Sweet answer Bill but: C&C 35 MKII production ended in 1975 yet there are some that carry the ZCC designation and some that carry the CCY designation. With what you wrote they should all be CCY because the RI plant was not even opened when their production run ended. If the RI plant opened in 1976 at the time C&C Canada started using ZCC designation then how did 35 MKII's built in 1975 get that ZCC designation.
You seem to be the source on this and I want to put what you wrote in my owners manual but first could you please explain that for me. -----Original Message----- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Bill Bina Sent: November 28, 2013 7:29 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Hull numbers for other 35 MkII boats - Call Me??? ZCC has never been used in the U.S. at any time for any C&C boat. The sequence is very simple. C&C Canada was CCY until the U.S Plant went into operation. At that moment, C&C Canada became ZCC and the U.S plant was assigned CCY. The U.S plant went into operation February 1976. So, in short, all boats that have ZCC are Canadian without exception, and were made after February 1976. Boats with CCY were built in Canada only until February 1976. From February 1976 onward, any boat that has CCY is a Rhode Island Boat, and any boat withh ZCC was built in Canada after February 1976. That is the beginning, middle and end of the story. Please write it down in your owners manual for the next time this comes up on the list. :-) Someone brought up Calder Industries, which NOW has CCY assigned to it as a manufacturers code. It has NO connection to C&C, and did not build any C&C boats. Completely unrelated and unimportant to us. These numbers are assigned to companies by governments. When a company goes out of business as C&C did, the manufacturer code may eventually be reassigned just like a old telephone number.
