Has anyone had a stainless steel anchor guard made for the bow of their C&C 35 Mk I or II. If so, I would like to know where and anything else related to the installation process. Thanks.

This is an external email. ________________________________ I second Mikes take. My 34 has been a great relatively inexpensive cruising boat so far and I love having a boat that moves in light wind. We sail short handed too and don’t race so I tend to reef early but she will handle a blow just fine and with the full rig you can sail to windward pretty well (actually on all points) under headsail only when it is blowing. It does have plenty of old boat issues and needs work and TLC but if you have fun with that it isn’t too bad. Yes soft spots in the deck happen (Sailed with them for two years and just repaired this spring) and some leaks around the bulkhead connections but overall my impression is that it is a good quality production boat with the right compromise between interior and cockpit space and relatively underpriced compared to similar size boats. Like Mike, my wife got on the 34 and despite the dirt and mildew cause it had been sitting for a few years she said this is the one. We got her cleaned up and are improving things each year. One drawback for cruising is no bow roller for the anchor.

Skywalker was a bit unique in that she was built for a fellow who raced her in the UK so she is a bit of a "winch farm" as I have had some admirers refer to her as :). She sails like a dream, great in the light wind, decent in the middle and very stable in heavy (I have found) as I have been caught in some ugly wind here and there in the Northeast. mine has a tiller (1st owners choice) so I originally was disappointed as I wanted to have a "big wheel" :), however very soon after sailing her I found that as big as she is, even with my 150% up she sails like a Sunfish and I tack as fast. I have only launched the symmetrical spinnaker once in light wind 5-8 and she was fabulous, but since it is just my wife and I, I have no desire to use it in anything more than that.... Hull is very solid, I have a soft spot or two in the decks and I fix them as I go along but it comes with the age, besides its just my wife and I and she is only 108lbs so its not like I have a crew of guys stomping around up there, we have no cabin leaks although the toe-rail had some but thanks to Capt Tolley's Creeping Crack cure (thanks Dennis) they no longer are a problem. We have the original A4 gas engine which was redone by Moyer Marine in 2009, I find the boat sails so well I do not use it too much and we do a fair amount of distance in our boat. To be honest I prefer the gas engine as I do not care for the diesel smell or exhaust. When shopping boats my wife turned her nose up at everything 35's, Bristols, Cats, etc...….we saw our 34' on a rainy cold day in October, it was on the end of a dock blowing 25mph and we had to jump just to get on her.....we were on her 5 minutes and my wife said "buy her". I think the hardest part of my ownership of my 34' is telling my wife its time to go home. Buy the 34 and sail, just sail Mike Dolan 1978 34' C&C Skywalker Southold, NY _______________________________________________ Thanks everyone for supporting this list with your contributions.
