Thanks for all the helpful replies on cabin table options. I've pretty much
narrowed my boat choices down to either a C&C 30MKii or a Tartan 31 at this
point. The Tartan's interior appears more open with the folding table

Lisle,
Here are a couple of considerations both ways (and both boat interiors look
great)…
We recently switched from a C&C 34 (table similar to C&C 30), to a Sabre 38
(table similar to Tartan 31). I much prefer that I can swing the table up on
the bulkhead. That is now our standard configurati
Everyone's criteria is different. How folks use their boats is also a
consideration. Both boats look nice. Both are quality built.
I guess I'm strange but my starting point is always the rig and how the
sailing load is supported. Are the chain plates attached to a bulkhead or
are the shroud lo
Is C&C bankrupt again? I kind of lost track and they definitely were not at the
show.
Speaking of which, the show was kind of depressing. Monday was very lightly
attended and one could think from the show that sailing is 99% catamaran
charters and some French cruising boats. The Catalina lineup

Regarding the chainplates on the 30 MK II, from the pictures at

I’d guess they attach to a fiberglass “knee” behind the settees - not to the
hull directly - but to be sure you’d have to pull off the set

Check the chain plates and bulkhead carefully. They are a concern.

Lisle,
One other thing you might ask yourself is why is the C&C's table a fold
down vs the Tartan's fold up bulkhead mount. The answer lies in the
location of the forward bulkhead and mast. Where does that 2-3 feet go?
In the C&C, it's part of the dinette. The bulkhead is more forward opening

Lisle,
For what it’s worth... My kids are the same age as yours (girl, boy), and we
got our boat this summer, so they are completely new to sailing. I can tell you

We happen to have owned a C&C 1980 30-1 dinette for the last dozen years
and still own and love her, and also now own a 1994 Tartan 31. The older
30-1 isn't the same as the 30-2, but the dinette vs foldup, etc., and some
other issues seem the same.
The Tartan does have bulkhead mounted chainplates
Hi Lisle and also others
I think fixed table or fold up table has a lot to do with how you intend to use
the boat. We have raced on a C&C 115 which had the fixed table. Very nice
layout when spending time below but when racing the fixed table makes packing a
spinnaker more arduous.
Our current
I’ll add one more perspective. I have a beautiful teak table sitting in my
basement. The cabin is much roomier without it, and no one seems to miss it.
Again, it’s all about how you use the boat.

A couple of comments here.
First, I can confirm that the chainplates on the 30-2 are mounted to the
bulkhead behind the settee cushion rather than to the hull itself. However,
the load is transferred by a beefy aluminum casting, the bulkhead is quite
thick and the casting is secured by 5 or

And for comparison, Jerrod Milton on my crew made an awesome set of custom teak
drink holders for Grenadine’s cockpit and cabintop (inboard of her dorade
boxes). These he insisted on treating only with teak oil. And they have
weathered some in the course of just one season.
