Stus-List Martec Folding Prop

Dave, Had my Martec rebuilt last year before we headed to the Bahamas. Folks at Martec were easy to deal with. Had/have the only one blade deploying issue primarily when I failed to stop/slow sufficiently before putting in forward (ie sailing @ under 3 knots = time for iron genny) Couldn't kick it

Stus-List Old Boat Leaks

Steve, FWIW I am constantly amazed how much water comes down inside the mast. My mast boot is fine. On my boat there is plastic tubing that drains the mast step into a container (bottom of cut off plastic jug - like the large gal container for 2 cycle oil) that fits nicely between the stringers a

Stus-List Anyone remove the helm seat?

Joel Helm seat is out on my boat. Can't imagine having it in as it is so tight behind wheel. Have a huge (44"?) wheel that allows easy steering from the sides (though is a PIA to get around). So I will either stand behind wheel or sit on either coaming feet on seats. You can sit/lean behind the

Re: Stus-List Thoughts on repowering with outboard

I have had both. FWIW I would never go back to Outboard. My Catalina 27 had a 15hp and was pretty well designed for it. Transom had a cut out in the middle and the motor simply tilted up into this cut out- no bracket. There was room on either side for a 5 gal gas can. There was enough power(note th

Stus-List I guess no sailing this weekend

Sunny and mid-80's here. Only ice in gin and tonics. Scrubbed the bottom last weekend (year2, Slime only, Trinidad SR). Just threw a can of diesel in. Will be sailing along the beach this weekend. Wind SSE at 12. Kim Brown TrustMe!!! 35-3 ___ Ema

Stus-List Impeller

A first time. Found a missing impeller vane on my 3QM30. The whole damn vane. Suggestions before I start tearing the who damned cooling system apart? Its a raw water cooled engine with a Sen-Dur retro-fit. Thanks in advance. David F. Risch C & C 40-2 (401) 419-4650 (cell) David I got l

Stus-List Towing, Insurance, etc.

Andrew I use TowBoatUS and am on the Caloosahatchee though down river - they are fine. Only had to use once in 25 yrs so they are way ahead on $ but the peace of mind when there is a problem is worth it to me. Usually they have a boat or two out and about though I am guessing Alva is not in their

Stus-List Flag Etiquette - Past Commodore's Flag

Flag etiquette is clear in our club- Flag officers receive a flag with either one (rear) two (vice) or three (commodore) 'bare feet'. Same graphic that is on the club burgee. http://www.cmcs-sail.org Toes up if you are the current flag officer; toes down if you are a past officer. Kim Brown Trus

Stus-List New Engine

Tim I would go with the remanufactured 3gmf30. This assumes you are comfortable with the vendor. The 3gmxxx seems to be about right for the boat and it should be a drop in replacement. That is what is in my 35-3. I believe the new yanmars flipped sides for everything so oil filter, exhaust etc is

Stus-List Racing rules at marks

David Agreed you are entitled to room- at least enough for a seamanlike rounding - Another way to look at it is that you had an overlap - probably well outside of the zone. Draw a line perpendicular across his stern and your whole boat was likely in front because of the very different angles hi

Stus-List suspect autopilot

All, The weekend's project is to trace down the dead autopilot. Looking for ideas about likely suspects to prioritize the process. Standard Raymarine Wheelpilot- X5? Been working great for years. Chugging up the river trying to beat the rain last Sunday after a weekend out and it died. Actual sym

Stus-List suspect autopilot- RD II

Per the crowd view I disconnected the motor and turned things on and the control heads and other instruments came up fine. Connection seemed fine without corrosion. Put a meter to the motor lead and hit auto and then a course change. Volts came out and nothing popped. Reconnected the lead to the m

Stus-List 1984 C&C 35 MIII

David, I have an '87 35-3 CB and am on the gulf coast of FL. Spent 3 weeks in Abacos last summer without draft issues. Great boat. That said the real issue on a 30 year old boat is how it has been maintained for 30 years. I got lucky. Kim Brown TrustMe!!! 35-3

Stus-List Mast Self-Climbers

Edd I have the ATN version of the mast climber and find it works fine. A taut line to climb on is important. I find coming down is actually harder than going up- you are tempted to take too big a step. Had the MastMate web ladder on the last boat and it works but I found the steps uncomfortably fa

Stus-List Diving your own boat

Put me in the DIY bottom cleaning group my diver retired and headed for the islands on his boat. I either use a tank on the dock with a hose to standard regulator. It is shallow enough that I can use the bottom for leverage. I use a shortie if the water temp is under 80. (AC in the house just kic
