My 37+ came with a fresh water regulator mounted in the stbd lazaret but it was clear that it had been disconnected year ago. I believe that the PO had made arrangements to fill the tanks from this connection as well as supply the fixtures. I removed most of the vestigial fittings, pipes, tubes a

Edd, My 34 came to me with a proper connection fitting installed in the cockpit wall . . . . Systems like that are very common in RV's so you should have no problem finding the needed parts . . . . . They are a bit scary on a boat of course, since you can visualize how a hook up like that could

Edd My PO never used the tanks and just used a hose hookup next to the electric hook up under the hump. I figured it was a standard connection on our boats.. guess not. I tried connecting a hose to it to see if it worked, but never got it working. So, I guess my answer is, no idea. Tom B

Edd, During Touche's initial refurbishment 20 years ago, I installed a dock water inlet. I've never used it for reasons stated in other replies. I would never leave it active if I was not on the boat. To answer your question, I added a tee in the line going to the cockpit shower and installed t

Shawn Yes, the traveler is still on the aft edge of the bridgedeck.  Of note, I still have not added traveler tackle system (blocks/jam cleats) because of trying to figure out how to remove the old traveler to get new cars mounted.  Instead we rig a line to the traveler/mainsheet shackle and

Pete, What I called the destroyed #3 was a jib-top (high cut clew, about 120%, on the boat we called it "#3 reacher") It had limited use off the wind and we only used in on very long reaches, which only occur in off-shore racing.  Also had a tall boy that came with the boat (1980), used it for

Hi Edd, Unless you're thinking of living on the boat, I would recommend against an active connection of water to the boat.  We find that even if we stay on the boat for a week, we can stretch our use to not draw down the tanks. This is even including taking showers on the boat. I have some co

Listers, Has anyone ever installed some kind of fresh-water connection on their C&C to use a dock’s fresh water system instead of the water tanks? And, if so, how did you do it? Just curious about a possible future project…. All the best, Edd Edd M. Schillay __

Alianna, my 35 MKII is setup up similar to Fireball with the high aspect ratio mainsail, ie shorter boom and she has a similar compliment of sails, mostly all Sobstad including a very light 162 percent genny and 2 spinnakers a staysail and a blooper. Nowadays most of those sails stay in dry storage
