Besides for all that, why buy sails for a 30 foot boat to up and down wind a few miles and then go back to the club when a 20 foot boat can do the exact same thing for WAY less cost.
Joe Della Barba Coquina Ps - our crane is free at our club, but it only holds 1,000 pounds. We are thinking of getting a 2 or 4 ton crane to get bigger boats in and out.

Retracting keel is a big deal for smaller sport boats esp because it removes reliance on venues with a crane as it allows for ramp launching. When I wish to travel to a race week with my boat when the race week is some distance away I can trailer it at 3800 lbs. However it costs me approx $300 to take my boat out of the water at my home port and then an additional $300 when I return after the race week. That is $600 before the boat moves a single mile and before all other fees. Boats like J/70 etc can be ramp launched and are very portable. There are other larger sport boats that are also standard with retractng keels ________________________________ From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of Della Barba, Joe Sent: Friday, November 08, 2013 1:48 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com<mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Subject: Re: Stus-List Current C&C History; now a Dose of reality !!!! IMHO C&C would be very well served to bring this boat or a newer version back to life. From what I can tell sport boats that *you can keep on a trailer* are where the action is. Slip fees eat up too much of the budget for people now.

It was the SR21 which was the SR Max designed by Glen Henderson. It is still a nice boat using the concept of light weight rather than too much sail. Jerry C&C 27-5
