Well that is great news. I don't think I will ever be able to make an Atlantic crossing. I do want to be able to take her up and down the eastern seaboard for the next 15 to 20 years. My wife will retire in the next 5 -8 years if all goes as expected. We hope to have a $20,000 a year kitty to sail

Re: Stus-List C&C30 MK1 5' draw on the keel?

Curt, Who ever told you this boat is not a good choice for offshore didn't know what he was talking about. I sailed this boat (1973 vintage) across the Atlantic twice, with a crew of three in 2008 to Europe and singlehanded back in 2010. I've never be been worried about the safety and seaworthin

Re: Stus-List WestMarine has 40% off of bulk lines

Chuck, I wouldn't use the original line specs.  Those were written years ago.  Lines are better and stronger now.  I'd go to New England Ropes or apsltd.com and use their line selector.  You may end up a size smaller than the manual specs.  For my 35-

Re: Stus-List C&C30 MK1 5' draw on the keel?

That’s great to know. Like I said this is a 1981 boat. the PO raced her a bit but never hurt it. Is seems to be very stiff in the hull and the standing rigging is tight with little signs of wear. I cut off all the white covering from the OEM Stainless life lines they looked good as well. They were

Here are the numbers for my slightly larger LF38; all lines led back to the cockpit. This is from an order I placed with Cajun Ropes in 2007 -- they had all the lengths on file. I have since upsized the mainsheet from 3/8" to 7/16", as it was slipping in the clutch: > S/V Oceanis (1979 C&C La

Stus-List Bermuda to Norfolk

I completed my sail yesterday on a Pacific Seacraft 37. We saw almost everything in terms of weather- winds from 0 to 60, seas, 0 to 10! I've read about Gulf crossings with heavy wind and seas and thunderstorms from out of nowhere. We hit the trifecta - had all 3. Details are probably too long

Re: Stus-List WestMarine has 40% off of bulk lines

Chuck, Don't have my manual. I went with 7/16 VPC for halyards. They were less stretchy than Sta-Set without breaking the bank. Obviously, you could go high tech and strip covers if you want to spend the money. I think the main and jib halyards were 115 feet each to cabin-top clutches and winch

Re: Stus-List C&C30 MK1 5' draw on the keel?

The C&C 30 is the most stable boat of any C&C built. I would have no problem sailing one to Bermuda or Europe except the generic one of being used to 5 more feet. C&C really has very few boats, if any, that are not SAFE offshore. Comfortable and dry – that is another thing entirely ;) ·

You have a better boat than the advice you were given, unless your boat has suffered some specific damage. In good shape, I can't think of any boat that is both suitable for "off-shore day sails" and more seaworthy in any significant way. -Original Message- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-li

the photoalbum diagram shows she is one of the stiffest boats C&C built. Mast, boom, standing rigging all overbuilt as well. Have not heard of structural failures other than the mast step deteriorating. I think, for her size range, she is unusually capable. In our case, I'm sure she can take more t

Re: Stus-List C&C30 MK1 5' draw on the keel?

Someone did the Atlantic on a 30-1. The only concern I would have taking mine out for a long trip is the single lower shrouds, but I don't know why - they are tied into a pretty stout chainplate which is bolted (eight or ten or so) through a bulkhead. I would inspect that stuff, I would add a co
