Mark;
>From earlier discussions on the various C&C lists over the years, it seems that C&C built a lot of rudders with stainless rudder shafts and mild steel webs - and that a lot of these rudders had weep holes in them so they could dry out over the winter. It looks like the two spots might be opposite each other, so they might be purpose made weep holes. When I replaced the rudder on my 38 in early 2011 (shaft problem, the web was OK after 35 years), the new rudder from Foss Foam in Florida cost about $2600 including shipping to NC, and I provided a stainless rudder shaft for use in making the rudder.

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.

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#.UeRy1Y 226So 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.
