Hello everyone,
I want to set up my 32 to be able to single-hand. Currently, the traveler is
on the coach roof and my wingspan is not large enough to reach the helm and the
mainsheet at the same time
I'm wondering if any other 32 owners have set their boats up to single-hand and
what solutions

Good morning fellow C&C owners,
I'm looking for input from those who have sailed the shoal draft version of the
C&C 30 (draft of 4'2") in comparison to the standard draft version (5').
Theoretically, the standard version should point a little better, but in
practice is there much difference in
It appears that there are differing reports from the literature.
Sailboatdata.com has the draft at 4.2' for shoal and 5.00' for standard. In
any case, it appears that the shoal is somewhere between 4'3" and 4'6" and that
theory holds a bit in practice of the owners, but the shoal still points

Hi Rick,
Congratulations on your pending retirement.
I know you said you wanted a C&C in the 33-38 foot range, but perhaps you would
consider a C&C 32? Mine is for sale and located in Cleveland. If you have any
interest, let me know and we can talk off list.

I was recently thinking of adding a mid-ship cleat to my C&C for just this
purpose, but did not like the idea of putting it through the deck. Was
recently aboard an old S2 that has a slotted toe rail a lot like C&C's. The
owner had added a mid-ship cleat with a sideways, U-shaped flanged base

Hi Tom,
Yes, that is a better solution. Upon further review of a picture of the one I
saw on the S2 I referred to, it appeared to be a custom weld of a cleat onto a
metal base. Thanks,

That is a fine looking boat you have there Rob. It must be tough to part with
her. If she weren't so salty, I would consider her as I am looking for
something with a shallower draft.
I have my C&C 32 for sale here on Lake Erie. Haven't gone with a broker yet as
I'm trying to sell her myself
Wow! I'm dismayed to hear you had such a terrible experience. I just reached a
verbal agreement with them on a C & C pending a survey and I am awaiting the
contract.
So far so good, but this is concerning.

As Dave said, it may very well be cosmetic. Just the same, would it make sense

I'm looking for advice on some safety gear. I plan to purchase jack lines and

Hi Rob,
Is the spot just stained or is the wood also showing some rot and structural
weakening? If the latter is the case, you may want to inject some penetrating
epoxy into the area to strengthen it in addition to refinishing the surface.
