I had a hard time thinking of the “new” C&Cs as related to “real” C&Cs in any way except the logo, but then they went and changed that too. I used to think sailors got tired of sailing and bought trawlers, but an informal look around shows the end destination of sailors seems to be a nice center console fishing boat. I can kind of see it too, no systems really, the engine winterizes itself every time you tilt it up, and it fits into any random time slot. Hard to convince a modern scheduled to death family to carve out the time needed to own and use a sailboat. You too can take a week off work that just happens to coincide with a Bermuda high and you’ll never touch the sails, but you will combine heat, humidity, AND bugs!
Joe Coquina C&C 35 MK I From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of rjcasciato--- via CnC-List Sent: Monday, July 24, 2017 11:05 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: rjcasci...@comcast.net Subject: Re: Stus-List US Watercraft receivership Dennis......it's the old adage......if you don't learn from history....you're destined to repeat it..... My own opinion is that sailing has become a diminishing interest.....while power boats are enjoying a growth market..... It's the immediate gratification generation......just turn the key and drive away..... It's not the lack of money.......except for special circumstances.....e.g. Comanche, Meteor, etc......the money is going into power..... Check out the MJM 50 e.g. big engines, gyroscopic stabilization and a $2.5 M pricetag..... And the waiting list is over 3 years long......MJM produces at least 2 boats per week.....from 35' to 50'.......the least expensive is in the $900K range..... Makes me really like my C&C even more........ Ron C.
