My guess/assumption is that any battery cables on a boat that have the
old style automotive lead clamps are old cables that may not even be
proper marine tinned cables. Lots of wiring on old boats, including C&C,
was not tinned wire and needs to be replaced, even if it hasn't
failed... yet.

Steve,
I agree with Fred. Rather than dealing with the clamping lug adapters
and clamping lugs on you cables, it is much better to use proper sized
eyelets lugs. It may actually cost you less to convert the cables,
and likely lead to less troubles down the road. An other advantage is
that one can easily add an affordable MRBF terminal fuse block right
on the battery (ABYC compliant).
