Re: autopilot selection and installation I have a 35mkll that would not work with any of the wheel pilots so I had to go with an under deck installation. It is great... quiet unobtrusive and responsive. I went with the Raymarine because it was the most popular at the time. The installation

I have a C 35mkII 1974 hull #277 and sailed another one when they were new and worked at a C dealership as a teenager, at about the time they were built. They were delivered with a dinky tank, sandwiched between the hull and the bulkhead in the head compartment. It was a very unique

I love the looks of my beautiful Stainless Barient 28's on my C 35MkII, but am facing the reality that as I age, self tailing winches are becoming more of a necessity rather than a luxury... What have other owners found as the best replacement? I want to stay with stainless and fitting the
