Not from BC area, but in a midwestern 20kt wind I had my daughter in law (non-sailor) on board and granddaughter (4yr old). We had full main and 135 on and still had the rail out of the water. Both were comfortable and the grandchild was running back and forth along the rail having a ball.Believe me, it's hard to make it heel. Before the 135, the PO had a 150 mule (75% of hoist) as his heavy air sail. It worked well, but it was brutal to haul in. I changed to a 135 for ease of tacking.RonWild CheriC&C 30STL

To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Date: Monday, March 4, 2013, 12:26 AM Hi Folks, So we are considering upgrading to a C&C30 Mk1 from our little 24. One the things I want to make sure of before we go and spend vast sums of money (to us at least) is whether my wife is going to feel comfortable on it. She's not a big fan of heeling, and although I told her the 30 is way stiffer than our little 24, won't heel as much or as quickly etc, she doesn't seem to believe me. I was wondering therefore if there were any local Mk1 30' owners that might be willing to take us out for an afternoon one weekend? We'd be happy to rent/pay for your time, either monetary or a few bottles/cases of something. Anyway, long-shot but it never hurts to ask. Cheers, Paul.
