Don, I have replaced both the shifter and the throttle cable on my C&C33ii. (Edson pedestal) Disconnecting the cable from the levers is probably the easiest part of the job. The two big issues I ran into were: 1. The cables are strapped to the rear of the pedestal via a special clamp. If you have an acorn nut about a foot down on the stern side of the pedestal, you have this clip. Removing it is easy; just remove the acorn nut and the bolt will slip inside the pedestal. However, reinstalling the clip is nearly impossible without removing the chain drive for the steering. 2. When I tried to reinsert the new cables through the deck, the ends would not pass through the hole, there was just no wiggle room below decks to allow the cables to be inserted. This meant dropping the sheave plate, removing the pedestal and making a larger hole in the deck for the cables to pass through. After that, it is just a matter of reassembling everything and ensuring that the cables are clear of the steering chain/cables.
The arrangement on your C&C34 may be a little different. Good luck. Mike Amirault C&C33ii Lovely Cruise SMSC
