Re: Stus-List AERIAL conflict?

Two issues: 1. RF interference: Does the signal from one radio degrade the operation of the other radio? 2. Antenna detuning: Does one antenna interact with the near-field RF to detune the other antenna? Starting with 2, if you mount a vertical antenna at the same level as the VHF

Stus-List Sealant for chainplates.

Can someone with a 35 mkI or II let me know the sealant used at the deck when rebedding a chainplate. 4000? Your assistance is much appreciated. Glen Eddie Tel: 416-777-5357 Fax: 1-888-812-2557 ged...@torkinmanes.com VCard

Re: Stus-List Solar day/night fans - things you need to know

Rick, You went into a lot more detail. Good job. Your post was better at explaining what I had seen about the 20803 vs the 20703 and the fitment issues with the 20803. Both have fairly vertical sides for catching lines. By "new" Nicro, I meant the 20703 as opposed to the old Nicro that's been

I second the butyl tape. I've found it to be the best long term solution. But make sure to get the stuff from Compass Marine. Mark McMenamy C&C 25 Icicle On Apr 10, 2018, at 9:23 AM, Glenn Gambel via CnC-List mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: I rebedded Wind N Spirits chainplates with 4

Re: Stus-List Sealant for chainplates.

I have to do the same thing, again. Used Lifecaulk in August, 2015 and noticed last month one chainplate was damp, and the boat is still under its winter cover. The Maine Sail tape seems to be the favorite bedding material of the list. What is the “life expectancy” of a chainplate seal u

Re: Stus-List Sealant for chainplates.

In my opinion, the issue with many sealants is they "cure" or set. So a polyurethane or silicone sets and becomes less flexible. Further, many of those sealants do not adhere tenaciously to metal. Butyl tape, on the other hand, remains sticky and pliable for a long, long time. That means it wil

Re: Stus-List Sealant for chainplates.

I wish I would have discovered butyl years ago. I traditionally used life caulk and redid it when it looked like it needed. My advice to C&C35-1 owners is to remove the teak cover off the cabin side of the upper shroud chain plate to look for leakage. Neil Schiller 1983 C&C 35-3, #28 “Grace”

Re: Stus-List Sealant for chainplates.

What about Polyethers? Flexible, adheres to plastics (3M 4000UV does anyway). Here’s what West Marine says about them: Polyether: One of the most exposure resistant sealants, unaffected by teak oils or cleaners, permanently flexible, and sandable. West Marine Multi-Caulk is an excellent choice f

Re: Stus-List Solar day/night fans - things you need to know

I had installed two of the 20703 fans on the top of my dorade boxes (as replacements for the cowl vents that kept jumping overboard). The diameter of the fans overhung the sides of the dorade boxes a bit, and both were snagged and destroyed by flogging sheets during my  voyage to Bermuda last year.

Re: Stus-List Sealant for chain plates.

Butyl it is and never look back. Had similar issues of leakage and redid all chain plates with butyl and nary a drop since then. Biggest issue is the movement of the chain plate through the deck. When you apply the sealant everything is at rest. When the shrouds are torqued to spec, there i

Re: Stus-List Sealant for chain plates.

I agree with all who recommend butyl tape. However, they forgot a few additional benefits. !. It's the product used by C&C when they built our boats. 2. It's removable. 3 It's less expensive than all the other sealants. 4. A roll will last you for years. Gary S/V Kaylarah '90 C&C 37+ East Gree

1993 37/40. Redoing the rod rigging, mast is down. Removed the aluminum mast step to media blast and powder coat. There are three `stringers` the mast step sits on. The forward and aft stringers,which the step is bolted to, are bulging. Tapping on them reveals a delamination inside. I am thinking t
