Randy:
I shouldn't but in here because I am no authority on the C&C history but
I doubt the 'initials in the Drawn block' for your C&C 30 MK I are those
of Rob Ball as the 'designer'......I believe George Cuthbertson designed
30 MK I. I think Rob Ball joined the C&C company in the early 1980's,
maybe 1983.....Rob can correct me if I am wrong.

Hi Rob,
Since we’re discussing the 30 MK I on the mail list today, I thought
I’d share a blast from the past - a drawing of the sail plan for the
24’9” LWL Auxiliary Sloop (i.e. the 30 MK I), dated Dec. 22, 1970.
See

Are those your initials in the Drawn By block?
This drawing came in the records with my boat, 30 MK I hull #7 (HIN
30007972). A4, tiller steering, boom-end sheeting to traveler on
transom - love the cockpit room. Her first owner was Bob Andrews of
Traverse City, MI, who raced her in the Mac (the Chicago Yacht Club
Race to Mackinac). She spent her first 40 years in Traverse City
under four different owners, then moved to Colorado in 2012. I am her
sixth owner and have raced her weekly for three years at my local
club. At age 46 she’s still competitive and sharp-looking and a lot
of fun.
Thank you for the 30 MK I. I love that boat. I’ve had her up to 7.6
knots on GPS, and I’ve had her out in gale-force winds multiple times.
She’s stiff and stable as hell, and I love that. If you’re
interested, there are photos of my boat including various projects at

Thanks Again,
