Umm, yeah, what they said. Got me an LF38. The first thing I did with
this boat was set the rig up for single handing. With a few exceptions,
I've single handed it for 12 years. Even with passenger-type crew,
you're single handing. If you're on watch alone at night, you're single
handing.

Ditto. I have sailed my 35-1 from Louisiana to Florida singlehanded more than
once. Trim the headsail on the secondaries because they are within reach of
the helm. End boom sheeting with traveler just forward of the helm makes
trimming main easy. Use the wheelpilot to help out. All controls
The 35 MK I is pretty easy to sail singlehanded. You can reach the jib sheets
from the helm and let the traveler down the track from the helm. I am looking
into putting a 6:1 mainsheet on so I can do everything from the wheel if need
be. That said, the boat is usually steered by Otto and I am in
Jim,
I grew up sailing on a C&C 30 and 39, and I currently own a 1976 38 MkII. I
sail most of the time with my wife and two young daughters (so it's close to
single handing) and often take the boat out alone. The biggest challenge for me
is hoisting the main, it's a tall mast! But at least it is

Even after my previous rant about offshore debris and the benefits of solid
glass, I would not hesitate to trade Calypso's heavy hull for a 37R laid up as
below for inshore and coastal racing.
For long distance offshore my preference for a solid lay-up anywhere near the
water line is much stron
Jim,
I don't know your experience level, but I went from 27 to 36, no problem. I
won't own a boat I can't sail alone. Frankly, the 36 is easier than the 27.
I know everyone wants everything back to cockpit, but think about the clutter
too. Depends on how nimble you are. A good reefing syst
Jim,
There are several C&C owners in the PNW that sail similar sized boats
short-handed. A 77 C&C 38 should easily be used short-handed throughout the
Salish Sea including around Vancouver Island.

Hi Jim,
I sail a C&C 32 short handed with my girlfriend pretty well exclusively. I
know it's not on your list but I can comment on the cabin top traveller.
Thus far, no problem. It's not ideal but it's not too bad. She sheets the
main, I sheet the genoa from the helm. Having those primary self tai

Landfall 38; often single-handed. I've run all the lines back to the cockpit,

Hi gang,
I'm determined to buy an old C&C 38 or 35 primarily as a cruiser.
I'm considering a 1977 C&C 38 Mark II in great shape. My biggest concern
is whether the boat is too large and too tender for my wife and I to
handle it cruising through inland waters of Washington state. It feels

I have raced against the 99 so many times that we have nearly collided
many times. Would not wish to test the theory though as my friends that
own that particular 99 would frown on that action. On the 115 I am
always aboard and would not like to test the theory of being holed.

In addition, Seabags will take your old, unused sail and turn them into bags

No matter...my gut feeling says they will still hole through a lot
easier...impact damage...are you in a position to do a small test on that
boat and share the results with us?

The new hulls are stiff but they hole through a lot easier than the hull of
an older C&C which has solid glass reinforced polyester...Once saw a power
boat in slow reverse with the ss swim ladder supports pointing aft...go too
close to a 34R and there was a hole through the hull...rather easy
Sea bags are generally one of the best deals at the show; you'll find them
at the Gill or Henri Lloyd booths.

Boatshow tip:
Don't kick yourself after buying something at the boatshow and later finding it
cheaper on the web.
Shop internet before going to the boatshow.
Know the best internet price on any items you are considering and you'll see
many so-called "boatshow prices" are not the best deal. Man
