Re: Stus-List substitution of depth transducers

This is the first one I’ve heard of that failed. Usually they’re very reliable. It’s just a thermistor potted in the transducer housing: http://www.airmartechnology.com/uploads/wiringdiagrams/91_636.pdf No info on the value o

Re: Stus-List DST800 Transducer (tri)

Hi, Steve — these transducers ARE the same, only with different plugs. The Garmin one is actually cheaper than the Raymarine through my vendor. As these are NMEA2000-native transducers, and the instruments you’ve got are only SeaTalk1, you can’t use the triducer directly with the instruments wi

Re: Stus-List Tide prediction app for my IPad? with great lakes twist

Pete — I’m not seeing anything on TZ for current on Lake Superior. It doesn’t surprise me, as there are very few data buoys on the lake, and looking at the National Data Buoy Center website data for the buoys out on the lake, I don’t see any current data. Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis

Re: Stus-List little A&H hatches on a LF38

Sorry, make that “eight by fifteen inches”. I’ve got a call in to them to see if they still have the CNC pattern, and to get pricing. Anyone else who might be interested, please post on the list and I’ll get back to you. — Fred Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C Landfall 38) --

Re: Stus-List little A&H hatches on a LF38

Patrick — there should also be two small routed areas where the hinges are “let in” to the edge of the lens; one is longer that the other to allow for the spring that pushes the hatch open when you undog it. I specifically ordered these WITHOUT any of the holes drilled; just because of the issu

Re: Stus-List little A&H hatches on a LF38

Paul — that looks pretty nasty; and those lenses don’t look like they’re original to me. The hinges have two holes for bolts; it looks like the one on the left of your photo cracked across those two holes. I have no clue where the other one came from, with one large bolt through it, unless it

Re: Stus-List little A&H hatches on a LF38

Paul — they must have changed them at some point. See the photos I took when I changed these out in 2005: http://www.postaudio.net/webserver/lf38hatches.html Another good reason I didn’t drill out the holes when I had the lenses fabricated

Re: Stus-List Rot in non-structural bulkhead - thoughts?

Patrick — from what I can see in your photos, I wouldn’t be surprised if the battery (or a previous one) had something to do with the rot. The discoloration and deterioration of the wood could have come from acid leak or outgassing of hydrogen sulfide from a battery being overcharged. Your bes

Re: Stus-List little A&H hatches on a LF38

I just heard back from the acrylics place — they want $65 each for the lenses for the small galley/head hatches on the LF38. These would come precut, but not predrilled for the hinge and latch castings; you’d need to do those yourself, due to differences in the hatches. These same hatches are

Re: Stus-List How to attach a rigid boom vang on LF38

Patrick — I scratched my head on that one for a little while, too; but I finally realized that the mainsheet does NOT need to follow the boom all the way to the mast. I have two fiddle blocks attached to the bottom of the boom to spread the mainsheet load from the fiddle block on the traveler.

Re: Stus-List How to attach a rigid boom vang on LF38

Patrick — I basically replaced two blocks, each with a roughly 90-degree lead (at the mast/boom gooseneck, and at the mast partners), with a single block with about a 150-degree lead at the deck collar. With enough purchase at the boom for the sheet (in my case, 4:1), I just need to overcome th

Re: Stus-List Welcome to a great resource! [was "Lines led forward"]

To those who aren’t aware, I believe Chuck worked at Edson in years past; and been a great resource for technically-related steering issues on our old boats. In fact, every customer-service related call I’ve made to Edson over the years (and I believe Chuck has been involved in more than one…)

Re: Stus-List Stus List - Raymarine Combo on sale again

I can match that through the end of the year (barely). It’s a hell of a price. Keep in mind that if you’re going to mast-mount the dome, you’ll need the mount, as well as a 10-meter radar extension cable; those will total about $400.00 additional. Also, I just got an email from Raymarine abou

Allen — I have to admit to having absolutely NO experience with the Raytec RNS software. It’s Windoze only, and I’m a Mac guy. There are so many planning software tools out there, both free and not, that it’s about impossible to keep track any more. But OpenCPN gets a lot of good press. — Fr

Jon -- especially given your last name (!), I'd suggest you try Rolly Tasker Sails in Thailand. They've given me a quote of $1400 delivered for a 135 headsail for my LF38; and their quality is supposed to be very high. www.rollytasker.com -- Fred Frederick G Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis

Re: Stus-List Stus List - Raymarine Combo on sale again

Danny — the e Series has what Raymarine calls Hybrid Touch, where you have a touchscreen along with hard controls to manage the MFD. The a Series is touchscreen ONLY; there are no hard controls with the exception of the on/off switch. All the Raymarine MFDs should work with the same set of tab

Re: Stus-List Stus List - Raymarine Combo on sale again

Sure! The eS Series is the newest MFD from Raymarine, and is basically an updated, more powerful version of the e Series, with both touchscreen and hard controls. I would definitely recommend the eS over the e if you’re looking to buy today, particularly at the 7” size where there’s not much d
