All,
I was very interested reading about going keyless for your engine's
ignition. Certainly makes sense - It's getting the battery switch on that is
the real hurdle for stealing a boat. It's very easy to get to the back of an
engine panel and just connect the wires.
Plus when
Coquina never had an ignition switch. Push button start from 1973 to 2013 :)

Hi Edd,
On a previous boat I used the industrial AB momentary pushbutton
switches. Red for glow plugs & green for starter (go!). They had a
waterproof cover over the pushbutton.

I am looking to purchase new sails for the C&C 1985 33-2. I do a little bit
of cruising and some club racing. I need recommendations on what kinda of
sails get the best results without going broke. Also, I am looking for
recommendations on either a Lazy Jack System or Dutchman. What works
better
I am looking to replace my port windows on my C&C 1985 33-2. Since there
is no cross ventilation my thought was to replace the plexi glass and
insert a aluminum window within the plexi glass or replace the plexiglass
with an aluminum window. Also, where would i find the replacement

Hi Ray,
I've raced with quite a few lazy jack systems and they're okay
because you can tuck them out of they way, abaft the mast. Having
never sailed with the Dutchman, I believe it will disturb laminar
flow across the mainsail a bit.

No reason. It is done all the time. They will work just fine. I have

There brightness will vary considerably from running on ship battery power
(12V) to running off the engine alternator(14.5V) but all the lights
onboard are like that now anyway, unless they are quality, v
Nope, can't think of a reason it wouldn't work. Easy enough to test.

I like the idea of using a switch, but would there be an issue if
someone "forgot" to turn it off when the DC power is on, i.e, any
risk of damage to the electrical system or other potential
hazards? With the key, forgetting is much less likely for anyone with CRS.

We purchased a spray can of Teflon grease from the local hardware store -
works just fine. Would suggest sticking to the Teflon as any other type
will eventually build up and or harden causing all kinds of mischief with
the bearings

Hi Tom,
I have forgotten the "switch on" a few times. You will lose a few
amps to alternator field current and that's about it. In my case I
can get a reminder thump from my electric fuel pump impulse (once in
awhile) if I'm paying attention.
Edson recommends SuperLube as "or equivalent". T
Wow, just realized it's been 10 years since I lubed the Edson gear and chain
inside the pedestal. That's when I installed new chain and cable.
I do wipe the cable a few times a season with a light weight oil on a rag, and
lube the turning blocks underneath the pedestal.
Just a thought:

Hi John,
I did it last September. Replaced the 1988 Wilcox with a Jabsco household bowl.
On my 38-3, there is no bolt under the toilet floor. It is solid wood under the
fiberglass, and those fasteners are wood screw studs with a round head nuts.
I had to switch the pump mechanism to the left
Thanks Pierre,
That simplifies it a whole bunch.

Hi John,

It does mean that while running them with the engine on (or a battery
charger running) they will run hot - so they won't last as long as their
designed life at 12v. Which probably is not a problem given the number
of running hours on a boat.

Hi Josh,
Based on the well documented report of your rudder repair, I decided to
tackle this job myself for my 34+ which has the same rudder shape as yours.
You mentioned 4 lbs. foam -- is this 4 lb./cubic ft. density? I have the
skin removed from one side and the old saturated foam removed. The

Instead of rebuilding the head, investigate replacing the entire pump assembly
and the joker valve. If the bowl is in good shape and you can find the correct
pump assembly, this might be a very viable option.
If you choose to replace the head, I suspect stainless hex head lag screws will
Glad to hear I was able to help. Steve used heaters and fans for almost a
week to dry mine. He also sand boasted the remnants of foam out. The way
he described the foam it is able to withstand 4 pound per square inch.
Don't forget to re-encapsulate the shaft and welds. Also don't forget to

Starbrite Teflon grease is $10.99 for a 4 oz bottle at West Marine. It is
labeled as PTEF trailer hitch lubricant, in case you have trouble locating
it. Works great for the bearings if you are rebuilding the pedestal.
And BTW, the ½ oz tube of grease that comes in the Edson rebuild kits has

Bicycle chain lube would work great for the gear and chain in a pedestal. It is
designed to get into the pins and lubricate the chain, and you are right that
it is resistant to moisture (don’t know about salt water though) and doesn’t
