Dave, Two years ago I found led bulb that were sold as replacements for the aquasignal 25. They were about the same price as a complete Victory fixture. The lenses of the existing aqua signal were still clear so I went for the led bulbs. After one season only, at least one side on the "tree si

Re: Stus-List Quick summary of LED nav lights currently available.

Dave, I wrote in a previous post that I had replaced my AS 25 with 40. My mistake, i was talking about the led 33 series. Different look, but smaller and not too flashy. Quality seems good. I can tell you that the victory looks cheap, are big and boxy looking and feel. My opinion, that was the

Re: Stus-List C&C 33-2 livability improvement - settee access

Nice Dave, On my 1987 33 mk II the water tank is port side under this sette and it is original, so the starboard side is storage and more accessible. This must have an impact in weight distribution? How many 33 mk II owners have their tank on the starboard side? Bruno lachance Bécassine, 1987

Re: Stus-List Flooded Batteries

Peter, Your problem is very likely a very small leak in your fuel system. Your starter turns until the system is primed and it will stay fine for few hours, but then air gets in again. I experienced this problem before, my leak was at the secondary fuel filter. yanmar 2 GM20F Bruno Lachance B

Re: Stus-List Rod Rigging inspection

I ordered a new forestay for my 33-2 this season at Klacko Spars in Oakville Ontario. The old one had a kink at the top, probably from a haylard wrap, not enough length to rehead so i decided to replace the whole thing. The cost of the new forestay (# 8 rod) including the nose piece/fitting for

Stus-List Yanmar cooling system and water heater bypass

Hi, I just remove a air heater that was nstalled by premious owner. It was T in the coolant hoses going to the water heater but never woeked well. I guess the hoses running in the bilges was too much of a heat loss. So anyways, i'm going back to original and simplicity and i remember somebody

Re: Stus-List Shortening the shaft log by cutting

Josh, what about loosing the dampener instead? I know you have it, but With a good alignment you shouldn't need it. I think I would prefer to keep the shaft log intact, it also keeps / brings the seal a bit forward. I'm wondering if it adds some sort of support to the shaft. Few years ago when I
