Baltic 39, nice boat, but a long way down that companion way ladder. Do the C&C 39s have the same transverse "hallway" at the foreward end of the aft compartment?

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 Jack Fitzgerald C&C 39TM HONEY US12788 _______________________________________________ This List is provided by the C&C Photo Album http://www.cncphotoalbum.com CnC-List@cnc-list.com
