And then with a very limited resale market. The boat is obviously not going to be as fast as a normal 40 with either a deep keel or centerboard, never mind the higher boom, and the interior is incredible for two people. For a crowd, maybe not so much. The usual C&C 40 shopper is probably not after a couple’s Great Loop boat. I would say Loopers aren’t after C&C 40s either, but from what I have read some of them have figured out that de-rigged sailboats are vastly more efficient than even most trawlers.

The landfall 38 has a LWL of 30.17. The description says; They started with the hull from a C&C 40, arguably one of their best performing hulls, and modified it to have a more traditional cruising stern. They took the bow and cockpit sections from the Landfall 38 series and put a pilothouse, fashioned after the Landfall 48, over the salon. The result was a unique, stiff and fast cruiser with an amazing amount of living space for a very demanding cruising couple /John On May 31, 2024, at 8:47 AM, Richard Bush via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com>> wrote: This looks more like a Landfall 39 than an altered 40....; check out the spec and photos on the photo album...

I am 50/50 on if it is great or a hot mess. Has anyone ever seen this boat? Two things come to mind that might be negatives, can you see over the pilothouse or do you look through it? Second, thinking about being healed way over in 20 foot seas and coming down the companionway ladder on a port tack, that could be challenge and then some. Maybe that isn’t a thing on Lake Ontario? OTOH don’t rig it and you have on hell of a Great Loop boat!
