Stus-List wiring problems- Help!

I am working on a rewiring project for my Universal M4-30 and ran into some questions I am hoping someone can help clarify. 1. I took the alternator off last fall to have it checked (it was fine). My pictures and recollection is that I disconnected two wires from the back- heavy orange from

Stus-List WESTERBEKE VS ATOMIC HEAT EXCHANGER

Hi guys, just surfacing again, trying to do a buddy a favour I have a surplus WESTERBEKE 4-60 engine which was pulled from my boat to accommodate my electric drive. My buddy has an ATOMIC 4 with raw water cooling and wants to know if you can install the WESTERBEKE heat exchanger onto the ATOMI

Re: Stus-List WESTERBEKE VS ATOMIC HEAT EXCHANGER

You need another pump, usually driven off flywheel. I have some spare A4 FWC stuff if he is interested. Petar Horvatic Sundowner 76 C&C 38MkII On the hard at Stanleys in barrington -Original Message- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Alex Giannelia vi

Re: Stus-List Lazy Jack advice

Thanks for the helpful replies. I do have a rigid vang supporting the boom, so that is not a problem. Once the sail is down and we are on the mooring, I also carry the main halyard aft and attach it to where the topping lift used to attach. From your inputs so far, it sounds like 4 lines is o

Stus-List Keel Bolt Overtightening?

Anyone have an idea of signs to look for to make sure I'm not overtightening my keel bolts on my C&C 29-2? I tightened them last weekend using a torque wrench and went to about 205 ft lbs for the 1 in bold and about 70 ft lbs for the the 1/2 inch; both of which are below the values listed on the to

Re: Stus-List Keel Bolt Overtightening?

So that means the base is likely soft. I ended up re-glassing area around the two forward bolts and adding a larger ¼” aluminum plate to provide larger surface so I can get to required torque. You can see the backing plate in this photo. https://www.cruisersforum.com/forums/members/1842-albu

Stus-List Yanmar Hand Starting Handle

Hello all...trying to source a hand starting handle for my Yanmar 3qm30 so I may adjust my valves when the head goes back on. Tried the net to no avail. Perhaps one of you has an extra one hanging around for purchase (or short-term lease)? Thanks in advance. David F. Risch (401) 419-4650 (

It should be easy enough to get one made, Dave. Andy C&C 40 Peregrine Andrew Burton 61 W Narragansett Newport, RI USA02840 http://sites.google.com/site/andrewburtonyachtservices/ +401 965-5260 > On Apr 20, 2017, at 18:17, David via CnC-List wrote: > > Hello all...trying to source a hand

Re: Stus-List Icebox conversion...

Chuck, I did the Adler-Barbour conversion on my ice box a long time ago. It is air cooled and works well here in Virginia. It was not a difficult project. Tedious, but not difficult. The compressor and coils reside in the port lazarette on a small shelf that I glassed to the hull. I can

Re: Stus-List Keel Bolt Overtightening?

Gene, The original washers on my boat were not very substantial. They did flex and bend. After my keel R&R, I have new washers that are much more substantial now. Actually, my new washers also have backing plates that spread the load out much better. I highly recommend them. Jake

Stus-List Epoxy hole filling

Hi, I read about this tip the other day and got to try it today. It was on Paul Calder's blog on Sailfeed, he's Nigel's son. I had a number of screw holes in my anchor locker hatch and cockpit seat lid to pot with epoxy to provide secure holding for the hinge screws. I drilled out all the ex

Re: Stus-List Icebox conversion...

Chuck, Jake, et al: I have just done the same conversion, switching from an old Sea Frost unit which ran off the engine. The new unit is a Norcold Norcolder 4408 Series, with the L-shaped plate (purchased from Defender). It works well and is much smaller than the Sea Frost. Like Jake's it

You don't need it. You can roll the engine by hand easily enough. Josh Muckley S/V Sea Hawk 1989 C&C 37+ Solomons, MD On Apr 20, 2017 3:18 PM, "David via CnC-List" wrote: Hello all...trying to source a hand starting handle for my Yanmar 3qm30 so I may adjust my valves when the head goes back o

Re: Stus-List Yanmar Hand Starting Handle

Another approach, if the front pulley is accessible, is to put a deep socket on the nut holding the pulley to the crankshaft, then use a socket wrench or a breaker bar to rotate the engine. Neil Gallagher Weatherly, 35-1 Glen Cove, NY On 4/20/2017 6:17 PM, David via CnC-List wrote: Hello a

Re: Stus-List Epoxy hole filling

Hey Derek - that is a handy tip. I am going through the same process on my C&C 29-1. I look forward to doing that with my next hole repair when I move some cleats. BTW - I am using Marine-Tex epoxy putty for filling holes and divots and it works good so far. Anybody have any long term experience wi

Re: Stus-List Epoxy hole filling

I used it to fill dimple-like mini-blisters (lots of them) on the bottom of my Ranger 26 a long time ago. Worked great – no issues underwater for several years. I’ve been using it ever since. Measuring the two parts if you’re not using an entire box is a bit of a pain, but I remain a big fan.
