There have been a couple of threads here on "dimples" on the topsides of
the earlier models, in particular the 32's. My 35-1 had dimples at the
braces for the upper shrouds. It also had a slight pattern of roving
showing also. I sanded these blemishes out when I had the topsides
repainted.
Anchovy has no tangs.

To your point about hydraulic backstay adjusters - when last boat shopping I
learned to sight along the topsides and look for hull buckling in the area of
the shrouds - some was quite pronounced. This was an issue with several late
‘60s/early 70s boats I looked at, and there seemed to be a

Nope, the halyards are run to blocks on the ring around the base of the mast,
then to the winches (originally) on the dorade boxes. And the 30-1 has the
tangs.

My 30-1 is a '73 with lower numbers than Gary's and the halyards run from a
turning block in the mast directly to the winches.
I have no tangs in the mast, nor do I have any holes where they might have been
attached. I don't believe my boat came with the tangs originally for this
reason.

Hi Glen
I believe on C 30-1 the halyards are run at the mast not at the cockpit in
factory configuration. Therefore no pulling upward on deck by halyard
tensioning at mast collar
Just my
Bill has it right . . . . . The shrouds and mast compression are the worry . . .
On serious race boats (without a bulkhead at the mast) we had a vertical rod
beside the mast and even a diagonal strut from the mast step to the shrouds to
counteract the load.
I can’t remember the original 35 in

I don’t have any hangers on my C 35 Mk I.
Yes, unless your 35 has been modified, the upward loads on the 35-1 are
carried by the mast. The halyards exited the mast via a turning sheave and
ran horizontal to the deck. The turning blocks in the mast carried the
upward loading.
Now, if you or a previous owner modified the running rigging

David,
When the boat is sailing and heels over the shrouds and mast combination try
really hard to squeeze the two sides of the boat together and the deck to lift
up (off). It is

The two SS straps are your 'mast tangs'.they are very importantthey
keep your deck from lifting from the upward pull of halyards connected to
your mast collar. They should be bolted to your mast just as you step your
mast before

Ken explained it well. FYI, I had the same straps on my 1978 34.

Yes, absolutely, they should have a bolt passing through them and through
the mast. One long bolt is fine, washers and a self locking nut work
well, the bolt doesn't have to be tight, just not loose. If you find the

Hi
Wonder if I have the mast set-up correctly. There are two staniless steel
straps hanging down port & starboard of the mast. They are bolted to the
thru-deck fitting, are about 10 inches long and a bolt hole in the bottom end
almost aligns with holes in the mast. Purpose and should the
