Josh: Yes - thinking about alternating current if I go with a holding plate

I purchased a 1985 35-III about three years ago, and one of the initial
upgrades was refrigeration. I wanted cold beer for my crew and I whenever we

Sam,
After reading other's posts it appears to me that there may have been some
confusion. The "AC system" to which you referred is an alternating current
system for refrigerating food not an Air Conditioning system, correct?
The air cooling you referred to was instead of a keel cooler or water
Thanks, everyone! I'll keep it all in mind and let you know what I end up
doing.
To clarify, I was considering an AC (as opposed to DC) holding plate
refrigeration system if it's going to run off shore power anyway. No need
for air conditioning here in SF, thankfully.
In terms of just using ice
Welcome to the group. You seem to be considering your options wisely.
Systems relying on shorepower seem to be the most common way to go. You could
probably run refrigeration off of batteries, but AC needs more amps to start
the compressor and lying at anchor will eventually require a good sized

Hi everyone,
I'm new here. I recently purchased the 1984 C&C 35 mk III Spanish Dancer.

I just posted some information about replacing the DC motor in a wheel
autopilot. The motor in my SPX-5 recently died. I purchased the same motor
which Raymarine uses for $6.95, installed it, and it’s working.

Enivous about equador, and you living in BC and skiing anywhere but BC.
On another note, I think I have given up on skiing in Whistler so it’s all
yours! I think they have finally hit my personal affordability index with $119
for a tow ticket. Explains why you are skiing in Colorado!

When I replaced my leaking aluminum tank I used a plastic tank, luckily
it's translucent enough that now I can just look at the tank and see the

First, the vent on Touche' overflows before the fill so not quite the same
configuration as others. I place an absorbent pad under the vent just in
case.
Touche's fuel gauge is fairly accurate but does peg out at "F" a bit before
the tank is topped off. I do two things to avoid overflow.
Method
Same for me. Listen and look. My crew (especially the Admiral) thinks its
funny I need silence when filling the tank.

This explains why I never get any fuel dripping out of the vent before the fill

I had the same setup on my 24. Scuppers led straight down to a through hull

I've had the same problem and it turned out that there was no anti-siphon
loop in the bilge pump lime to the transom. The water siphons back to the
pump and you can get a lot of water in that way. My floor board were
submerged in a 35 footer. Yikes!

When tabasco (c&c25 with an outboard) is on the dock, there is absolutely
no water coming in. When I am out, even motoring, I get some water in,
maybe 2 quarts an hour, even in calm seas.
I am in the process of replacing some rusty keel washers, but the nuts seem
to be tight and I have no "smile".
