-- I use my boat for racing and for cruising. It is a very comfortable boat for cruising, and a very competitive racer. I race it on the Columbia River, and on the ocean along the coast of Washington and down the straits of Juan de Fuca. One summer I cruised for three months in the Puget sound

So Richard Can you ascertain what exactly is squeaking?? In looking at the other comments to this thread, they covered the major components, so suggest you recruit a willing?? crew to slowly turn the wheel while you are carefully listening to each component. In our case, the wheel turns

I replace the ignition module with one from Sure Marine and it works perfectly. The module is not an exact replacement, but works fine. Perhaps, I am anal, but my philosophy is that if something on the boat doesn't work it should be removed or fixed. Gary S/V Kaylarah '90 C 37+ East Greenwich,

I purchased a 35 mk3 last year. I had reached the point that I was only looking at 35 mk3's. They are notorious PHRF beaters and decent for cruising. Though not as good for cruising as a cruising boat nor as competitive as a hardcore racer, it's a great racer cruiser for those willing to

Congrats on the C 35 MK3. I own a 1984 MK3, am in 1st place in our Wednesday night racing series and enjoy the boat immensely. It's a pleasure to sail. My wife, the boss doesn't race and would like to have more of a "cruiser". So although this will be a very hard decision for me I may be

Well, we went to Charlevoix to look at the 1981 C 32. Not the boat for us. Interior has not been taken care of. Buckets under the portlights to catch the leaks, forward hatch so crazed that it looks like it might break with a big rain drop, floor so bad that it was mushy in front the mast

If the steering chain isn’t centered, the chain to wire joint can contact the sheave wheel at full steering lock, but generally not in both directions. That isn’t a good sound to hear. If you pull the sheave axles and they are brass or bronze, don’t ask, just replace. They will go bad..

Richard, Make sure to use a non-petroleum based lubricant for the bearings that support the wheel shaft (such as Superlube or other Teflon based grease). Don’t squirt WD-40 or any light weight spray lubricant into the grease holes as it will tend to flush any lube out of the nylon caged

Is it an Edson pedestal? If so, there are two places to squeeze in grease under the compass. If you look on YouTube there are Edson videos on replacing the bearings and they show the grease points. I just did the bearing replacement on my current boat. Joel On Thu, Aug 24, 2017 at 9:34 AM,
