Re: Stus-List Current C&C History

Hi Mike, Your Dad's wagon probably had the 351 (not the 350... a Chevy engine). With any luck it was a 351 Windsor and not the 351 Cleavland. Maybe even had a four barrel carb? Cheers, Russ Sweet 351 (35', mk-1 :) At 08:57 AM 07/11/2013, you wrote: Content-class: urn:conten

I think that is very true. Coquina is 40 years old and we have owned her for 36 of those 40 years. Racing and cruising have diverged so much that the market for a 2014 C&C 35 MK I basically does not exist. Joe Della Barba j...@dellabarba.com Coquina From: C

Hey guys, Reality check? We are probably not the best council for the new C&C company. Having sailed for 40 years and owned my present boat for 11 years. If I ever hit the lottery, I still wouldn't buy a new boat. For the same money, I can get twice the boat fully equipped and fitted out w sail

Actually, I don't have a big problem with the logo. In fact, since I only have 'Blue/Red/Blue' stripes on my main, it now looks a little bit more like the new logo. It always bugged me that my main said "C" and not "C C" but I would have had to move the stripes down too far... Of course, in

Re: Stus-List Current C&C History

How shallow is shallow draft? Anything over 6 feet is a total non-starter for any kind of cruising from here (Chesapeake) through the Bahamas. The old centerboard 40s and 41s drew 4'7" board up IIRC. I wish you the best of luck. ANY C&C beats no more by a lot. That said, the 30 is going to be

Re: Stus-List Current C&C History

Joe I know all about shallow. Our bay is 13 ft deep in most areas and 30 feet in its deepest part. The channel we must navigate to get in and out of our marina is only 2 ft deep at moon low tide. I draw 5 feet (actually 4.9 ft) and must time my arrivals and departures around the tides. So OK

Re: Stus-List Current C&C History

And while there’s plenty of water in Lake Superior, I’m happy for the 4’11” draft of the LF38; and I’ve never felt the boat was tender. The Kellenbaugh stability diagram supports that. So it IS possible to design for shallow draft, particularly if you don’t mind a long fin keel, as opposed to

Re: Stus-List Current C&C History

My 35 draws 5 foot 4 inches or so. I am aground in my slip at low tide with a strong north wind. I can *barely* get through Kent Narrows at high tide and likewise Knapp's Narrows. Getting into Queenstown involves a few bumps to get in. Places I anchor in Rock Hall and St. Michaels leave us with

Like Joe said, I don't expect to see many of the new 30's and 41's on the Miles River. 7.5 to 8 foot draft! My slip is 5 feet at low tide (once in a while, have to move the boat out to be ready for Wednesday night, as it may be stuck!). The saying around here (Chesapeake) is "if you haven't run
