Hi,
I have been PHRF racing at our local club, this is my first year with a C&C
30 MK1 (1979) is there a thread or anyone have comments on getting the best
out of the boat, eg tight rigging, rake, sail selection, strength or
weaknesses specific to the 30 to stay competitive? I have been sailing fo

Regarding in board tracks, don't have any. On my wish list.
How much weather helm is normal; example heading into the wind 15K with
150% and main back winding some - I have about 1/4 turn on the wheel and
perhaps more on the puffs.

Hi All,
The "Y" on my where the cooling water connects to the exhaust rusted out
and I am rebuilding it. It was made out of 1 1/4 " steel water pipe. A 3/8
" piece was welded onto 6" of straight pipe to make a "Y". The 3/8" piece
is where the cooling water would travel into the 1 1/4" exhaust.

I am finishing the teak handrails outside and interior - anyone have any
idea on what was used to finish the interior handrails from factory. I
would like to try to match the original look. looks like a stain or satin
finish of some sort.

The redwings make good club racers, I race against 2 on a regular basis and
have crewed on one a couple years for Wednesday races. lots of fun to sail
on. I would say they sail to their PHRF rating (maybe better at times) and
as Mike H says are a bitch to beat! If you could see our club champion

I have been contemplating on buying a new ev100 outopilot or purchase a
used control head for my old st4000+. I would save about $1000 dollars. so
my question is is it worth the money to invest in new? will the ev100
technology perform better?

Hi Barry, I have a C&C 30MK1 - would use it in most conditions and mostly
solo sailing where i missed not having the AP the most. Most of my sailing
are few hour trips and racing around the bay; not allowed to use it for
racing. it is real nice to set when putting sails up, cruising and
relaxing,
Hello all,
I removed teak hand rails from my C&C30 MK1 1979 last fall. There is an
inside and outside rail that are both fastened together by the same bolt
and nut (inside nut). Both ends are recessed into the rail with teak plug
to fill the hole.
I haven't tried to install them back yet however,
Hi everyone,
I am investigating putting genoa tracks and cars on my C&C30 MK1 1979. I
have a 110 and 150 head sail.
Can folks racing 30's comment on what is the best configuration of tracks
on a 30. Will one long track work verses separate tracks for different
sails? and where on the deck would t
Hi All, thank for everyone that provided feedback on genoa track on a C&C30
mk1.
Micheal Brown pointed out an interesting sailing magazine article

My take away here is I should be sheeting as close as 7 degrees up to 10
degrees depend
Hi, The bag idea for filling holes sounds good and sure I would try. I use
a squeeze bottle that you can buy at the dollar store, it is about 500ml
similar to a condiment bottle for ketchup ect. However this has the volumes
marked out which helps out in the measuring and mixing all in the same

I really wanted a corvette a couple years ago when I was looking for a
larger boat. It would have been a great step up from my redline 25 swing
keel. I really wanted the shallow keel the Corvette has. It would have
cost to much to buy one and ship it in to fix up; there did not seem to be
any near
