Jim, thanks; you will find the 33-II as fast as any boat and easily handled; (I
don't want to start a war, but I believe the 33-II would hold its own against
the 35-III); I was intimidated by the size of the rig at first but I am very
comfortable with it now... The hull can handle the stress of the rig; the
interior is comfy enough; go for it!

Hi Richard.
I have a Hunter 25.5 1985. This has been my first boat. I have raced on
various boats. Hughs 38, X99, kirby 30. My Brother has a CS30.
My choice of boats will either be the C&C 33 MkII or a CS 30.
I have friends with C&C 35 MkIII. Sailed on them last summer. 35 is a lot of
boat and I see a lot of single handed sailing in my future. Kids are busy and
wife likes to sunbathe. Which is fine, I love to sail.

Subject: Stus-List Info on C&C 33 MkII
Good Day everyone.
I am considering the purchase of a 1985 C&C 33 MkII. I was hoping I could get
some unbiased feedback on the Pros and Cons of the boat. I am aware of the
mast step compression issue and the failing support under it. I understand the
process for a fix. Considering these boats have held up for 28 years I have to
ask my self :
1. What are the major issues I can expect to deal with for the next 15 years.
2. Can anyone tell me specifically where the cored hull panels are in the bow?
Are they above the water line?
Even better does anyone have construction drawing on this boat?
3. Given the massive keel on this beautifull Race/Cruiser, are stresses
showing up as a result of the forces on decks and hulls ?
4. I live in Leamington Ontario and cannot find any 33 MkII s locally. Would
anyone know of the closest one to Essex county?
5. If anyone is up for a phone call and real chat about this I would be
thrilled to hear from owners. I would be glad to make the call on my dime.
Thank you everyone
Jim Buschman
