Bruce, For what its worth, I had my steering cable break in a squall. I was 50 miles civilization but maybe 5-10 miles from a sheltered cove. I could not have steered long with the emergency tiller and there was no way to get parts. The cable was loose and rode up on the quadrant wheel cutting it.You have to remove the steering wheel and use all your strength to steer with the emergency tiller. Not much fun in those conditions!
Anyway what I did was cut the spare genoa halyard wire with a hack saw to repair it and right or wrong it is still working 8 years later. The wire for your boat is only 7 feet long on each side. I used the rest of the wire for spare cable and replaced my halyard with rope. Check your wire often! Your C&C is the easiest to maintain and repair. You don't have to crawl under the cockpit!
