Yes, I had noticed that rusty spot on
the rudder.
I've never had to deal with something like that in the past -
anyone have ideas on cost? I'm assuming rust means the inner frame
will be shot and it is not "fixable".
Never seem rails attached like that to the cockpit seats/lids -
not sure how that makes for a comfortable seat even with cushions.
Boat does have a few options with radar, chartplotter, autopilot
etc - but sails are old (1996 according to the listing) -- figure
that is a $7000 hit if they need replacing
I'm guessing original winches, non-self tailing.
Worth a look. See the size and space
Thanks for the comments about depth issues, you and Scott.

Hi Mark
Budget for a new rudder - the weeping out the sides of it are a
clear sign. A good survey would find that - heck, a bad survey
better find that. Also the wiring looks a bit amateur in the
shot from inside looking aft. What is with the rails attached
to the cockpit locker lids? It also doesn't look like the lines
are led aft (small winch farm next to the mast, visible in one
pic)
The heater is a nice option though!
With regards the depth, we draw 6'5" per box specs (probably an
inch or two more with all the crap I'm dragging around) and have
not had issues.

C&C 35-III #11

I'm setting up an appointment to go look at a C&C 33
tomorrow. A few of the boats I've been watching have sold or
have dropped off the market (presumably not getting near the
asking prices).
This C&C is local - Broker says it "needs an interior
refresh" but is a "super deal" - not that I'm going to allow
that to define my opinion.
You can see the listing at
http://www.yachtworld.com/boats/1981/C%26C-33-2555288/Halifax/Canada#.UeRy1Y226So
This is a special C&C 33 Mk I. Built for
and by the then C&C Rhode Island Plant Manager Barry
Carroll, the boat has features not found in any other
C&C 33.
- Taller than standard double spreader rig
- Custom Doug Peterson style lead keel and ellipical
shaped rudder
- Many custom teak wood trim and finish appointments below
Take a look at the Full Specs for the complete
story.
Has an Atomic 4 inboard - which after discussions on this list
and elsewhere I'm less concerned about. Don't plan long
distance motoring anyway.
Any thoughts from Nova Scotia sailors on having a 6 ft 2in
draft? I know we have lots of depth in the harbour - but the
point of getting a bigger boat is to start touring around a
little gunkholing.
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark
