IIRC one of our listers took a 30-1 across the Atlantic in a boat named Cousin,
was it? Can't remember the name of the lister except it sounded French.So the
boat can stand up well to offshore work; although I believe he made some
serious prep before the journey.RonWild CheriC&C 30-1STL

Lisle the C&C 30 that your looking at is referred to as the Mark II or 30-2,
great boat I just sold mine after 17 years of ownership. Forward cabin is good
for only 1 adult or 2 children, the aft cabin is very comfortable and 6'10"
long. The 30-2 is a considerably bigger boat than the other two your looking at
and has a wide beam all the way to the stern. The one in your link is more
expensive than others on yachtworld though it also has a long list of nice
upgrades.

Hi all,
Update: I looked at the C&C25 and although it appeared to be a basically solid
boat, it feels a bit too small for a family of 4 and the headroom was a bit
low. I'm hearing a lot of "3-foot-itis" stories from sellers I'm speaking with.
So the search goes on. I've found an interesting 1987 Pearson 27 that looks
promising, here is the link:
https://rochester.craigslist.org/bod/d/1987-pearson-27-2-sailboat/6281575540.html
The one issue with the Pearson is that apparently it got struck by another boat
on the port bow side that required some repair.
Also, I'm going to see a 1987 C&C 30 later today that looks promising. Link
here:

Can someone with a C&C 30' tell me how large the v-birth actually is and share
any experience with the idea of a beginner sailor staring with a boat like this?
thanks,
Lisle
