Eric has the same model as I do.so I figured our boats would be similar but as we know C&C did not build all boats of the same model exactly the same in all respects Dwight Veinot C&C 35 MKII, Alianna Head of St. Margaret's Bay, NS _____ From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Chuck S Sent: January 13, 2013 8:42 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Adjusting wire tension in Edson steering systems Dwight, That's probably true for yours. Our 1990 34R has a quadrant on the rudder post and lives under a section of Cockpit floor that lifts out. The cable is terminated with an eybolt captured by a thimbled eye and three cable saddles. The two SS eyebolts are pushed through the quadrant casting and double nutted. The cable goes around the outer edge of the quadrant and thru a slot in the back edge and underneath. The eyebolts penetrate holes in the casting so the adjustment is made on top very easily. I try to follow Edson's maintenance recomendations.

Where do I take up the tension in this wire? Can it be done from the top of the pedestal with the compass removed, or do I need to adjust the wires directly, groping around under the cockpit from the port cockpit locker? The Edson EB381Steering Guide describes the installation and says to adjust the tension, but doesn't appear to say how this is done.
