Hello all,
Below is the text from a post I made earlier this year regarding the caps for
C&C water tanks:
After striking out at our local RV store and online searches, I called Kracor
tanks. They told me in no uncertain terms they only work with boat
manufacturers, not individuals. They tried to tell me to call C&C. Finally I
got connected with someone back in the shop who directed me to:
Claires Marine Outfitters2921 SW 2nd Ave,
Fort Lauderdale, FL 33315(954) 523-4301
They had them in stock, $10 apiece plus shipping.
You may want to make a note of this if you think you'll need a cap someday.
As it turns out the lip on one of my caps is bent up, and as a result the cap
itself is leaking through a crack. Thus the need for the replacement.
By the way, I took the advice of getting x type o-rings, and for about $10 I
got a package of 10. They work great and seal much better than the original
gasket/o-rings. I got them through McMaster Carr.
Thanks everyone for the help,
Bruce Whitmore

I had to replace these on a C&C 30 Mk II a few years ago. It was a 1986 but I
believe C&C had the same tank manufacturer forever. The company name was
embossed faintly on the screw on port caps which I then used to Google search
and source new ones (which were very inexpensive by the way). If my memory
serves me (less so anymore) the name was Krakor? I can look on my boat this

The domestic fresh water tank (I assume original) on my 1981 C&C 34 has two
ports in the top with screw in covers with 3.5" diameter threads. The covers
have degraded to the point that they no longer thread in (the plastic has
shrunk - probably due to a chemical used by the previous owner or perhaps just
time and heat. The outer threads seem to be in good shape but I have been
unable to find a replacement port cover of the same size. Any suggestions on
there on where to find these covers so I don't need to cut the whole thing out
and install new plate assemblies?
