Burt, I’m not sure what model C&C you have but the bolts on my 37’ are two sizes, with the smaller one (keel bolt) directly under the mast. I’m fairly certain that two different torque values may be called for. I haven’t even measured them yet but tomorrow I start building a cradle/support in a

The 3/4 inch one is still a keel bolt, and a ground point. The keel is thinner there and probably has a sloping leading edge so that bolt is smaller as there is less keel for it to be buried in. You really do need to know the diameter of your keel bolts to answer the question about torque value.
