Don, I have replaced both the shifter and the throttle cable on my C&C33ii. (Edson pedestal) Disconnecting the cable from the levers is probably the easiest part of the job. The two big issues I ran into were: 1. The cables are strapped to the rear of the pedestal via a special clamp. If you have

The 30-1 and 35-1 suffer from the same issue and the fix is pretty similar. I did mine in 1995 I think and it wasn’t real expensive in $$, but it was a lot of time with a chisel getting semi-rotted wood out. I still don’t get why C&C did such a bad job with this, doing it the right way at build

Re: Stus-List 30-1 Mast Step Support Rebuild Project Write-Up

The $1 solution was sealing the hole and the $20 solution was having the mast step span the gap so the wood was not acting like a bridge over the bilge with weight in the center. My new ½” aluminum plate over the new wood spans the width of the bilge and does try and bend the wood. Joe Coquina

Re: Stus-List Replacing shifter cable - but

Hi Thanks to comments on replacing shifter cable. The catch is I'm not sure the binnacle is an Edson. The shifters are not mounted in the side of the binnacle and the cables do not run up and down inside the binnacle. Rather they run up through the binnacle support/protector stainless tubes.

Re: Stus-List Replacing shifter cable - but

Don — that’s most likely the older Edson system, with the narrower riser tube on the pedestal; Chuck Gilchrest will know the model number (301?). That’s a completely different animal, and something I don’t think Edson has sold for 35 years or more. The system was in place on my LF38 when I bou

I replaced the cable on my 1977 C&C 27 which sounds like the same setup.  There is a small screw on the tube that holds the shifter cable bracket.  If memory serves, once you remove the screw you can lift the cable or push it up from below, and the pull the cotter pin. Feel free to call if you w
