To Jim and all C & C 38 owners... See below from the "wise old C &C designer"

I’m getting old you know , . . . and I don’t have Jim’s e-mail address . . . The comments he makes don’t fit my impression of the two 38’s that I’m thinking of . . . To me the Mark one was an IOR One Ton hull made into a racer cruiser . . . The Mark Two was the first design I did entirely on the computer and it is/was wildly different from the Mark One, and it is the widest boat (for its’ size) that I ever did, so the comments don’t fit . . . The beam on Mark1 is 12.16 and the Mark 2 is 12.79 . . . So, there must be two versions of the original 38, that I’m forgetting, and a change of rudder and ballast is a realistic possibility – but the beam would be the same on both, and for sure the two keels cannot be that different. I show the ballast as being 5980 lb. for the Mark 1 . . . So – I’d like more details . . . . I am quite sure we did not build even a hundred of what I think of as the mark 2 . . . .
