Sander,
Have you checked into the cost of shipping in a container? If the prices are
that high in Europe, it might be worthwhile.

The battery consists of six cells that are bolted together, so after
unbolting them I had six 40 lb. batteries. After placing a loop of rope
under the flanges I had a handle that enabled me to easily put them in
the boat where I re-bolted them together.

Don,
Who did you hire to move that battery onto the boat! That's a lot of
battery, but the weight placement couldn't be better.

The boat has been stripped completely, and I do mean EVERYTHING has been
taken off and out. The hull is an empty shell. The former
owner was going to fix the deck around the stanchion bases and do a
complete repaint, but after disassembly and initial sanding,
he went awol and left the seller with

When my brother sold his 25 Mk1, it went to either Ghost Lake or Sylvain Lake,
I can’t remember which.
It was burgundy red, called “Money for Nothin” and , had two wine glasses
painted between the break in the cove stripes on each side, (a left over from
when it was called Chianti).

Based on the glued in vs aluminum frame portlights, and the fact that the
cabin top forward stands proud of the foredeck rather than sloping down to
merge into the foredeck, both of these are Mk2s.
Bit as someone already pointed out, C&C didn't offer a shoal keel for the

They are both Mk2s.
Wombat looks like a stock Mk2 that has been painted and the waterline boot
stripe looks to have been raised at least 3 or 4 inches.
Pequod looks like the keel has been modified to make it easier to get the boat
on and off the trailer.
It may have been a special ord
Rick,
The Mk1 stopped production in 1977 and the Mk2 went into production in 1980
as a '81 model year boat, my dad bought his in the fall of 1980.
The prototype Mk2 had a serious trim issue when it was launched (4" down by
the bow).
As an interim measure C&C built the first 6 Mk2's (#556 - #5
I think he said he was in Holland! I believe he was questioning whether the
25 had come over on her own bottom. I would think a container across the
pond would have to be a couple grand.

Well it looks like both are Mk2's.Just been to the lake and both have bridge deck, no transom locker and glued in windows. But Pequod has a much shallower draft.Pequod is about 3'7"; Wombat is about 4'7".Thanks for all the help guys,sam :-) 403-617-6280
For those not intimately familiar with the 27 series of boats, I have added the
more commonly used (but not by C&C itself) mark
designations to Rick's list.

As part of the refit for cruising I've added an Electra-San MSD and a 1000
watt anchor windlass forward, plus a dedicated battery to power them. I've
installed a group 24 deep cycle of about 90 AH under the v-berth. Removing
the big holding tank there made room for the Electra-San, a 9

I'm not at the lake right now, so I can't check your visual cues Rick.
Next time I go I'll see if I can spot the differences.
As you can see from the pics, Pequod sits very much lower on its trailer
Wow, Dwight. Based on the PHRF Red/White/ and Blue book information
published by US Sailing, the guys with the 25 Mk1 and Mk2 in your area have
the lowest ratings in North America and the guy wilt the 27-1 has close to
the highest. Are these boats modified in any significant fashion?

I moved the (2) Group 27 deep cycle batteries purchased in 2004 from my 38

I, myself, am curious about the transition point between the Mk1 and Mk2.
All of the brochures on the Photo Album website are for Mk2s, and differ

I recall the price five years ago was around $800, may be more. It was

suggested was reasonable. After four years I have a serious problem with
