If the boat has the Atomic 4 engine with raw water cooling, I would not bother with a water heater. We had one and threw it out ages ago. A raw water cooled engine will not run hot enough to get decent hot water and if you get a hotter thermostat salt and minerals precipitate out and clog the cooling passages.

The resale value usually does not include any extra equipment. You can add instruments, A/C, special comfort features and the selling price would not change. You may find a buyer sooner, but it won't make the price higher. Marek (in Ottawa).

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 Dwight Veinot 1974 C&C 35 MKII, Alianna St. Margaret's Bay, NS _____ From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com] On Behalf Of andrew rothweiler Sent: April 19, 2014 3:59 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com <mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com> 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. Andy R
