We have original rod rigging after 33 years. Boat has been half in fresh water and half in salt. Raced a lot and cruised as well. Inspect every year with mast down, lightly grease turnbuckle threads so no galling, Everything seems fine. John and Maryann Legacy III 1982 C&C 34 Noank, CT

Stus-List What Model Have I?

On the bigger boats, I see many of you post the length, and a model name. Some vessels have the same manufacture year and LOA, but come from different model designs. Of my 1975 24, I have found only one model, the /Niagara/, but a look at the layout shows that mine is not a /Niagara/. I ha

Hey Mike So if your mast breaks how do you cut the rigging away? If you had a bolt cutter on board you'd be set for that risk, plus it would make it easier to break into my boat to steal my socket set. Sorry, "borrow"... :-) I'm all about having too many tools on board, just not electric on

You have a C&C24. They had no models, marks or names. All that changed over the boats life was the interior layout. The Niagara is a different boat. Cheers, Paul. 27 MkII Former 24 owner. Sidney, BC > Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2015 15:31:33 -0400 > To: CnC-List@cnc-list.com > Subject: Stus-List What
