Hi Mac, and welcome.

Did you properly rename her?

Melody & I used this resource for renaming Sweet. It seems First Love was not an acceptable name to keep for the boat in her current lifestyle.

Hello All,

I have a 1983 C&C 37 that I purchased 2 years ago from RCR yachts in Buffalo. It was named IMPACT and prior to that it was named FREEDOM SONG. I have named it WORTHY PEARL. I sail it on Lake Ontario out of Etobicoke Yacht Club. Prior to this boat I had a Niagara 26 WAVE WALKER that I sailed for 31 years. My son has taken ownership of it now.

I am still getting used to her but I think the boat sails extremely well. I have made a number of changes to the running rigging, having everything coming back to the cockpit. I sail mainly short handed and do a lot of single handed racing. My goal this year is to do the Lake Ontario 300 single handed with spinnaker.

The biggest change I am making over the winter is moving the traveler from the cabin top to the cockpit. I found that the mid boom sheeting could not trim the main properly. With a loose footed main, the boom would bend and not tighten the leach. I will let you all know if it works. I will keep the original traveler on the cabin top just in case.
