Blue Horizon No. 1. 1981 C&C 36

 

I believe Dad said they paid $65,000 in October 1980 + $20,000 to outfit
with electronics and sails.  $12,000 of that was the Loran-C and the
radar.  The broker guaranteed that it would hold its value for at least
ten years and it did.

 

Current owners are Brian and Nancy Todd who we ski with.  Small world

The best info I have on Calypso's original invoice is from the USCG
"Abstract of Title".

 

In April of 1971 a mortgage of $110,000 was recorded.  I expect this
price included sails, instruments, and other commissioning costs.  The
boat was named "Arieto" and is hull #1 of the Limited Edition 43'
designs.  It was raced in the 1971 SORC as a C&C "factory" boat then
sold "off soundings" to the owner that campaigned the 43' "Arieto"
extensively up and down the US east coast.

 

Somewhere around 1975/76 the boat was listed for sale with a price of
$97,000, well equipped for racing but with high mileage.  From the USCG
abstract it appears that she was "traded in" to Palmer Johnson in
December 1976.  I have seen references to the original owner campaigning
a Frers 46 in the late 70's under the same name, "Arieto".

 

In 1978 the 43 was sold by Palmer Johnson to an owner on Lake Michigan
and renamed "Phantom".  No price is indicated.

 

In 1986 the 43 was sold to an owner racing out of Chicago and renamed
"Esta Es".  I guess the price was between $75K and $80K based on some
references to mortgages.

 

We bought the 43 in December 1998 for +-$67K, trucked her to Seattle and
renamed her "Calypso".  Ask me about a current value after we complete
the ongoing deck restoration projects.  The asking price range for C&C
43's of this vintage run from $49K un-restored to $180K for a very nice
fully updated boat.

Subject: Stus-List Original Invoice Prices

 

I would like to hear from some of the owners of the older C&C boats to
find out the original invoice prices of their boats. I think that it
will be very interesting for us to go back in time and compare the
original prices to today's current value to see the actual depreciation
over a long period of time. 

 

I just received my third survey on Alchemist, a 1986 C&C 29 Mk 2. 14
years ago it was valued at $40,000.00, 6 years ago $24,000.00 and today
$18,000.00. The interesting thing is that I put in about $15,000.00 over
the last few years in new sails, feathering propeller, instruments,
rebuilt engine and transmission, and other incidentals.  

 

My cost per sail is actually quite reasonable. If I take into
consideration my annual club costs, repairs & maintenance, insurance,
replacement of racing sails, fuel, depreciation,  etc. divided by the
number of sails a year (about 65 times) my costs are about $100.00 per
sail. There are many boats on the lake that only leave the dock a few
times a year with costs that are similar to mine so their cost per sail
is significantly higher.
