Stus-List Quadrant cable tension

CNC listers, I am installing a Raymarine under deck autopilot for my 1989 C&C 35 MK3. The process required removing the quadrant and steering cables. Does anybody know how tight the quadrant cables should be? Is there a rule of thumb for tension or a specific guide? Thank you. AL H. Pacif

Going on about 7 years ago, we ended up bending our rudder stock through a combination of a dark night, distraction and other circumstances I care not to discuss in public.  In the end, a new rudder was fabricated by Foss Foam out of Florida.  It was noticeably lighter than the previous version,

Thanks John. It seems there is an error at sailboatdata.com regarding the 34 being a Bruce King design. It's interesting, because I wouldn't have noticed except someone from an Ericson list pointed me toward one, mentioning that it was a BK design. As I like both BK and RB/C&C designs, it doesn't r
