I solo mine 38 quite a bit and agree with Rich, except that it takes a lot
more pulls on the main halyard.

I sail mine solo often. I have the main halyard and mainsail adjustment and
reefing lines led to the cockpit so there is little reason to race around
the deck. I find that if I do things in an orderly way, sailing a 38 footer
is no harder than sailing my old 22 footer.

Hi,
I am think about upgrading to a larger vessel in the near future. I
currently sail my C&C 29 as a weekend cruiser almost every weekend except
for a few miserable summer weekends. But I also like to do some gulf
sailing ranging from the FL Panhandle to the Keys.
I am currently fancying the early 1980's vintage C&C 38 Landfall. From
what I have read and have seen these are wonderful boats. Now I enjoy
sailing my 29 single handed which is about half the time I sail. To
those who know the 38 well, can they be sailed reasonable solo?
Thanks for any advise.
