35 MK I. 30 MK I. 39 MK I. These three were the "post CCA but pre IOR" boats that were THE image of a C&C for a long time.
34 - Not for any special design or sailing ability, but for getting a lot of C&Cs out there. IIRC one of their more popular models. LF 38 - IMHO *still* one of the best offshore C&Cs. Still thinking about the others................

The 35 mk-1 was the boat that really built the company... and still has the best sheer. IMHO She feels like a much bigger boat than she is, when sailing.

The 27 Mk 1 but then I'm prejudiced, having spent many many happy hours cruising with my old dad on his. I'd put the 39 on there, even though she had more of a racing layout; what a joy to sail and look at that boat! The 30 mk1, because of its longevity...and similarity to the 27 I think the 35 Mk 3 should be on there, too, not that I have any experience with the boat, beyond looking at them during the search that resulted in acquiring Peregrine.

The reason for your choice would also be of interest. Rob
