I replaced the Beckson plastic with a cast aluminum from Atkins and Hoyle, the original C&C supplier. Looks, good, opens easily and fit in the head like a glove.

We were only 2-3 miles from a marina, with the wind behind us so we sailed up to the dock, borrowed a pipe wrench, took the elbow off and were on our way. We now carry a small pipe wrench with us as diving on the boat in 500 feet of rather cold BC (Canada) water was not alot of fun! (and in this case did not resolve the issue). We did try running several flexable things down through the elbow/seacock, but these items also seemed to go around the dead fish as well ...

I was wondering if anyone knew of someone that already had the patterns and you could just order the frame and plexi? Also, is there a mod whereby you can make the port an OPENING porthole instead of a fixed portlight? The projects to clean up Gabriela are officially underway. Thanks for any suggestions.

I had to recut the openings but that was not very difficult once I found the correct jigsaw blade. No leaks, replacement parts readily available, and they open now!, I'm very pleased with the result.

I have a large strainer inside, but only find a bit of grass in it now and then. I empty it every 3 or 4 years, but it has never been an issue. Jake Jake Brodersen C&C 35 Mk-III Midnight Mistress Hampton VA cid:[email protected] From: CnC-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of kelly petew Sent: Wednesday, August 14, 2013 11:07 AM To: cnc-list Subject: Stus-List Engine Thru-Hull Strainer Here on the Chesapeake, sea nettles abound for most of the summer, and they are a constant threat to my engine water intake. This is particularly true when I am getting ready to leave the dock. On my 30MKII, the engine intake is completely "naked", i.e., no protection against drawing in a sea nettle, or any kind of debris. There's simply a small orifice directly into the marelon seacock. It's not unusual to find debris in the onboard strainer. I am considering installing a bronze strainer to mitigate the risk. I would appreciate any feedback on what, if anything, others have done to address this problem. Thanks, Pete W.

It was a mess and not fun to clean but from inside the boat it was a lot dryer and faster then diving below. The strainer on the A/C is a fine mess and no where near the same open (1/4" holes) design as the engine strainer. The a/c water pump was still pushing out a trickle.
