Matt,
I found one of the original backup (I think it was original, a piece of
plywood inside the hull and a mushroom type thru hull) was actually
loose when I bought the boat, so I replaced them all but the two drains
from the aft cockpit. Those have been on my list for years, someday
I'll take the fuel tank out to get access.
The ones I replaced I used a ring of about 6" diameter of 1/2" thick
fiberglass with a hole for the thru-hull epoxied to the inside of the
hull, then put bronze flat head screws from the outside thru the
fiberglass ring to hold the flange of the new thru-hull. Maybe it was
overkill but I don't worry about them now.
I pretty much followed this:

I just looked and see that the thru hulls in the stern of the cockpit
of my C&C 35 Mk I need to be replaced/rebedded. I plan on using 4200,
but my question is how difficult a job is this one. Thanks.

Wade,
If you're referring to the vacuum gauge and fitting Joe linked to, I
suspect the male thread goes into the bottom of the gauge.
If you're referring to the Racor T-Handle set up, here's a link to
Touche's Racor 500 with an older style Racor vacuum gauge.

Hi Joe
Looking at the guage you've linked to, its obvious the "T" arms go
in the fuel line between the Racor and engine. Where does the
threaded base of the T go? What is a normal pressure? What
pressure reading makes you decide to change filters? Are the
lined just clamped with small hose clamps or what?

A vacuum gauge is one of the best cost/benefit ratio
improvements you can do. You can save a lot of $$$ in unneeded
filter changes and get advanced warning when you do need to
change one.
