Take a look at the C&C Brochures on the web site. You will see two versions of the early 30’s, one with end boom sheeting and the last one (d) with sheeting forward of the wheel. Maybe the difference is whether you had a tiller or wheel.

I'm wondering if that's "normal" for 30-1s (or other C&Cs for that matter). It doesn't really look normal judging by brochure photos and drawings. A previous owner had also raised the boom at least a foot from its original height, as the C&C itself did on later C&C 30s. When I get a new mainsail I'd like to increase its area by both returning the boom to its original height, and increasing the length of mainsail's foot. I'm thinking more area equals more power equals more speed. And I can live with a lower boom. Any words of wisdom to share? Thanks, Randy Stafford S/V Grenadine C&C 30-1 #7 Ken Caryl, CO
