1.       about $1000 depending on the hot water heater you choose.5-6
gallons is enough imo and the pressure pump.get ITT PAR diaphragm pump maybe
$200 both hot and cold pressure.  Resale value is mostly about age of boat
and engine.a good diesel is worth more imo.inventory counts for some buyers,
the extra things you do with your boat are for you, others might not want to
pay extra for them on resale.

2.       No, but inboard tracks are not that hard to install and with roller
cars they are worth it. The interior bolts won't be visible unless you lay
on your back and look up.the tracks need only be about 4-5 feet long.I have
them installed on my 35 MKII but I need to measure for exact.

3.       The 35 MKII is a beautiful boat, stand back and look at her lines
and fall in love and she is very seaworthy with a higher than expected
motion comfort factor for a 35 footer.she is fast and fastest off the wind,
she points well but not as well as more modern racier designs.I love mine
and hope to keep her in the family for decades to come.we see what she can
do every time another mast is in sight and we enjoy the ride

 

All 35 MKII's are old: get a good survey.if that checks out and the price is
what you are willing to pay, go for it.I have never regretted buying Alianna

Subject: Stus-List C&C 35-2 questions

 

Hello all,  need some advice please.

 

There's a 35-2 for sale that I'll be looking at this week. The boat seems to
be a "base" model without many options; no teak holly sole, no hot pressure
water (does have "cold water system"), no genoa tracks.

So my questions are:

1) Can anyone give a ballpark idea of how much it would cost to have hot
pressure water added (by a yard shop, since I don't have the knowledge/tools
etc to tackle such a job)?  Is resale value of this boat diminished much by
not having hot pressure water/shower?

Is the resale value and desirability of this model increased very much by
adding  the hot pressure water/shower feature?

 

2) Is there any indication on the deck or inside the liner of the proper
factory mounting location for genoa tracks, which I would add? I've seen a
boat of a different brand that doesn't have the tracks, but you can see the
"pre-molded" location in the deck, and there are access panels in the cabin
to reach the mounting bolts from underneath without having to cut holes in
the liner.  Does the C&C 35-2 have any similar indicators of the genoa track
location?

 

A week or so ago some folks were commenting on the value of this forum and
the contributions of the members, especially as it relates to the enhanced
value and desirability of C&Cs.  As a prospective C&C owner, I can affirm
that sentiment wholeheartedly. I've been on the hunt for my first "full
sized" sailboat for a couple of years, and subscribing to this forum has
greatly contributed to my sailboat education, and to the process of figuring
out what would be the "right boat" for me. Of the makes of boats that I've
considered, imo the C&C forum is by far the most active and educational
source to help a prospective owner navigate the variables of sailboat
buying.  This forum offers great reassurance to a newcomer like myself  that
there is knowledgeable advice available when issues inevitably come up
related to ownership and maintenance. Thanks again to everyone for their
advice and assistance.
