So far we have $150. The auction needs an end date, so I will say one week from now, Feb 3, at 2200 EST. We also need photos. I will post some tonight for everyone. For now, there is a main unit for down below, a cockpit pedestal guard repeater, and the transducers. You can get a good idea of wh

Re: Stus-List Rudder removal

Be warned - C&C used iron collars, at least in 1973. I replaced mine with a stainless collar and a backup in the cockpit where the rudder post pokes through for the tiller. The iron was at least 2/3s wasted away after about 38 years. Joe Della Barba Coquina From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun.

If it is anything like the old version of it on the 35, it will do fine motoring and going to windward. Downwind with any kind of following sea will be not so good. Joe Della Barba -Original Message- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Paul Eugenio Sent:

I would strongly suggest he get on the A4 forum over at Moyer Marine. Someone there is likely to have a lead on one and Moyer sells new and rebuilt engines as well. Joe Della Barba Coquina From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Aaron Rouhi Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 20

Re: Stus-List Atomic 4

Nothing is an *exact* drop in, but Beta Marine has IMHO the best "almost an A4" diesels. They are based on Kubota blocks. I lucked out and got a very nice A4 that had been rebuilt as a project by an engineering officer for $1500 on Craigslist. I bought it within about 45 minutes of the ad going

Re: Stus-List The real reason to switch from an AT4 to a diesel

Yes - are a big factor here. I replaced my engine for $1500 and one day's work. No way to even come close to that with a new diesel. The other big thing is comparing like with like. A brand new Moyer A4 would be vastly superior to the original diesel that some 35 MK 1s came with back in 197

Re: Stus-List Atomic 4

Explosions: I think at least 90% of the boats in the USA with engines have gasoline engines, so the explosion rate is quite low. That said, if you have an older C&C – at least up to 1973 and maybe quite a bit past that – with a gasoline engine and original fuel system components YOU ARE STANDING

Re: Stus-List Atomic 4

One more thing for A4 or potential A4 owners: The A4 has kind of turned into an "open source" project. You can now build an A4 that is vastly better than the original stock engine. Moyer Marine (http://www.moyermarine.com) and Indigo (www.atomic4.com) have any number of m

Re: Stus-List Atomic 4

Nah - the A4 is a strictly marine engine with no relationship at all to other engines in land vehicles. The way the flywheel and tranny are set up it cannot possibly be used for anything but a boat. Its ancestor is the "Utility Four" widely used in WWII in various types of small craft. Joe Dell

Re: Stus-List The real reason to switch from an AT4 to a diesel

I don't think fuel economy is relevant in the same way it is for a car. I hardly ever buy more than 150 gallons of boat gas a year, so even free diesel wouldn't pay for an engine swap. What does matter is physical space. The previous Coquina had a 4-107 Westerbeake diesel and the same size fuel

I would always feel good about a LF38 :) IMHO one of the best offshore boats C&C ever made. The layout is fantastic for the on-watch to get below for navigation or whatever and still have the main cabin closed off for the off-watch. OTOH my boat, while being the old school design, would not win

Re: Stus-List C&C 41...offshore cnc models- now heaving to

Heaving to is pretty easy to practice. Tack but don't let the jib sheet go. On the new tack turn the wheel to windward. The rudder is trying to head you up and the backwinded jib is doing the opposite, so the boat kind of just sits there. Useful for making lunch or taking a dump if you have no a
