I have had so many of those rule pumps fail on me, I went to a pair of gusher
diaphragm pumps, mounted up high and dry, with hoses to the bilge. I ran a
rule float switch to one which failed that first year. Now I have sea choice
float switch that has been working for 2 seasons, going on 3.
Anybody do a retrofit from cable to solenoid? I looked in to it but feared
complications and wasted money?

I have a CC30 MK1 with a throttle on the right and a shift on my left on
the Edison pedestal. straight up and down motion on them both.
Any Idea what cable I would use to replace the shift cable?
thanks Curtis

All this is good advice. The thing I'm finding not so good is that, while we
all faithfully install tinned marine wire in hopes of staving off corrosion,
equipment and bilge pump makers still frequently use untinned copper wire that
is very prone to corrosion. Shame!

A good rule of thumb is to max out the RPMs when you're under way. Note the
number. About 75% of that is a good cruising RPM but many people will go a
little lower. IE if you max out at 3200 RPM, then 2400 would be fine, but I
would probably run at 2200 to conserve fuel. Running at max for brief
Maybe no problem for the diesel with higher rpm but everything connected to
it also sees the higher rpm.I like to find the rpm sweet spot where
everything seems to be running smoth with low vibration, go a hundred rpm
higher or lower and things will vibrate more on Alianna.actually there seems

I understand about sweet spots, but I'd say if you are getting that much

I had a Rule automatic pump where the water level is determined by
impellers' resistance to turning or motor load. Mine ran 24/7 because the
bilge crud would foul the impeller and create enough resistance to fool it
into permanently sensing water in the bilge. Cleaning the Impeller /
flushing
That was going to be the plan if I did not get a confident answer.
I just didn't want to down the boat too long.

The cable is pretty easy to measure. The one end is hooked to the shift lever
and the other to the transmission. You can follow the old one and get your
length. It is (as was said) a Morse cable and is available at many boat stores.
It is threaded at each end - you take the ends off the old and
Not always. Harmonics on a 30 year boat need the sweet spot.

My even bigger problem (after working hard getting the top plate off as

I have an M35B in Imzadi. Max RPM is 3000 for that engine. IIRC the max torque

Your engine will thank you if you use it regularly and with significant load.

Or go to your reputable auto parts store with the old cable. A Teledyne cable

Hi Edd,
I hear 2750 is the sweet spot for an engine w 3600 max RPM
I just ran three days to get my boat from AC to Magothy River, Md. My M4-30
liked 2750 for the first day running at max, 195 degrees. Diesels like to run
hot and run loaded. They start carboning up if they are loaded less than

I am told my Beta 25 can run up to 3600 but I reach hull speed at ~ 3200 so
running it higher is pointless--the speed is fixed by the combination
of rpm/transmission ratio/prop size/LWL. It is loud enough at 3200!

I once had a dream I was commanding a small square rigged cargo brig thru
waterways of Copenhagen, with buildings on both sides and we used topsails only
to manuver a few turns in about 10 knots of wind. There were no wires because
it was the early 1800's. Great fun moving past buildings at 5
Edd,
This will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, as well as the specific
model. My Yanmar tops out at 3600 rpm. Yanmar recommends running them at
up to 85% of their continuous rating. My max continuous is 3400, so I run
mine about 2900. That's how I get to Screwpile every year. 13
Nate,
Centek makes some nice fiberglass adapters. They are available in many boat
stores online. They should have one that will do the job. The fiberglass will
weigh less than galvanized pipe. It’s sure to help make your boat faster!

Those extra rpm's make a difference
when being hit head-on by waves, or even chop. The added ability
to accelerate faster back up to hull speed will make your average
speed over time faster, even though you won't be exceeding hull
speed. How fast you recover
Yanmar 3HM35F 30hp @3200 rpm continuous. 3400rpm for 1hour. 3600rpm max.
My manual says to avoid extended operation at high vibation rpm. The
Idle/shift/minimum rpm spec is 800. The Kanzaki transmission is required
to be shifted less than 1000rpm.
