That's pretty much backwards, Dwight. Canada was CCY until the Rhode Island plant opened. All Canadian boats after that were ZCC, and all Rhode Island boats were CCY.  ZCC was NEVER used in the U.S. These manufacturers codes are assigned by the government. C&C did not have any say in them. The Rhode Island Plant opened in 1976. That is why your boat is a CCY. 35's built after the Rhode Island plant opened, were all built in Canada but had the ZCC code.

Right,now I remember more: it was just that C&C gave the Rhode Island plant the ZCC desigantion when it opened in 1974 and the NOL plant got CCY, so my 35 MKII, hull 242, which was built in 02/74 got CCY in its serial numeber because it was apparently built a matter of day(s) after the RI palnt opened in Feb 1974 and got the ZCC designation.

My 35 MKII hull serial number is: CCY 352420274

Despite the never-ending confusion over how the numbering system works, no (none) 35's were ever built in Rhode Island. You would need the molds for that, and they were always in Canada. The numbering system really isn't that complicated, but people seem to go crazy trying to figure it out anyway. :-)

That was solved earlier, apparently the RI plant was opened in Feb 1974 right in the middle of the 35 MKII production run: I can’t remember who but someone on this list explained that and what was previously the NOL letters became the RI letters in the ser. no. or something like that, so some of the 147 35 MKII's appear to have been built in Canada and some in the US
