The Dehler DB1 Highlander hauls with that crane for cleaning bottom. It is a 33 foot older design race boat.
I also saw a beneteau 305 get lifted with the crane but the clearance was not sufficient to put on the cradle The C&C 30 would be close but I agree is a bit large for the crane Mike -----Original Message----- From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Graham Collins Sent: Monday, March 18, 2013 9:03 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Subject: Re: Stus-List Possible C&C 30 purchase Hello Mark You might want to recheck with the club, I believe the rating on the club crane is about 6000 lbs and from what I see the C&C 30 is around 8000 lbs. Also check the height clearance. I previously had an Aloha 27, it was a tight fit. I'm not aware of any 30 footers that get hauled with that crane. That said, the annual big crane launch and haul isn't much of a problem. And I have not examined the numbers, it may be possible. I've sailed on Jeff's C&C 30, it is a fine boat and sailed well in what I'd guess was > 25 knots. He keeps it at AYC. There are lots of others in the neighborhood. Hope the search goes well.
