It's a '74 mk2, hull #243, named "Chimo V". I was there on Saturday to look at the boomkicker vang, but it was already gone, as was the main and quite a few other items. Ending up getting a twin block Schaefer mainsheet setup in ok shape and a few original cleats to add midships for spring lines. The interior was in just ok shape, and most of the teak was being pulled out. As most of the items were in no better shape than my own, there wasn't much else I needed. The mast, boom and furler appeared to be in good shape.
Very sad to see a great boat die like this, but it was insured. With the current demand for boats, the owner might have trouble finding a replacement, although he apparently had her since the 80s, so maybe he is ready for something different, still very upsetting though. I noted that she'd been grinding on the rocks for long enough to wear a section about 1/2" deep and 12x18" on the hull ahead of the keel, but the only part that might have taken on water was a gash where the prop was driven into the hull as the shaft was bent - the glass appeared not as thick here. The rudder post was only slightly bent, so not sure how the prop got whacked so hard, maybe a log on the beach. Lots of serious gashes on the keel where she went aground on Mayne Island in a SE storm a few weeks ago. It's been a bad storm season for us already, with the last one showing 8 hours of sustained 60-80kn winds further north on Vancouver Island, and 40-50kn in parts of our "sheltered" waters near Victoria. On another sad note, last weekend's club racing saw a serious collision between two C&C 30s, and I have heard that one may be a write off. :( -- Shawn Wright shawngwri...@gmail.com S/V Callisto, 1974 C&C 35 https://www.facebook.com/SVCallisto On Sat, Nov 21, 2020 at 6:21 PM Jim Watts <paradigmat...@gmail.com> wrote: > https://www.usedvictoria.com/classified-ad/Parting-out-1974-CC-35_36827815 > > Bad news for the owner, regrets if you're on the list.
