Yes that is the same configuration Grenadine has. I suspect the long boom was to accommodate boom-end sheeting. Grenadine’s mainsheet runs from the aft end of the boom, with the traveler at the aft end of the cockpit. I like that because, along with tiller steering, it makes for a very roomy cockpit.
The E dimension on a C&C 30 MK I is 11.5 feet. The foot of Grenadine’s current main falls short of that by maybe six inches, so it looks even worse (a lot of nekkid boom aft). I think that might be because some previous owner raised the boom a foot from its original height (which C&C started doing from the factory after Grenadine was built), and might have just lopped off the bottom foot of the main to go with the higher boom, thereby shortening the sail’s foot. I’ll probably get a new main this offseason - Grenadine has already been measured for it, and for damn sure I’ll get every last millimeter of that class-standard E dimension.
