I have sailed and raced my 39TM at least 100,000 miles since purchase in 1975 and even with the original rudder never suffered the round up issued mention earlier in the thread. However, in late 1976 C&C sent me a new and updated deeper rudder "free of charge" and the boat just simply sailed even better. Then in 2002, I had new high aspect rudder designed and built for Honey and improvement was beyond belief. Sadly, the maintenance, new UK sails & general upkeep over the last 4 years costs more than the boat is worth. I can honestly say that our C&C 39 TM has aged like a fine wine, after 42 years of owning her she just keeps getting better, I just wish that her value would increase as well.
I agree, the 39 is the prettiest of the hulls that C&C built and they built some damn good looking boats.
