I also have a 35mkII and I know for a fact that there were never 4 thru hulls.
Mine aft ones were always teed to the forward ones. The aft ones always held
water as the hoses went straight down and looped back up over the partial
bulkheads before connecting to the forward ones. I recently improv
Many races also have specific requirements around the size of scuppers vs.
cockpit volume.

And the 35 MK1 has a very low companionway/bridge deck but lots of volume
to fill with water below decks. I could be about knee deep in water in the

Be interesting to plug them, fill the cockpit with a few inches of water
and see how fast they drain. I'm guessing marine architects have
guidelines for how big the flow area for scuppers has to be for a certain
area of cockpit. ABYC may even have such a guide.
My point is if there were original

Same here. The aft cockpit valves were removed and the aft scuppers
were T'ed to the forward valves. When I was getting the bottom of the
boat ready for paint I could make out the where they had been. It was
most likely done at the factory as /Fireball/ was campaigned by C&C in

On my C&C 35 MKII the after cockpit drain seacocks have been removed. The
hoses for the aft cockpit drains cross over and exit into the forward
cockpit drain seacocks.

Hi Don,
I have a 1974 C&C 35-II with the same drain plan. I’ve sailed in >34kts in
Puget Sound (I didn’t look after that) and some puffs were around 50 - reported
by other cruising boats, returning from the same raft-up. I should have had
the third reef in, but had my hands full by then. Dep
