Re: Stus-List West System cored hull time to cure

Steve — the hull is probably NOT cored in the usual spot for transducers (near centerline, ahead of the keel; usually up under the v-berth or just aft of it). You should be able to drill the hole, slather up the transducer with LifeSeal, stick it in and tighten the nut on the inside, then launc

Re: Stus-List Inaccessible area in forward section of dining table in LF 38

Bob — are you talking about the very forward portion of the pedestal? I don’t have a “tray” there; but that section under the lid is raised, and beneath it is where the forward post mounts to support the table. So there’s really no storage space there. — Fred Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V O

Re: Stus-List Seasickness

Mike — being north of the border, have you tried Stugeron (Cinnarizine)? Although I’m normally not prone to seasickness, the few times I’ve needed something (the first day or so of an open-ocean passage), I’ve had much better luck with that than with Scop. Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceani

Re: Stus-List Triple Pole Breaker.

Ahmet — a three-pole breaker like that would typically be used on a 240-volt shore power system, which has TWO hots and a neutral. The breaker would interrupt all three of those, with the ground left untouched. NEVER DISCONNECT THE SAFETY GROUND!!! If your friend only has a 120-volt system, h
