At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I suggest contacting South
Shore Yachts in Niagara-on-the-Lake. Not only did it acquire a lot of C&C
parts and information after the original company went bankrupt, it was (and
may still be) a Navtec agent. I bought the original C&C "build file" for my
34 from South Shore, which was possible because South Shore acquired all of
C&C's old records. When I replaced the stays on that boat, South Shore made
the replacements, including the "new" (at the time) heads and fittings for
the mast. Rob MacLachlan can likely answer your questions.

My newly acquired 1980 CNC 36 had the heads cut off of the intermediate
shrouds. In trying to get them re-headed I discovered I'm missing 1 ball
from under the cap. The through bolt needs replacing as well as possibly the
caps. Question is, did Navtec go to a different option because of the
dissimilar metals issue? Suggestions please?

Steve, Make sure that you take a good look at the knees which the shroud
and back stay chain plates attach. These are a known weak spot on boats
of our vintage. About 9 years ago the tabbing on one of mine started
separating. I was fortunate that I found it before a catastrophic
failure.
About every 2-3 years I find that I have to snug up on some of the toe
rail fasteners. Generally a 1 flat turn re-seals.
Sail safe,

Regarding recurring water in the bilge: I am busy going over everything
on my newly acquired 1980 CNC 36. My mast is off pending repairs to the
rigging. I have checked and double checked water tanks (2), water lines,
and keel bolts. No water coming from them or any of the 7 through hull
fittings. After using a shop vac to remove any trace of water in the
bilge I return the next day and continue to find about 1/2 gallon of
water in the bilge. I am now convinced that it is coming back from the
manual bilge hose which outputs through a Y connection on the bilge pump
output hose. I evacuated that tonight. We’ll see in the morning. If I
find any, it will be either salt or bleach. That should help narrow it
down, as I have bleach in the water tanks. The holding tank is empty.
Good thing for the taste test!

Hello listers,
In December I finalized the purchase of my first keelboat, a C&C 35 Mk
I, after receiving an extremely thorough and detailed list of items to
survey from Joe Della Barba. Joe, thanks again for your help!
The previous owner of the boat was a local racing legend who ran a
marina near Glen Island, NY. He had been giving me advice on readying
the boat for her new life on a mooring after spending the last four
decades in a slip adjacent to his houseboat. Unfortunately, he passed
away last weekend.
One of the questions I had yet to broach was the accumulation of water
in the bilge. The boat has been on the hard, shrinkwrapped, for three
years. I've been pumping the bilge dry every two-four weeks, and it
seems to be about 2-4 gallons of water as measured by a big plastic
bucket. I'm not sure where the water is coming from. Apart from the
bilge, water is pooling in the forward-most storage compartment under
the port settee. My first instinct is to have a friend on deck hold the
screws on the toerails and stanchion bases while I slightly tighten the
nuts below deck and see if the water ingress stops. Does that make
sense? Is there a different, better course of action I should take at
this time? Does anyone know offhand what size socket I'll need?
Thanks in advance,
Tom
