done at smaller sizes as well, size is more related to
the light output.
I'll try to remember to take some pictures when I'm done.

Anybody know anything about Ralph Racca and Black Magic, a C&C 34+?
I wanted to find out about his runner setup.
The boat raced Newport to Block Island in May of 2008.

Joel,
Thanks for the PHRF NE rating info. Of those boats listed, which designs are
commonly at or near the top of each class in the NE?
Here in the PNW we have an abundance of light air and current which often

Martin,
Im on the Chesapeake but I use the PHRF ratings as a general guide. I
couldn't tell you which boats outperform.
I'd guess the J s are lighter and sail better in light air but I haven't
gone to sailboatdata.com to do the research. In the BVIs the light air
advantage would be less signific

Compared to a Hunter 30, they can hardly go wrong with either of the
C&C's or a J/40. ;-)
It's like someone who drives a '76 Chevette debating the merits of a
BMW M Series vs a Porsche.

Dear C&C seeker,
Newer C&C designs (before 1996) are faster just because they kept improving
their designs. This proves out by PHRF ratings. But newer costs more.
Deep keels point better than centerboarders and are thousands of pounds lighter
so they excel in lighter winds too. But in open wat
Fun project:
Found the C&C 41 in Saint Marteen on Yachtworld.
Looks decent. But I don't see sails or racing hardware listed? Might be a basic
boat and need $30K in hardware and sail upgrades to race?

Hi Martin,
Saint Marteen C&C 41 has some sails; 2 mains and a #1 and #2 and furler.
Pros: Has a mix of instruments including depth and wind and a plotter. Looks
like it's worth checking out for the price and effort to prep for sale.
Cons: Looks to be a truncated diamond IOR hull. (newer desig
