Is there a method to test the condition of a diesel fill hose? Something
similar to wrapping a warm wet rag around an old sanitation hose? As diesel is
not as volatile as gas would guess hoses carrying diesel would last longer… ??
And it is not like the fuel was sitting in the hose as the ro
Hi Fred,
Right now am just installing the wind, speed and depth.
The wind vane package has a small white connections box with a connector bar
assuming this is for the mast cable to instrument connections. Are there
special connectors to crimp onto each lead in the cable or do you just strip
and
The small white junction box is if you need to cut the wire at the base of
the mast to allow the mast to be removed from the boat without pulling the
wind Sensor cable all the way back to the instrument. You don't need to
install the white box right away, you could leave a couple of loops in the

The engine and gear ratio, together with the engine power, are critical for any
propeller sizing.
When choosing an engine &/or propeller for your boat, it is important to
consider the effect of the gearbox ratio on the propeller. Most marine diesel
engines have a reduction gearbox, which makes t

Did you get this resolved? I actually have one I'm not using (as I
switched to tiller).

Replace your fuel fill hose. I hadn't thought about doing that until one
day when I was working in a locker, brushed up against the fuel fill hose
and noticed cracks. I replaced it immediately, and then went about
replacing all of my hoses.

I have a 1974 C&C 35 MKII that came with the standard C&C emergency
tiller which is almost useless because the rudder shaft exits the
cockpit sole aft of the steering pedestal resulting in very little
range of motion with the tiller handle. It would be almost impossible
to tack with that emergency
To bad they changed in on the Mk II, it has to be due to the different rudder
on the Mk II.
It works well on my 35 Mk I (I tested it to make sure it worked) but as you
noted it is in front of the steering column on the Mk I.
On the 29 Mk II (had one of those too) it is aft of the pedestal and
Paul — Ken is absolutely correct (as usual…) about the white wind vane cable
connection box. As far as other installation tips, you can daisy-chain the
instruments per the manual to share data across them. You will need to provide
a power connection on the SeaTalkNG bus to power them; and you
We use one of these on the wind cable to facilitate the removal of the mast
instead of the white box.

Rodney is correct, of course. But also consider that some C&C models come
with different gear ratios for the same boat. Get the ratio off the
gearbox name plate before ordering a prop. My PO didn't do that and I got
a boat with the wrong prop.

The only reason for water dripping is to lubricate (and cool) the seal/shaft
interface. However, the PTFE packing has low enough friction that you don't
need to lubricate. Hence, no need for dripping water.
Btw. the main difference between the normal shaft seal (regardless of packing)

Thank you for the reassurance I changed the packing myself (and with
mentor ship from a knowledgeable club member in the cockpit)the
packing is not compressed very much...in fact , when wraping the
packing, when I first put on 3 wraps I couldn't get the compression nut
on, too
Thanks
