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 want to talk it through.

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 bought her; I’ve since replaced the entire pedestal, as I wanted the different control scheme and also needed to fit a wheel pilot (something you couldn’t do on the four-tube system). — Fred Fred Street -- Minneapolis S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C Landfall 38) -- on the hard in Bayfield, WI :^( On Dec 11, 2017, at 9:54 AM, DON JONSSON via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: 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. There are four supports on this boat, two fore and two aft of the binnacle. The cables run up the aft tubes, one on either side. Does anyone have experience with this set up? Where is the clamp that is holding the cable? ThanksDon
