Stus-List C&C History

2013-11-06 Thread TOM VINCENT
It looks like the new C&C is not the old C&C, it is now more of a racing 
machine. I can hardly imagine taking my family out for a day or a weekend on 
the new 30. I joined the C&C boat family in 1975 when I purchased a new 30, it 
was fast and still provided cruising for the family. I wish them success and 
look forward to some of their new designs, who knows what they will produce. 
Frolic II, 36', that I currently sail is becoming a little too much boat and I 
am considering going smaller to an Alerion 28 or the new Tartan Fan Tail, any 
thoughts?

The way I look at it is this: While the label may say Nautica, Polo, Ralph 
Lauren, etc., most garments are made by VF Industries, Kellwood or a few other 
manufacturers.  Essentially, many of the clothes we wear today are distributed 
by companies that are primarily marketers.

Looks like much the same in the boating industry where these guys build for J 
Boats, etc.  The Summit website says the King 40 is going to be built by 
Edgewater Yachts in Florida.  Maybe the Redline will also be built there.  
"Order up! One Redline".  Oops, was supposed to be a King 40?

Remember years ago an Oldsmobile was an Oldsmobile.  Now a Lexus is just a 
Toyota with a trim package.

WhateverDesign it, build it somewhere, slap a logo on it, market it, hope 
it sells.

Hey, I own a Brand X, designed by Jose in Brazil, assembled in Guatamala with 
parts from Hungary, sold by Jules in Virginia.  It's a global market place.

easily access. I think they should have a look at what Beneteau and others have 
on the market today and take note of what they are
 doing right.

2013-11-06 Thread Jerome Tauber
The Redline 41 is essentially a newer King 40 from Summit Yachts and was 
probably designed as a Summit prior to the purchase of the C&C name.  If you 
look at the Summit website you will see it is the same group that now owns the 
C&C brand.  http://www.summit-yachts.com/.The Redline 41drawing still has 
the Summit cove stripe which I assume will be changed to a C&C cove stripe for 
production.   All in all I think it will probably be a positive development for 
the C&C brand.   US Watercraft was building the J22, J80 and J105.  I wonder if 
they will continue to do so.   Jerry C&C 27-5.

WTF is up with that logo?

Also the 30 looks like any generic sport boat and the Redline 41 - with a
draft of over 8 feet - won't sell boat 1 to anyone with any cruising ideas
at all on the East Coast south of New England. That boat couldn't get within
half a mile of my slip.

2013-11-06 Thread Hoyt, Mike
Ok.  Not my Z10 but my Playbook.  Both about as mainstream as odd boats can be.

My optimistic take on this is that the new brand starts with a od daysailor 
that stays for many years but is not the typical c&c boat.  Am hoping more 
racer cruisers and particularly some under 40 ft.  These two designs look like 
they could be soto 30 and soto 40

On the bright side the original c&c's started as amazing racers and then 
expanded from there.

My pessimistic view is that they drop the racer/cruiser and just make another 
30 ft farr 30 / henderson 30 etc style race boat

We have a couple of these bridges here in Winnipeg. They are struck on occasion

alert the driver of the over height vehicle. They are on in the video and the

Lunenburg yacht club here in Nova scotia has a system in place for their club 
racing. It is described on their Web page I believe.

Basically they adjust handicaps throughout the season based on results. I 
believe they use a formula

Re the other. All phrf base handicaps are assumed to be for boats in optimal 
racing condition. In Nova Scotia we have added a recreational adjustment of +6 
that has had mixed results.

Hi Mike,

  those are pretty accurate comments, I would not take them as a rant.

  In the CS30 fleet I see a mix of "traditional" and "upgraded" boats. I take
the traditional boats as having the original rigging, dacron sails and standard
double braid lines. The upgraded boats are sporting new technology sails,
such as tape drive or string, new deck layouts, spectra type lines and things
like carbon fiber spin poles. My comment, poorly explained, was that the
traditional boats even in good conditions will find a 147 NFS rating
"aggressive". Maybe not the best word for it. I was trying to in a friendly
way to caution a new owner that work ( upgrades ) may be required to
be competitive in a CS30 fleet.

  The CS30s I race against, Synchronicity - S'fida - Uncorked, in things like
the LOSHRS look like they have done well with the upgrades. The CS30
design seems to be pretty good and responds well to the new go fast stuff.
These are the boats that are sailing to a 147 NFS rating.

  Your other comment about the "fudge factor" is an interesting discussion.
I am the PHRF handicapper at The National Yacht Club in Toronto. We invite
PHRF boats from other clubs to join us, so have about 100 boats in PHRF that
could compete in weeknight racing. So far there is no mechanism defined well
in PHRF to address the "traditional" vs "upgraded" split. It would be nice to
offer a modified rating to someone that mainly cruises and may not justify
the cost of upgrading their sail plan, but otherwise has a boat in good
condition and well crewed.

PHRF handicaps are set to measure the boats that are sailed and prepped 
well".  They are not set for boats that are not in good condition, are 
not prepped well and not sailed well.  Those boats are expeceted to and 
deserve to lose unless club handicaps have some sort of fidge factor in 
place for new sailors etc ... 
  
Sorry for the rant but your description of a boat that can win with

Had a nice single hand sail today.  Temp in high 70's to 80F, 10-12 knots 
breeze.  Was showing 6.7-7.0 knots SOG beam reaching.  

As always, listers are welcome to escape the cold and get a sailing fix anytime 
they are in the New Orleans area and I'm not out West skiing.

I don't believe the bridge has 11' 8" clearance as indicated by the sign. 
That's more than the height of most ceilings in a home. Don't you think that 
most of those vehicles would have stopped if they were higher than 11' 8"? I 
wonder where that's located.

General expected clearance is 14'. Hard to tell whether there is other signage

John,

 

It sounds like 200 lbs. of beer in the galley might just solve your
problem.  But seriously, equipment added can cause balance problems.  Be
sure of your measurements, then move something to balance things out.
Batteries are heavy and not too difficult to move, if you have another
location to port where they might fit.

So in a near empty boat, my C&C 121 (40') has a pretty significant list
to starboard.  The basic tanks are nicely placed to balance each other
with the exception of the holding tank which is pretty far to starboard.
I assume that would be offset by loading in the galley (port).  The
prior owner did add a large inverter (about 50 lbs) and two additional
batteries (150 lbs) both pretty far outboard. 

 

So before I go nuts moving batteries or installing weights, is the list
really caused by the additional 200lbs outboard or is this  more likely
the keel?  Any thoughts?

 

John
