Someone took a saw to a deep draft model? I have seen one such 37 for sale some time ago. Mars Metal will sell you a bulb to bolt on after the keel-ectomy. Joe Coquina C&C 35 MK I

The vast majority of cored C&C hulls and decks have little to no issues. But a few out there are nightmares, usually due to improperly done penetrations for thru-hulls or deck fittings or penetrations from the interior, down in the bilges into the cores that were done improperly. The surveyor should at the minimum have a moisture meter, and know how to use it and should also go over the hull and deck with a plastic hammer to sound it out. I paid a surveyor to do just that first before we spent the extra money of a full survey back when we were buying. The cores were dry.

I need some advice from the owners about 1983 C&C 37 Draft 5' 5".The boat looks very good and clean ( for the age) from provided pictures and description ( 5'5" draft ! I wondering if this is misprint). Well maintained ( broker words). What Should I look for and how the boat sails ( stiff , tender etc.) or I should stay away from 34 years old balsa cored Hull and deck ? Thank you for any input and advice.
