I would disagree. C&C has been through enough changes that I would not say they have a graph of quality heading only upwards*. It would not take long to find older boat X better than newer boat Y. Besides for that, the boats are old enough to have had very different lives.

"Buy the newest boat you can afford, the got better over time". I started looking at corvettes, 35 mk1 and 2, and ended up with a 33mkii. The older boats are classics, and great, but 3 years later i think it was good advice.

I've been looking at this 1981 C&C 36. Ticks a lot of boxes for us... Shallow draft, significantly bigger, a wheel, and a diesel. I know there are a ton of 36 owners on here. Anyone have anything to say about this boat good or bad? Any advice if I go up to look at her? She definitely appears to need a little TLC, but I'm looking for a bargain with good bones that I can fix up like I did my 30-1. Thanks in advance, Ryan
