The forward water tank in mineis aluminum and the fuel tank is aluminum. The back stayattachments are a place for detailed inspection. You'll probablyfind that the steering cable idlers plate, directly under the pedestal,is probably badly rusted. It should be one of the first safetyrepairs. The engine mounts may be soft and in need of replacementtoo.

Last year I sold my 35 Mk II (Expresso) and bought my 37/40+. Iloved Expresso, but the 37+ is better in almost every way. Theperformance difference is breathtaking. The boat I bought was inpretty bad shape and I spent almost a year refitting her. Werenamed her "Kaylarah" after my grand daughters Kayla andSarah. The side windows are chronic problems on these boats, butalmost all of them have that problem, so you will probably have to dealwith that. If you are, at all handy, they are not that hard tofix. I can give you a lot of advice in that area. The holdingtank is made out of aluminum, and the tank was installed before theinterior was installed. Repairing/replacing the tank is a bigdeal. Of course, you should watch out for the usual punky coreddeck. Otherwise she is a good boat with minimal problems. Text me if you need specific advice. There are a lot of 37/40+owners on this forum and they have a lot of helpful knowledge. - - Good luck, - Gary - S/V Kaylarah - '90 C&C 37+ - East Greenwich, RI, USA - - ~~~~~~~_/)~~~~~~ - - On Sun, Dec 4, 2016 at 6:48 PM, Mark via CnC-List<cnc-list@cnc-list.com>wrote: - I am looking at a 1993 C&C 37/40+ CB model as our next boat. Myfirst big boat was a 1974 C&C 27 which I had to 12 years, thenupgraded to a 1975 C&C 35 MKII in 1992. After 25 years (comeFebruary) on the best boat ever built, I'm looking to upgrade tosomething a little more cruising, but with C&C performance. Giventhat requirement, it seems reasonable that I should stick withC&C. - I've read through the all the email lists concerning the C&C 37+and most everything looks positive. The boat I'm looking at is listed inMarco Island and immediately needs hatches and windows. I looked at itover the Thanksgiving holidays, and other that those issues, it seemsquite basic; doesn't appear to have been raced hard (i.e. no spinhardware & Dacron sails) and not much in cruising upgrades (i.e.needs windless, davits, etc.). Could be a good platform to startwith. - For you C&C 37/40+ owners out there, is there any thing I shouldpay close attention to other than engine condition & standing riggingcondition that could bite me. - Thanks, - Mark Baldridge - ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~_/) - '75 C&C35 MKII "The Edge" - Surf City, NC - _______________________________________________ - This list is supported by the generous donations of our members.
