Challenges - Things to Know
Pendragon has a one cylinder diesel so she needs extra throttle in neutral when pushing the start
button. Once started, run at 1500 RPM for a couple minutes to warm up engine. Also, underway
you may need extra throttle to get moving especially into a headwind.
Pendragon has quite a strong prop walk to port when in reverse. Be prepared to throttle down if the
boat is pulling sideways more than desired. Have a roving fender handy if necessary.
Use great care when easing the topping lift! If you accidentally let this cleat go the boom could
land on your sailing mate’s head and cause an injury! Ease slowly. Pendragon’s topping lift is found
at the mast with knots at adjustment points. See picture p. 24
Always ease the boom vang, main sheet and reefing lines before raising the main sail.
Don’t stand on the forward hatch as it is prone to breaking.

requirements, many times there are extra personal floatation devices stowed under the v-berth.
Know where and how many are onboard before you leave the dock.

auto/off/manual and is usually in the “auto” position. By turning on the manual switch you are
operating in a per time mode. After use do not leave “on” in manual position as the pump may
burn out if the bilge is dry. Switch back to auto to activate the float switch.

C&C 27’s INBOARD SYSTEMS
The Engine-Starting/Stopping/Operating
C&C 27s are powered by a Yanmar-1GM10 HP 1-cylinder inboard diesel engine. This is a great
engine and if cared for during your charter will serve you well. Always make sure the engine is
getting coolant, lubrication, and proper fuel by completing the checklist each day.
ALWAYS check the following before starting the engine:
- Raw water intake valve open and strainer clean
- Oil level-between high and low lines
- Transmission linkage operational (shifts between gears)
- Belt/hoses look connected
- Stuffing box/shaft coupling. Should drip 1 drop/30 seconds when running.
- Fuel level-should be at least half full.
Good to know where the following are located: Fuel shut off, raw water impeller access,
batteries, start-solenoid/starter, Spare engine parts/tools.
Pre-start Checklist
-Check fuel level-gauge located on the start panel cockpit aft. Make sure instruments
switches are on “1”at the DC panel.
-Only check oil level if you are on a multi-day charter. Make sure oil dipstick is
completely re-inserted to prevent oil leakage. Keep hand near dipstick hole as it is very
hard to locate! If level is too low or too high let SSC know!
-Make sure raw water intake valve is open, located forward of engine. (see pic below)
-Make sure raw water strainer is not clogged by shining flashlight through it –(To clean,
close raw water seacock then unscrew lid located forward of engine)
Stuffing Box (access thru starboard cockpit locker) Raw water strainer/ Raw water intake

The Engine-Starting/Stopping/Operating (cont.)
-The engine start and house battery selector knob is located port of the companionway.
Turn battery switch to “1” when starting, “All” when running, and “2” when sailing.
-Turn off and disconnect shore power from dock.
Starting the Engine
- Put shift lever in Neutral.
- Push the throttle lever forward about 2\3 of the way (see picture below)
- Pull silver knob for ignition switch.
- Push in the start button for about 5-10 seconds and engine should start : )
- Check to make sure water is flowing out the back while engine is running
Once Started
- Ensure smooth idle speed for warming up. (Approx. 1500 RPM see tachometer below) Run
engine for 5 minutes before putting in gear.
- After warming up the engine, bring the throttle down (vertical position)
- Test forward and reverse movement if safe to do so
Tachometer/fuel gauge/Start/ Pull switch/Stop handle/ Throttle/Gear Shift
Once Underway-When the Yanmar is warmed up, the maximum cruising speed is 2500 RPM.
Never run the engine too high as it will overheat, reduce your fuel consumption rate and not increase
your hull speed. Refuel if your tank is less than ¼ as you will get into the sludge at the bottom of the
tank and plug up filters. If at any time your engine alarm sounds, check for water coming out the exhaust
then STOP the engine. You may have run over something to plug up coolant or the water pump may not
be working properly. Check the strainer, then if nothing is obvious, call SSC. Of course raise sails and
get the boat in a safe maneuvering situation as needed!

The Engine-Starting/Stopping/Operating (cont.)
Stopping the engine
Place throttle in idle (vertical) position
Let the engine cool down for 2 minutes
Pull stop cord until engine stops which is located just starboard of the start panel.
When alarm sounds, push in silver pull switch last. Do not do this first or you may damage the
alternator!
Refueling- Only refuel if you charter overnight. C&C 27s have a 10 gallon diesel fuel tank and burn
approximately 3/4 gallon per hour (GPH). Estimate fuel needs before you begin fueling to anticipate amount
and not overfill. Some fuel gauges are not accurate so watch closely! The fuel deck plate is located stbd. aft.
Make sure you access the Diesel not Water deck plate! The fuel gauge is located on the engine start panel.
Tank is located under the stbd. cockpit.
NOTE: When filling the fuel tank, please fill slowly as this boat has a tendency to bubble up
quickly and before the tank is full. Vent is aft stbd. Double check the fuel gauge to ensure you
have filled the boat up completely but do not top off.
