Hi Eric and Lee,
I would also like to see what Eric has done. I was thinking of doing something
like this to my MkII. It would certainly make access to the rear area a lot
easier.
As far as water getting into the rear quarter it might be getting in via the
little wood/plastic panel that sits

Hi All,
I am on a drilling platform about 100 miles west of Hurricane Michael right now
and continuing to move at a whopping 3.5 knots SW to evade it. The hurricane is
supposed to pass by us tonight about 1AM. Currently winds are 20-30 knots and
seas are 10-12’, big rollers. Temp 80’s. No rain

I have a C 35 MK2 down in Victoria but I actually live in Alberta. I try to

Congratulations Kevin!!
I also have a ’74 C MKII it is located in Victoria BC. I have been down to

Hi All,
I have a Volvo Penta 2003 in my C 35 and I developed a leak in the flow line
that screws into the injector. Diesel is leaking ( spurting) out between the

they robust? Can they be removed/replaced? The only outlet

Here is an old photo showing a keel bolt about 6-8” from the mast. Is your’s
like this? Is there another bolt under that mast?
I am hoping to try to avoid pulling the mast as that opens a whole can of worms
of things I should/could do while the mast is down.

I was talking to Dennis and he has a Mk I version and he told me that his does
not have a keel bolt under his mast. Does anybody know the answer to this? I
would rather not have to pull the mast to tighten the bolts.
Hi Paul
My boat is a C 35 and it is Mithrandir. I think the previous owner bought
another boat and called it Mithrandir II. I think they kept the boat up in

The temperature started off in the -20’sC and should warm up to -15C here in
Alberta with brilliant sunshine and no wind. We got 1-2” of fresh snow last
night so the cross country trails are in perfect shape. If you can’t sail might
as well ski!!

Yes!! this is why i am asking. So far the keel bolts look good i.e. no water
leaking around them.
Sailing on the peg has got to be about as close to offshore as you can get!!

I blasted out to Victoria to escape the frigid Alberta cold for a week or so.
So I thought a little biking and messing around in the bilge would be fun. The
water in the bilge was a bit salty and the mild steel plates below the keel
bolts were badly corroded so I replaced some of the plates
