I know we'd all vote for our own boat....... but the 38-40's models had, for me, the most attractive lines and proportions of he whole fleet.... I sail one of the 38MKII's built in Bruckman's yard #125.....get more complements on that boat still after 36 years . Majestic Blue (recent)..original deck color..Stearns tapered mast/boom (same color as the deck) all make it just right....

Personally, I like the 35 Mk II because I own one and she is a sweet sailor and much better looking than the newer boats (IMHO). I've sailed on a C&C 121 (flame retardant suit on) and she is a rocket ship. Very nice!

The 35 mk-1 was the boat that really built the company... and still has the best sheer. IMHO She feels like a much bigger boat than she is, when sailing.

The 27 Mk 1 but then I'm prejudiced, having spent many many happy hours cruising with my old dad on his. I'd put the 39 on there, even though she had more of a racing layout; what a joy to sail and look at that boat! The 30 mk1, because of its longevity...and similarity to the 27 I think the 35 Mk 3 should be on there, too, not that I have any experience with the boat, beyond looking at them during the search that resulted in acquiring Peregrine.

The reason for your choice would also be of interest.
