Hello All, I have a 1983 C&C 37 that I purchased 2 years ago from RCR yachts in
Buffalo. It was named IMPACT and prior to that it was named FREEDOM SONG. I
have named it WORTHY PEARL. I sail it on Lake Ontario out of Etobicoke Yacht
Club. Prior to this boat I had a Niagara 26 WAVE WALKER that I sailed for 31
years. My son has taken ownership of it now. I am still getting used to her but
I think the boat sails extremely well. I have made a number of changes to the
running rigging, having everything coming back to the cockpit. I sail mainly
short handed and do a lot of single handed racing. My goal this year is to do
the Lake Ontario 300 single handed with spinnaker. The biggest change I am
making over the winter is moving the traveler from the cabin top to the
cockpit. I found that the mid boom sheeting could not trim the main properly.
With a loose footed main, the boom would bend and not tighten the leach. I will
let you all know if it works. I will keep the original traveler on the cabin
top just in case. Mac McKenzie1983 C&C 37 Worthy Pearl
