Interesting choice and glad to hear I’m not the only one. I had a 25 Mk I then
a 33 MkII C/B and after a number of weeks spent each summer in the North
Channel of Lake Huron and a few passages in less than ideal conditions I
started looking for a 37+ which I thought would be the ideal boat but after
looking at a few I decided it was just too big for myself and the Admiral
especially considering that we have to pull our masts and boats every fall and
put them back together in the spring and the option of paying to have it done
doesn’t exist unless I change harbours. So I thought the 34+ would be a better
fit and then I came across the Saga 35 which promised the speed of a 37+ in a
package more the size of a 34+ and it is made by the some of the same craftsmen
as C&C. Long story short, I now have a Saga 35 but still not perfect and I’m
not even sure if it is any better than the 34+ would be. Bottom line, there is
no such thing as the perfect boat but there are a number of C&C’s that come as
close as one can hope for especially for the price and considering the newest
ones are now a quarter century old and some of the classics more than half a
century. The sailing community owes a lot to the two Georges, three if you
include Mr. Hinterhoeller.
Cheers,

I am sitting on Rebecca Leah with fellow C&C owner Jacob Fuerst. We are
discussing the perfect boat. What is the perfect cruising boat? What is the
perfect weekender? Perfect race boat? If you commissioned a one off boat would
it be the perfect boat?
Just asking
