Most of what Josh said is correct. However, all symmetrical spinnakers I have seen have the numbers on both sides of the spinnaker, so you don't have to be concerned about which side is port and which side is starboard.Before you buy any necessary gear for the spinnaker, learn about end for end gy

As an owner of a 1986 44 I am very interested in the results of the survey on your 44. I have had mine for 10 yrs and all is good. Feel free to ask me questions. Fred Hazzard S/V Fury C&C 44 Portland, Or On Jul 1, 2017 7:36 PM, "Dan via CnC-List" wrote: > I already did that on the hull and it

As I understand it C&C has had few failures that weren't caused by damage (collisions) or bad POs. The only wet sections of my boat are the rudder. Had it rebuilt. Welds looked immaculate. 4 years later it is wet again. Core of my rudder is made of medium density foam not balsa. Josh On Jul 1,

I already did that on the hull and it sounds good and crisp. The topsides are hard to read because many areas are only 8-12 inches wide and you don't get the same sounds from those spots. The wider flatter sections sounded ok though. Dan On Sat, Jul 1, 2017 at 11:20 PM, Josh Muckley via CnC-List

It sounds like a symmetrical spinnaker. The luff and leach are the same length... In fact they are interchangeable depending on the tack of the boat. You'll need a spinnaker pole roughly equal to the "J" length (head stay to the mast). The pole is set parallel/in line with the boom, jaws facing

Sorry if this was sent twice - the first time I tried it I was not registered but had no responses... I'm looking at a 1986 C&C 44 to buy. Before I get into paying for a survey to check the core out with a moisture meter I'm wondering if any 44 owners out there have had any problems with wet core?

OK, seems like a dumb question.  We spread out the cruising spinnaker on our lawn today, having not put it up before on our new (to us) C&C 37/40+/.  It is in a spinnaker sock.  The sheets were in the bag, but not attached to the sail.  It is made by UK.  Along one edge is a bright green strip.
