Okay,I had to chime in as I've decided on insurance. I got quote from BoatUS
of $728 and a quote from Heritage Marine Insurance for $387. Heritage
specializes in Old Yacht, namely old wooden yachts it seems. The coverage is
better too. Boat US - Vessel and Equipment $19,400 - Liability $300,000
Another perspective on boat insurance: I have a 29 mk1 which I purchased
this spring. It's a $10k boat in excellent condition and also in Long
Island sound. BoatUS quoted me $550 or so per year for coverage. I use
Geico for my auto insurance and asked them for a quote as well. They

Nice!

The 35 MK I tiller fits more or less like the boat was designed for tiller
steering. It could stand to be about 18 inches longer and have a hinge.
Steering effort is quite high because you have to spin the wheel along with
turning the rudder. I really don’t know how it would be with the steering
Had to cut two inches off our emergency tiller so it would clear the pedestal
spindle. I expect it will need a rope tied to the handle tip to gain enough
leverage to control it, so two inches isn't a big change. I try to keep my
steering cable and pulleys well lubed so I never need it.

The rudder post on the 39 is in front of the wheel and has amazingly easy
access. No need top remove anything, just make sure that the ET tiller is
long enough..

No, we changed out in 2005 to the new elliptical rudder. My boat was under
warranty when we purchased her in Nov of 1975 and C&C sent me a "new
style" deeper rudder to replace the original in June of 1976, I had only to
return the boat's original unit at my expense. The "new style" rud
Now that's a reason to reconsider a wheel pilot!

We immediately switched to under-deck autopilot for the next 10 hours. Sailed
into St George with tiller with reduced wind and seas. Wasn't that bad as
long as the boat was balanced.
Docking under power on the other hand was a b*tch. Used my hips to push the

There was a recent thread on whether BoatUS was worth the extra money they

Boat US insurance, or ACE. There are several others who know boats, I am
sure others will chime in with their suggestions. This Agent obviously
doesn't know much about sailboats.
Did this boat used to reside in Bay City? Where are you?

That said, they're trying to make sure it is loose bolts and NOT the fiberglass

Hi List,
I just bought a C&C 37.
Everything I read tells me the C&C smile is just how it goes, and I've
seen the cosmetic repair section here. Keel bolts look beautiful.
The inspector told me verbally that it's perfectly fine.
But in his written survey, he added this CYA material:

My boat is fair bit larger than the 35 and the ET is only 40" long, it can

a 35 I with the ET as yes. it is easier even with the wheel still attached.

Before I had an autopilot I used to use my emergency tiller whenever it rained
because I could sit up under the dodger. It was fairly high effort because of
having to turn the wheel along with the rudder, but I don't recall it being
hard enough to need any kind "rigging". I did wish the tiller w
And also it is a good idea to attach/tape an inexpensive open end key to the
emergency tiller in case you have to install it fast ( 9/16 on my 27 ).

Greetings,
We were sailing Sunday and heard all of this event unfold on VHF 16. The
saddest comment I heard was when the owner/skipper stated, "...my wife has gone

Very sad.

includes 2 keyways ).
Also, a problem I had on mine when I bought it: The bronze shafts of the
