To me, this conversation is more about brand loyalty than differences in boats. I don't know of a single 1980's automobile that bears much resemblance to it's 2013 descendant either mechanically, structurally or visually, but we still love our Chevs or Bimmers.
We are very fortunate that the boats most of us own are extremely well built, tough as nails and good lookin' too:) I was over today at the shop doing the repairs to mine after my altercation with a shoal, and the surveyor and the guys in the shop were both amazed at that the damage was confined to the keel and the rudder. They said that any modern boat would have to have the sump and rudder post area rebuilt. Rich Knowles INDIGO LF38 Halifax, NS.

I know most of the people involved and they are pretty decent guys. The company president used to own a C&C 41, his right hand man grew up on a C&C 29, and one of the guys used to work at the old C&C plant in RI. Most of the rest have some connection with pre-Tartan C&Cs. I think they will be a good thing for the brand. And they have already offered their support in any way they can for those of us with older boats. Andy C&C 40 Peregrine
