Owning an old 35 MK I, I wouldn't say the old boats were indestructible
tanks like an Out Island. The build weight of a 35 was supposed to be 10,500
pounds, which was kind of light for a 35 foot boat back in the day. I will
say the boat has held up for 40 years of now of some very heavy use, so
obviously the boat is strong enough. The hull does work in a heavy sea -
unlike many newer boats a lot of the internal structure is kind of floating
in the liner and doesn't really reinforce the boat. The keel attachment with
the stub keel the lead bolts to IS a lot better than a lot of newer boats.
It isn't as fast though as a narrow piece of lead bolted straight to the
hull.

Hi Chuck,

 

The schedule was different for the 37+ (& XL). The XL was built with the 37+
schedule unless you specifically ordered the R schedule.  For example, I
have the build file for hull #72 and the sales order shows the owner paid
$4,000.00 extra for the "37R Laminate Hull & Deck" in his build.

 

Don't forget the laminate wasn't just "1 oz chop and 1 oz mat", it also had
two layers of C72K/100 Kevlar Fabmat, one layer inside the balsa and one out
above the waterline.

 

Below the waterline the layup was one layer 1 oz. chop, one layer 1 oz. mat
and one layer of C77K/200 Kevlar Fabmat outside the balsa and one layer of
C72K/100 Fabmat inside.  This Fabmat is much heavier than the 1 oz. chop and
1 oz. mat at about 2.47 oz. for the C72K/100 and 4.94 oz. for the C77K/200.

 

The layup was much heavier at the turn of the bilge across the (almost) flat
bottom of the hull to the keel sump as an additional two layers of C77/200
Kevlar Fabmat were added and further, in the keel sump, the balsa was
replaced with two layers of Compositex.

Ken, That's interesting.  1 oz chop and 1 oz mat seem ridiculously light.
Doesn't say how many layers of each?   Was the schedule different for the
plus?  the XL?

FWIW, I'm holding the 4" circle I cut from the deck when I installed solar
fans on my 34R.  The piece measures 1/32 shy of 1" thick, and I can see the
many layers of glass, with two separate layers of kevlar with their yellow
fuzzy ends.  The balsa is 3/4", outer glass layer w gel coat is 5/32", and
interior layer is 3/32" thick approximately.

>From the factory drawings, the Laminate Schedule for the 1990 C&C 37 R was:

C&C 37R Laminate, Hydrex resin used for the entire laminate.

Topsides (total thickness 1.16")

1. Gelcoat

2. 1.0 oz. Chop

3. 1.0 oz. Mat

4. C72K/100 Kevlar Fabmat

5. 1" Aircraft Balsa Core

6. C72K/100 Kevlar Fabmat

 

Bottom (total thickness 1.20")

1. Gelcoat

2. 1.0 oz. Chop

3. 1.0 oz. Mat

4. C77K/200 Kevlar Fabmat

5. 1" Aircraft Balsa Core

6. C72K/100 Kevlar Fabmat

 

I imagine the 34R would have bee about the same.

The 37+ was a bit thicker, both topsides and bottom.

The new hulls are stiff but they hole through a lot easier than the hull of
an older C&C which has solid glass reinforced polyester...Once saw a power
boat in slow reverse with the ss swim ladder supports pointing aft...go too
close to a 34R and there was a hole through the hull...rather easy to
puncture I thought

Not really sure how the hulls are weaker.  They are not made with solid
polyester based resin layup though.  The C&C 99 is laid up using Epoxy
not polyester so in many respects could be considered stronger .. Or if
not stronger than certainly lighter for the equivalent amount of
strength?

Speaking of Beneteaus.  The Beneteau 367 sails well for racing and has a
huge interior for entertaining or cruising.  Is priced about the same as
a C&C99 on the used market

The 99 has a weaker hull than the C&C boats? Right
