*I *admit it, my choice of the venerable C&C 39 was based primarily on appearances. While the old C&C 33 sold in more numbers and the 35 is considered a classic, there is no denying it: *The C&C 39 is one of the prettiest fiberglass boats ever built.* Although the 39 was in production for only three years, 1972 to 1974, and less than 50 boats were produced, the 39 has a loyal following and has not only retained its value, it has also retained a lofty perch among the cult of connoisseurs of eary '70s boats. Designed by Cuthbertson and Cassian, the original manufacturer's brochure brilliantly proclaimed, /"The C&C 39 was designed to win races by going fast!"./ Though there is no doubt that the 39 was build with the IOR rule in mind, she was not a rule-spawned hydrid. /Windquest,/ hull No. 2, took two firsts, one second and two thirds for first overall in the 1972 SORC, and later that year took third in class in the Newport-Bermuda Race and was the first boat to finish under 40 feet. However, winning races was just a bonus for owning a boat that courts compliments at every encounter
