Hans-Erik:
The original standing and running rigging on a 32 was pretty basic when
they were built. The original setup for the jib halyard and main
halyard were winches and deck cleats on the cabin top just aft of the
mast. The main sheet led back from the base of the mast to a winch and
deck cleat (on mine) on the cabin top port of the companionway.
Question is....have previous owners, like Michael Clow and me, made
changes to the original deck layout.
Michael, I did the same change to my 'main sheet'......the original
setup was too awkward and if you were single handed, well, enough
said.....that's why we changed it so the main could be trimmed when
single-handed.
Hans-Erik, scroll through the 'Desire' pics and where Michael describes
his new main sheet arrangement, there is a good picture of the
setup.....mine is similar.....you have to click on another link called
Here to see the pic.
You will find this C&C list invaluable.

Hello Hans-Erik,
Welcome to the list and congratulations on your purchase. With the
boat being over 30 years old there is a good chance that it does not
have the original deck set up any more. I am a very serious club
racer and have changed the deck layout to reflect that need. As I
also do a lot of double handed sailing so the running rigging is run
back to the cockpit but is also set up to be available at the mast
too. I have a few photos on the layout at:

Where are you located and what kind of sailing do you plan to do?

Subject: Stus-List Diagram for deck arrangement on C&C 32?
I'm a proud new owner of a C&C 32 and a novice sailor. I'm trying to
get a better handle on the fairly complex layout of the deck tackle on
this boat. Is there any resource (i.e. diagram) available that would
explain the arrangement of blocks, winches, etc. for this boat? I
would have thought that this might be included in the owners manual
but it's not. Thanks for the help!
