I owned two Hinterhoeller built Sharks over the years. Great boats.

I find the 27 mkV is very easy to surf. Keeping it there is the hard part. 15
knots of true wind with a swell will do it and is key to racing well. I have
not managed to make her surf with wind alone and I'm not sure it can without
blowing something up. Be interesting to hear otherwise.

As long as we are comparing "war stories", despite previously maligning IOR
hulls, the fastest I've gone in a keel boat was on *Marauder* in the long
distance race of the 1975 Canada's Cup on Lake St. Clair, when it was
blowing the shingles off the roof, and we had a #2 on the spinnaker pole.

The 35 MK I does not come close to planning like a modern sport boat.
The best I have done in flat water is 11 knots boatspeed with 50-60 knots on
the stern and the working job up. At that speed the stern is sunk nearly to
water level. In any kind of the waves the boat will surf/plane DOWN the wa

about eight feet high, coming from the WSW and parallelin
Don,
What years did C&C build these?

My best surfing experience was 12 knots boat speed, in 42 knots true wind
speed, down the Straits of Juan de Fuca ---until my spinnaker exploded. It was
a hell of a ride while it lasted.

Not a definitive analysis, but my recollection is that the older CCA type
hulls, C&C 35s, 43s, and certainly the 61s were better off the wind than
the later IOR influenced hulls, which were better upwind than the older
boats. However, it would be interesting to hear from owners on that
subject.

Touche' also has the Perko deck mounts on the bow casting. I keep a spare

Hi Rob and Hank,
Did any of the C&C models have a particular strength in surfing (or planing)
down wind in 15 to 20 knots true wind speed? Years ago I recall talking to Rob
Ball about the importance of prismatic coefficient in surfing performance but I
was remiss in not asking what C&C models ha

Those are exactly the lights I used to replace the lights on my 25 mk1. It was
a direct replacement for the OEM lights. I think Perko offers them as well.
Lenses for the lights are also available in the event your old stainless light
is still functioning but the lens is cracked or scorched.
Guys,
One other point about unapproved lights -- The other boater would have to
prove that the accident occurred because he could not see the lights. If
your 1 nm light is only visible for .8 nm, how did that cause the accident?
(and who is going to test the bulb?)

No, in 1973 the 35 Mk.1 had lights on top of the bow casting similar to

FYI - the running lights standard on the 1973 35 MK I, if you can find them,
are sold as "not approved for new construction", so I think they do not meet

Yes, you must comply with the

from the original bulb as supplied with the fixture, it is no
