Yes, always contain the smoke. Things always tend to stop working when you let
the smoke out!

I had my Navtec pump and back stay cylinder rebuilt at Florida Rigging in St
Petersburg a couple of years ago. I live in Fort Walton and couldn't find
anyone close by to do it. They were easy to work with, and did a great job.

My 40 has a 1 1/4 inch, t track mounted on the side of the boom with a
Schaefer Jiffy reef slide/bail that slides up and down the track so you can
position the clew attachment point for multiple mainsail reef points. The
reefing line goes through a hook that you use to select which reefing
cringle
Rather than plumb in a couple of check valves or another thru hull, why don't
you just get a small automatic pump and pump the forward bilge into the rear
bilge. Let the big bilge pump do all the heavy lifting..

Chris,
A few things. First, I've never seen a switch in the negative battery leads.
Not sure what that's all about but as long as it's set to ALL, it's probably
not hurting anything.
Second, you might try checking the battery charger fuses. The Truecharge has
two 15 amp fuses under the wiri
I can tell you for sure the tanks in my 1980 C&C 40 are the 5060 on page 31.
Several years ago I ordered a special unit like the 5060 that was only 30
inches long (so now only 20 gallons) to make room for an air conditioning unit.
It was a piece of cake. It fit perfectly on the bunks and does
I ordered mine directly from Kracor, and even paid for a custom length.

I had the same problem on my 1980 C&C 40. Zern Rigging in Pensacola, FL has a
machine shop, and they retipped the spreader ends. They are beefier now than
stock, and will probably outlive the boat. He went through all the possible

Dennis,
If you need it back quicker, you could send it to SECO South in St Pete,
727-536-1924. They are a Navtec certified repair house and they usually
have the seal kits in house. I had mine done there a couple of years ago.
I think it was a little over $300 including the seal kit.

David,
I repowered with a Yanmar 3YM30 a few of years ago and still have the old
starting handle for the 3QM30, which is not compatible with the new engine.
Contact me off line and we'll figure out how to get it to you.

Sludge in the tank definitely has to go, but I had an interesting situation one
time that may be relevant to the engine stopping problem.
One time while motor sailing on a starboard tack, trying to get back to port
before a nasty squall line came in, the engine quit without warning. I had a

Reading all the threads on shaft misalignment, clearly the vertical shaft
misalignment needs to be addressed. However, I had an experience many years
ago on Thorfinn regarding lateral strut misalignment that seemed relevant to
some of the threads. While I had the boat in the boatyard for a bottom

I have four of the large Merriman snatch blocks on my boat. Over the years,
all the center shafts have failed at some point. The little screw that hold

for less than 5 bucks, get a 3/8" x 3 1/2" stainless bolt, w

On my 40-2, the mast sits in a mast shoe, really a box made of 1/4"
aluminum, that has two keel bolts attached through it (one directly under
the mast itself). I had a small 12 AWG wire that connected the mast to th
