Stus-List Stuffing box

Should have something like 3 drops per minute when under way and the coupling should be at ambient temperature with that level of dripping. Cheers, Paul. On 14-06-01 11:45 AM, David Knecht via CnC-List wrote: Splashing and first motor/sail is always such an interesting (read frustrating) time

Right. I have 1500 hours on mine. I let it drip a little bit, but not much. I probably should replace it, but you can't get it down here. Wal Jack wrote: The good news is that once you get it right, you shouldn’t have to touch it for many years. It has been about three years since I had the h

I thought Cape Dory too... until I saw the fractional rig. That says something less conservative (for the day). I don't believe Carl did any frac rigs? here's a nice A-30 project. In the interest of full disclosure, she's my younger brother's boat. Refit in Idaho and now she's laying in
