My boat is a big version of the old C&C 30. I have noticed no issues in reverse with my rudder. I rarely use my tiller, so I can’t really tell you about that. I used to use the tiller in the rain so I could sit under the dodger, but then I got an autopilot. Like any boat, if the helm is a wrestling match you need some sail trim or sail reduction. Joe Della Barba Coquina C&C 35 MK I From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Ron and Sharon via CnC-List Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2014 1:00 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Stus-List C&C 30 mk1 rudder design Good morning, This is my first entry on the cnc-list. I have 40 yrs. of sailing experiece; mostly on Petersons. I am presently without a boat and have been looking at older C&C 30 mk1's (1973-75). There are several for sale in my area; asking price about $16,000. They seem to be well built and in good structural cond. Most have diesel engines. My only real concern is the rudder design (swept back, scimitar shaped). Does this design cause excessive tiller pressure when reaching in heavy air? How is it for steering when backing into a marina? I see that in 1976 they redesigned the rudder. I have not seen a decent 1976-78 mk1 for sale in my area yet. Do you think I should forget the 1973-75's and wait for a 1976 or later one? I am looking at boats in this era because they are affordable to me. Thanks for any replies.
