Hi Richard,
On yachtworld.com go to advanced search.
In "Mfg/Model" enter C&C
In "Length: From:" enter 37 and in "To:" enter 40
In "Year: From:" enter 1988 and in "To:" enter 1994
Don't bother with any other boxes.
That will find every 37+ (37/40+) and every 37XL (37/40XL) and every 37R

Richard,
There are a few of us 37+ owners on the list and we're all more than
happy to answer any questions we can.
You could search for 37+, 37XL, 37/40+, 37/40XL, etc. I think
production started in 1989 and ran to 1991 (or 1992). I have a 1990.
As for heavy weather
Ken,
Thanks for the update. I will likely have a few more questions, so I'm sorry to
keep pestering. That said, who among us ever tires of talking about our boats??
As I am looking for 37+ information, how should I search; did they have any
other designations? What years? Will they be listed as

Solar panel is not charging via the Link "house bank" shunt. Seeing that its
