Couldn't resist, took half a coffee, but here is the industrial equivalent
stuff. Search on modular pipe fittings, or structural pipe fittings, or
slip on pipe fittings.

Hi,
I’m in the first year of owning a 1980 C&C 30 Mk1, (- love the boat -)
and I have a couple questions that I am hoping some of you may be able to help
me with - thanks in advance.
First - mast wedges
The boat came with about 3 or 4 wooden wedges about 1” x 2” x 4” that

Hi,
Mast wedges - On my 29-2, there are 6 wooden wedges that go around the entire
perimeter of the mast and fit inside the collar. They are made with a lip that
sits on top of the collar so they can't fall in. They need to be hammered in
and out since they fit quite snug. They are covered with
Welcome aboard. Nice boat ;-)
I have tried a few things for the mast wedges. Last year I purchased a small
roll of heavy rubber floor mat
from Princess Auto ( was on a bulk roll, cut a minimum 1' off ). I cut it into
two pads since I have a hold down
clamp on both sides. They are a snug fit cove
My 1980 version (#593) has six wedges at the partners. They are about 1 1/2
inches square and have a taper on one side which is about 3/4 inch at the
bottom and stops half way up where it is about 1/2 inch in from the side. -

Thanks for all the replies, you guys are awesome! This cover has been on for 8

Kover Klamps after some more research with the links supplied. They are 5$ each
and can be retrofit with the tarp in place. I may be incor

It seems that it is no longer water repellant and reapplying the waterproofing

The mast wedges on my 1976 38 mk2 are intended to be put in from the top of the
mast collar I believe. At least that is the way that they have been installed
since I bought the boat in 2003. The wedges are about the dimensions that you
cite, but have a "lip" about 1/2" tall that sticks u
I'm happy with my Helly Hansen gear. I sail all year round, and in the
ocean. The jacket is fleece lined and you can buy a separate fleece
sweater that zips in for additional warmth. You can also use the fleece
sweater by itself. I've had this outfit for more than ten years.

Hi Kevin, welcome, and nice choice of boat :)
Regarding mast wedges, I had the same issue. Boat came with a variety of wooden
mast wedges that fell out all season. So this offseason I bought a dozen of the

) after m

I've had a Helly Hansen inshore coat for the past 12 years since Helly

Kevin:
My 34 (former boat) and 42 (current boat) both had mast wedges when I
purchased them. I promptly got rid of them and made a spartite plug (both
at the partners and in the mast step box). Very secure. Makes me less

IMHO the chokes are used to begin establishing rake when setting the main mast.

All the majors make similar decent foulies. They all fall apart after
several years left on a boat in hot weather.
My opinions:
I have two conflicting opinions.
Opinion 1: If you are going to take them off the boat after each use, then
don't buy LESS than you need. That is, if you are primaril
