Subject: Re: Stus-List Tiller on C&C 35 Mkiii?
Rob,
Thanks for that link - I'll definitely take a look. We own a little trailer
sailor at present (Potter 19), so this will be the first keelboat purchase for
me. I've done a fair amount of sailing (passages from Portland to the San
Juans) with friends on their boats, some sailing classes and a couple of
cruises in the San Juans/Gulf Islands.
We currently live in Oregon, but I'm in the process of retiring and we've
purchased a house in Port Angeles, so if I do buy a boat, it will be based out
of Port Angeles. I've been looking for something from 30' to 35' feet, so
this is at the long end. I originally had been reluctant to consider these C&C
boats because of the cored hulls, but I guess I'm somewhat getting over that
phobia, although I'll definitely be getting it surveyed.
Cheers,
Dave

Dave, welcome to the C&C list. You didn't say if this was your first boat (I
am betting it is not)......if you are, then the attached article and especially
the part where it says to become a boat detective could be useful buying any
boat.

However, if you are only looking for specifics on C&C 35MKIII's, there are
several owners on this list with considerable experience with the 35 MKIII.
Keep the list informed on how you far out. And where do you sail from?

Hello - first post here. I'm in the market for a boat and will be looking at
two different 35 Mkiii tomorrow. One apparently has a tiller instead of a
wheel. Does anyone know if this was an option on a new boat? I'm assuming it
was probably a later conversion.
I've already been advised on checking for leaks at hull/deck joint and
portlights, as well as mast step area and deck delamination/core rot.
If there are any other things to be looking for let me know. I'll definitely
be getting a survey if it gets that far, but trying to screen out any major
issues.
Thanks,
Dave Castor
