Neil,
Ha! You have answered my question. I am an idiot! For some reason, I was
thinking that a ton is 1000 lbs.
Too much metric, I guess
Thanks!

Rob,
I bought a Rocna 15 (33 lb) for my 35-1, which weighs (reportedly)
10,500 lb, and it works great. Looking at the Rocna chart for 33'/8,700
lb, (10m, <4t) the 22lb is the recommended size. Looks to me like
you're in the right size range.

My C&C 30 MKII displaces about 8,700 lbs unladen. I just replaced my 33lb Bruce
with a 22lb Rocna.
The question is: Am I an idiot?
The Rocna sizing chart suggests a 15kg (33lb) anchor for my displacement, but
the website goes on and on about how conservative their ratings are. It looks

I think he means the injection elbow where the water enters the exhaust
stream. The high heat in this area can cause clogs of salt and soot. They
are easy to remove, clean, and replace.

Word of caution.only open the ends of your heat exchanger if you
have 'new seals' to replace the old ones that might not survive the
operation.

Yup. The exhaust elbow would be my first guess, especially if you have not
cleaned it in 700 engine hours. Impeller would be my second guess.

I had the same problem and it turned out to be the crossover elbow,
changed it and the problem went away. You can get a kit with all new bolts and
gaskets from oldport marine in Newport RI. (Yanmar 3gm30) I hear it is a
common thing. It was easy to do.
In light winds you may have to smack the foot of the sail lightly to get it to
belly out.

Richard,
The Edison web site may have cable tension information that would work as a
guideline.
A few months back a cnc-lister mentioned finding significant corrosion damage
to the aluminum backing plates at the point the cable turning blocks were
attached. If you notice the cables loosing te
If all else checks-out it could be load related as well. If your prop has
variable pitch it may have gone to an over-pitch situation. I've also
heard that a very dirty hull can increase drag enough to overload the
engine / make it run hot.
Good luck with it.

Richard,
When I tightened my steering cables, I tightened them to almost remove all
slop in the wheel. but not so tight to put a strain on anything. I now have
about 1/2 to 3/4 inch play in the wheel.

I just completed building my lazy jacks (literally 2 days ago), so all the
info is top of mind.
I used the Guy Stevens article as my main reference:

I used 250' of 3/16" XLE Performer double braid (tan). I have about 30-60'
leftover.
Hi all, in getting ready for spring I noticed some slack in my steering cables
in the area between the quadrant and the sheaves which turn the cable up into
the helm; the play is about 1/2 to 3/4 inch; is there a norm or a standard rule
of thumb for how much, if any flex, or looseness is consi
If you follow the recommendation you will be using the house bank for starting

one option is to attach the top lines to the spreaders, some 5-10 cm off the
mast. This way the lines don’t interfere (or interfere less) with raising the
sail.
Btw. you need plenty of line for the lazy jacks. Much more than you think (at
least, what I thought). 100 ft. may not be enough.

Roughly above the first spreader. I would look at the designs from EZ Jax and

Hi All,
C&C 33 - 1 with two sets of lowers: forward and aft. They attach at two
attachment points on the mast, one slightly higher than the other and both
just below the spreaders. Do the forward lowers attach at the highest
point or the one 2 inches lower?
Thanks!

My 35 MKII has a block set (4:1 advantage) inside the boom with 3/8 inch

If this is anything like the 115 it is likely already run to a winch as well.

Maybe one or two blades of the pump's impeller are worn off so that the pump
supplies enough cooling water up to a point. I would check the impeller next.
