Re: Stus-List new Raymarine Lighthouse II sailing features

I have the hard copy from US sailing, but not sure how to translate it into the appropriate format. Jake Jake Brodersen "Midnight Mistress" C&C 35 Mk-III Hampton VA From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Frederick G Street via CnC-List Sent: Thursday

Re: Stus-List 35-3 polars

Jim, That’s what they look like. I also have some older, tabular format polars. They look ancient. Jake Jake Brodersen “Midnight Mistress” C&C 35 Mk-III Hampton VA From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Jim Watts via CnC-List Sent: Friday, Ma

Re: Stus-List Sheaves for 35 MK1

Kyle, Garhauer makes some nice stuff. Their sheaves have bearings. I replaced one this spring. They are low friction. Jake Jake Brodersen “Midnight Mistress” C&C 35 Mk-III Hampton VA From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Kyle Mello via CnC-

Re: Stus-List rig tuning

Josh, The leeward shrouds should be visibly loose when going upwind in about 10-12 kts true. You may see a little side-to-side movement, but they shouldn't be rattling around like crazy either. I had the North rigging shop tune my rig after it went back in the boat last month. I will let

Re: Stus-List Keel Bolt problem 35-3

Scott, The originals are aluminum. For what reason, I can't imagine. Low cost and easy to machine. When we R&R'd the keel, the yard made new ones from stainless. It's the only way to go. Jake Jake Brodersen "Midnight Mistress" C&C 35 Mk-III Hampton VA From: CnC-List [ma

Re: Stus-List Heat exchanger problem

Dave, Is the gasket new? I doubt that a used gasket would seal in this situation. It has been crushed under heat and pressure. It probably has taken a set that keeps it from sealing properly. Jake Jake Brodersen "Midnight Mistress" C&C 35 Mk-III Hampton VA From: CnC-List

Re: Stus-List Impeller Damn...

David, The seals and bearings on the raw water pump are replaceable. It is certainly cheaper than a new pump. Jake Jake Brodersen "Midnight Mistress" C&C 35 Mk-III Hampton VA From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of David via CnC-List Sent: Monday

Rick, I use Torresen Marine, but they are probably available from any Yanmar dealer or Mack Boring. Jake Jake Brodersen “Midnight Mistress” C&C 35 Mk-III Hampton VA From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Rick Rohwer via CnC-List Sent: Tuesday,

Re: Stus-List Are original LF38 thru hulls in contact with coring?

Patrick, I replaced the thru-hull for my knot meter this year. The hull is solid glass in that area, although I still gave it a coating of West epoxy to be extra sure. I also coated the plywood backing plate with epoxy. It wasn’t deteriorated, but it will last longer this way. Jake

Re: Stus-List Darker Smoke, Harder to Start

Fred, I run synthetic diesel oil in my Suburban, but not in my Yanmar. The last I read from Yanmar was to continue using conventional oil. I prefer Rotella T 15W-40. Good stuff! Jake From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Fred Hazzard via CnC-List Sent:
