Andrew I looked up the article you referenced since I find that special something about the 40 that draws my attention every time. I will someday own one just not ready yet.
My favorite line of the article, and so true as I do it almost time I leave my mooring to come home: " Finally, I have to say again that no matter what, no matter how impractical, my boat has to be beautiful. As my old dad always used to say, "There's no point owning a boat if you don't pause at the oars and gaze at her every time you leave her." " My own take on this theme is that if YOU don't believe you have the prettiest boat in the anchorage, you will always lust after the one you don't own.....

Just had a delightful sail under spinnaker all the way up Buzzards Bay. I was asked to write an article for sail magazine on my ideal cruising boat; I ended up describing the C&C 40 almost to a tee. (Before I bought this one.) The short answer is, I love the boat and so does my wife!
