I recently installed 3 new Raymarine ST 60+ Instruments in a binnacle I
built top of the seahood, (hatch garage) on my 33 mkII. This, of course
required running the wires between the headliner and the cabin top and then
out through the deck under the seahood. I looked at several different types
and makes of cable clams and all were to big. I found a Seachoice product,
#17901
(no photos on their web site but you can have a look at them on Jamestown
Distributors
website) that were low enough to keep the wiring clear of the sliding hatch.
I used two (two cables max in each, since the instruments required
four cables). I also built a u shaped fiberglass wire run and laminated it
to the
underside of the seahood also to keep the wiring clear of the sliding hatch.
I cut down the shaft of on the fittings and used a stainless lock nut
(thinner than a regular nut) rather than the plastic nut on the underside
of the deck, to gain the lowest possible profile, but I needed to use a
small (approx 2.5" X 3.5" hollowed out 1/2" block of starboard to cover the
hole in the headliner and clear the nuts and wires, because, of course you
have to install the nuts on the threaded tube of the fitting that comes
through the deck. Caulked it all up with Sika flex and there you go!
Instruments are all up in direct sight of the helm and out of the way from
potential damage on the aft bulkhead of the cabin. The hardest part was
filling in the holes where the old instruments were.

They are excellent, use them all the time, but they have to be installed
over the hole and then run the wires. I understood the challenge to be how
to seal the holes with the wires already run. Hence the goop suggestion.

If you can make a clean slit in the rubber bung to the hole you drill for
the wire size it will fit over the wire then seal nicely when compressed -
did that with the radar cable when it had a large plug installed on each
end. They work well. Cheers

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Listers,
Greetings from Clinton, CT. We had the Enterprise screaming along at a
steady Warp 7.3 today -- then the current kicked in and we saw Warp 8.5.
My wife Ellen and I wanted to take a moment to thank David Risch for all of
his hard work in putting this all together. In fact, he did such an amazing
job, we think David should be voted in to organize one of these every year
(a little closer to New York may be nice).
It was great to meet Rob Ball, especially at the reception, to ask him all
sorts of questions about the 37+, especially on how a 40-footer got named a
37+ (as well as the 36-foot 34+). But, just being at a place with others who
share the affinity for the C&C line made the trip worth it on its own.
Hope everyone has a safe, fun, voyage home. And, I'll say it again, let's do
this next year too.
In the meantime, as you continue on your voyages, please remember our Prime
Directive:
Wherever you may go, go boldly.
All the best,
Edd

One of the clutches on my 35/3 is shot. It is part of a triple on the
cabin top.
There is no name on it but it looks like a Garhauer. Its not spinlock
lewmar or easylock. Any other possibilities? I'd like to make the
replacement as painless as possible.

Hi Edd,
Great to see you make the bridge opening at Mystic this morning.
Did you notice the schooner Brilliant chasing you out? She's a beautiful S&S
design from the 30's and a favorite.
I toured the antique cars and a few small boat exhibits. I'll send you some
pictures. Left around 11 and got home at 4pm.
BTW, Nat Herreshoff's Alerion has had her brightwork varnished recently, and
she looks ready to launch. They're recaulking the deck on the Joeseph
Conrad.

Since it attachesd to the deck with fasteners and also uses fasteners to
compress the rubber bushing, one should be able to drill the holes in the
deck, dry fit it, then pull it up, cut a slot in both pieces and the rubber
bushing, slide the cable through the slots in all and fasten it to the deck
and compress it.

Hmmm. Since you have now cut a slot to fit the wires ino the base, the
rubber seal and the compression piece, it strikes me that there is not much
left in the way of waterproof integrity. Out comes the goop?

They are excellent, use them all the time, but they have to be installed
over the hole and then run the wires. I understood the challenge to be how
to seal the holes with the wires already run. Hence the goop suggestion.

Probably the wettest place on the boat when sailing in any kind of swell.

I may have it wrong but from the diagrams on the site, it looks like one
drills a hole in the deck (or uses one already there), puts the cable thru
all the
cable clam pieces and then tightens the screws provided.
This looks like it both compresses and seals the rubber gasket around the
cable and seals the device to the deck via the
provided flat rubber seal/washer.
Thus no water can get in via the cable/gasket path nor rubber seal/washer of
the device to the deck.
OTOH, never having seen the device "...in the flesh...", I could have it
wrong.
In any event, I am ordering one tomorrow and will soon find out!

Since it attachesd to the deck with fasteners and also uses fasteners to
compress the rubber bushing, one should be able to drill the holes in the
deck, dry fit it, then pull it up, cut a slot in both pieces and the rubber
bushing, slide the cable through the slots in all and fasten it to the deck
and compress it.

That's fine. Now what about the compression nut?

You are correct. However, unless I'm stunned, the original problem was how
to seal up a hole in the deck with the wires already installed. Maybe I'm
stunned.... Mmmm?
