    C&C boats are very popular along the southern shore of Lake Ontario. I’ve be crewing on a 29’ C&C for the past 11 years. Average age of our crew is 67. The boat has performed very well for the most part with us winning countless races and many season championships. In my opinion it is a very solid boat especially in windy conditions. Thanks for providing the history about these boats. I’m loving this series you are now producing. Looking forward to the next boat review..

    I bought a 84 C&C landfall before purchase I had a survey with not even 1 wet spot On entire hull and deck. Compliments to her previous owner with the start of my 2nd season on lake Michigan could not be happier.

    I cut my teeth on a C and C 35 racing out of the RCYC as a young teenager in the early '70s. Fond memories. I remember navigating for the skipper with a handheld radio direction finder and plotting with a pencil on to charts. Sweet.

    Hi folks, that is a very enjoyable video. Well done!
    I own a C&C 35 Mk3 and cruise her on the coast of BC out of Vancouver.
    She was a one owner boat when I bought her and had never been raced which I think is fairly rare amongst C&C's. That was a strong selling point for me. The hull, deck and rig were in very good shape but as to be expected for a 30 year old boat her systems were tired. I have since completed a major refit including repower. She is now set up to my liking for coastal cruising. I really enjoy her sailing characteristics and warm, comfortable teak interior.
    Best regards,
    AL HESTER
    Pacific Ranger
    1988 C&C 35 Mk 3.

    Great info...George had his C&C 25 that my Dad looked after, docked next to us on Grand Bahama, where we lived aboard a Hughes 27, in 68-69. Fast forward to ‘85 where I started my sailing career delivering C&C’s for North/South Yacht Charters from NYC to BVI. This is before GPS, no knot meter, or any electronics. Boats had never been in the water. No shake down.They trucked them from Niagara On The Lake, we stuck the keel on, put the rig up, and would depart the next night, into freezing conditions of North Atlantic before decent weather forecasting. Got knocked down in Gulf Stream Christmas Day on C&C 41. Almost died. But boat saved us. It was a love affair ever since. Bought 2 yr old C&C 37 XL in ‘92 in BVI, named her Mustang, raced Caribbean circuit with my all women’s team, kicked butt, launched my delivery business after having been charter captain, instructor, charter co manager. 35 yrs later I own a C&C 27 MK V, built the year I first started deliveries. It’s parked in front of my house in Nova Scotia and I Captain a Sunreef 74 Catamaran for work. C&C’s set me on my path. Now looking at a C&C 44 to buy and sail again across South Pacific. Love these boats for their design, workmanship, seaworthiness. Signing up crew soon.

      I'm assuming you would be sailing out of NS, might be able to crew for you to Panama. I've been giving some thought to crewing for a bigger blue water boat. Reasonable amount of experience. I own a 27. DM me on TG if you want.

  • @carloszx12
    @carloszx12 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I was 16 years old, standing at the dock in Weymouth, Massachusetts, as the local C&C came in after the races. It was a good half hour before anyone else came in... smiles all around!

  • @sailboatparbleu4545
    @sailboatparbleu4545 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I have a C&C Landfall 38. She's a rocket ship, and handles strong winds and lumpy seas better than most. This is my 3rd C&C. I previously had a 27, and a Redline 25. All three are excellent sailboats.

    • @whynotjusttry5401

    @charleslinart5294 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for this video. Bought a C&C MKIII after watching this video. Best money I ever spent. I've never sailed on a more perfect boat, and it's an honor to own and captain her.

    I have to admit, when I first saw the title of your first boat lesson, Beneteau, I yawned. Wow I was pleasantly wrong- this series has been absolutely fascinating. Love the history lessons and vintage photos. Great work Tim!

  • @WildRoverSailing
    @WildRoverSailing 3 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Great video! Theres so much more to the story but this covers a lot. When Rob Ball became C&C's principal designer, the yachts evolved into amazing fast, pretty and very comfortable boats. One of my favourite comments I ever saw came from Robert Perry on the design of the C&C 34-2 "I wish I had designed it" I love my Ball designed C&C 27-5.

  • @wb2pcv
    @wb2pcv 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Yes, met Cuthbertson. And knew Hinterhoeller. How weird is that? (I grew up in upstate NY, family owned a number of C&C's) Other innovations: the extruded aluminum slotted toerail, but especially the molded (sorry, moulded) inward-turning flange for deck attachment. Great summary, BTW!

  • @Apweng33

  • @robcampbell579
    @robcampbell579 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I had a C&C 34 for 38 years. Not their best model (warped by the IOR rule), but a great boat for club racing and comfortable for cruising. Waterline less than 26 feet, so not a race horse, but pretty good in light air. Their toughest boats were the 30 and 35 footers of the mid 70's. In weather that had me reefed and on a #3, a 30 would pass me with full main and a 150 Genoa up.

  • @richardredling3291
    @richardredling3291 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have a 1977 C&C 24 which I have owned for 33 years. I am the second owner and enjoy day sailing on it as much as the first year that I purchased it. Great boats.

  • @billycarter1430
    @billycarter1430 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I owned a 1973 C&C 39 for 28 years, filled with racing and cruising. Some of my best memories of my life were on that boat.
    If I Had to do it over again I'd of bought her earlier. Great boat.

    We bought my dad's 1981 Newport 28 C&C. She'd been neglected after his death but now that I found her and she's back in the family, we have some big plans and lots of love for her. Can't wait to get her out of the marina.

    @mikefromchelsea8119 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Love my C&C 27 Mk3. Perfect combination of sailing quality and beautiful lines. I’ve heard the real test of love is if you look back at her as you walk away after docking.. and i always do. Thanks for putting this together. Our club here in Ottawa has a large collection of C&Cs. Come visit.

  • @charleslanning7017
    @charleslanning7017 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I sail in Ottawa, and between NSC and BYC there must be over 40 C&C 27s (Mk I-IV especially). I share a 27 MkV now, and we owned a Redline 25 before that. Boats don't age here near as much as they do in the southern US and the Caribbean, but upkeep keeps them out of landfills nonetheless! My Kirby 25 was clearly a price point boat but the C&C 27 is lovely, well designed and a joy to sail. It's by far the nicest (and newest!) sailboat I've ever owned. Cheers

  • @DavePilotCH47

  • @Early8Q
    @Early8Q 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Following a Paceship 29, I was schooled on a C&C 29 in the maritimes. Later came a 35/3, actually the proto type for the Challenge Canada series. I traveled to the US with her one summer for some fun and racing. Later, my father bought Hans Fogh’s 37r which to this day is a legendary craft in my mind; holy cow she was fast and stiff. She can be found on a fair bit of Canadian silver. And we had so stinking much fun her, she is burned deeply in my memory. Meantime I was also racing on a 34r on Long Island sound; she was a far more challenging boat to sail well, but when “hooked up” she was rewarding. I have watched the IOR 34 and 40 go fast and crash all over the place.... I think the early 35/1 and 39 are my favorite classic C&Cs; that sheer line is unmistakable.

    Good Vid Tim. I would assume back in the early sixties the Leafs might (?) have been winning (?) certainly if playing the Habs ! (Being a good Chatham boy you would have been rooting for the Wings).
    Living in NOTL and the old C & C site has been cleared away and has a new conference centre and park that is part of the Pillar and Post Hotel.
    Back in the early 80's I sailed on a Landfall in the Florida Keys, one of the great things about it was you could stuff a whole bunch of people on it and not feel overly cramped. (at least back then) .

    @robertmazza3640 3 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    I was a little concerned by the Epoch Times advertisement at the beginning of the video, but after I got by that I was pleased with your review of C&C Yachts. However, there were a couple of historical inaccuracies. It was Cuthbertson who was the driving force in the creation of Cuthbertson & Cassian. Cuthbertson had opened Canadian Northern many years before to handle both design and brokerage. With the departure of his partner Peter Davidson in the late 50s, and with receiving the design commission for Innishfree in 1958, he went into design full time and took on Cassian in 1961, I believe, to create Cuthbertson & Cassian. As you say, C&C Yachts was created in 1969, based on the success of Red Jacket. However, Connolly's previous boat was the CN-35 (CN for Canadian Northern) Carousel, not Invader. Cuthberson assumed the presidency of C&C in 1973 and handed the design responsibilities to Rob Ball. I worked in the design office under Cuthbertson & Cassian starting part time in 1968, then under Rob in C&C Design Group until I left in 1985 to join Mark Ellis, and then Hunter Marine. Thank you for your mention of the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes at Kingston which holds the entire Cuthbertson and Cuthbertson & Cassian drawing archives from the 1940s to 1973, and all the C&C design archives from 1973 to 1996. Red Jacket herself was recently bequeathed to the Marine Museum by the late Peter Milligan, and will be a welcome addition to the Cuthbertson & Cassian, and C&C Yachts collections at the Museum. The goal will be to maintain her in the water and make her accesable to interested sailors who appreciate her historical significance to the history of sailing in Canada. By the way, the marine Museum also holds the George Hinterhoeller design archives. Again, a good synopsis of the history of a remarkable group of people.

      I’m concerned that an advertisement can rattle you so much and/or affect your ability to appreciate the content that follows. I remember when people could observe something that they disagreed with, and simply move on with their lives.
      I fail to understand why mentioning it was necessary or why people feel entitled to critic ridiculous details publicly that really have nothing to do with the content. Also, I see the irony in me feeling the need to comment negatively on your comment!!! What has happened to us? We are savages!!!

    @michaelrowe2425 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi, My first introduction to coastal sailing was on a c&c 25 out of Gloucester Ma. It was owned by a good friends father. This was back in the 80’s. I believe it was a 25’. I remember the arrow detail and how the father(ex navy Captain, submariner) when teaching me how to sail would beam with pride. I was very lucky as my friend, myself and another friend sailed her down to the Americas cup in Newport, RI, must have been about 83,(Aussie bulb keel controversy days) we were out for approx 14 days, Nantucket, Martha Vineyard, Newport, those are great memories and I loved that boat. We did that trip again the following summer. Thank you for the history lesson, I had no idea about the racing history. My love of sailing was born on a proper C&C! Keep up the good work. TY.

  • @IamPreacherMan
    @IamPreacherMan 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    We campaigned a 30’ C&C with a shoal draft. Then we cut it off and put a fin bulb on it. It was a fun stiff boat.

  • @jackthayer904
    @jackthayer904 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I loved hearing about the history of c&c, I grew up on a somewhat rare c&c 35 mk3 wing keel named little wing II in southern Ontario. It was in pristine shape when my family owned it stained and buffed to perfection and it did very well at the annual c&c owners regatta at national. I haven’t seen it in about 10 years but the c&c fleet is still going strong on Lake Ontario.

  • @jeffskingley6042
    @jeffskingley6042 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @bertram46
    @bertram46 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have been a power boater since I was a child and Lake Erie. However in the single scene I was in a relationship with somebody who raced out of the Cleveland yacht club and we crewed. She had been doing it for several years as well as everyone else on the boat many from childhood.
    What a great way assuming you have a good bunch of people to learn how to sail be in the competitive situations and learn a lot sailing is now in my blood I absolutely love it.
    Especially racing.
    I have watched your entire series of lady K absolutely love it keep it going

  • @donaldcheatham

  • @Daviddickson
    @Daviddickson 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for doing this video. Lots of interesting historical facts that I didn't know, and we've owned 2 of them. Our first was the 27' which introduced us to the speed of the modern fin keel FRP yachts after our clinker built Gaff rigged cutter.
    We then owned a 1982 32 footer we bought out of the Vancouver Boat Show that year and lived aboard her in False Creek for 4 or 5 years.
    We never raced her, but always raced her 😅🤣😂, you know what I mean.
    She turned heads when ever we sailed into a new anchorage, even from the old salts.
    That year, I believe, introduced Rod Rigging to the ordinary production yacht owners, and it was very cool.
    We made the choice between buying the boat, or a house in Vancouver, (they were the same price) and to this day we don't regret a minute of it. Would do it again.
    Now in our 70s, I have a little 20' twin keeler that lives in a tent across the street, that I'm restoring in retirement, but we miss our C&Cs.

Of course boats are always work but she is fully operational and will soon be confortable because we just ordered new upholstery so summer 2021 will be a hit! I love my C&C30!

    First sail on a C&C was a 33' night time sail on Lake Mich. w/ waves so big the city wud disappear when we went into the troughs. Fell in love with a new 48 Landfall, sailed it 7 years, usually six months at a time all pnts from N Maine to GT. Fast and survived a double norther that sank several others off the Carolinas. Damage but survived. Wud pnt 30 true and cud pinch down 2 degrees w/o major speed loss. Wud never hesitate to recommend. Note: Walter Conkrite came on board while I was in Edgar Town and almost cancelled his order on his new boat in favor of C&C. My next after a hiatis was a Mason 54, not quite the ability to point, hydraulic steering less a joy but, hey, whose at the wheel is you are seriously cruising! Both a bit to carry at 6.5 plus draft in the Bahamas but a comfortable sit while waiting on the tide.

    A friend of mine just sold his C&C 61 to a mutual friend of ours who is currently on her in Kemer Turkey, her name was Sorcery, you may have heard of her especially during THAT Fastnet. An absolutely incredible boat to sail and could have a whole episode to herelf, thanks for all your work man, excellent research and excellently delivered.

    Great story, Lazy Lightning was a Newport 41, the mold was was a C&C Redline. Very few boats could point as high as as she could. The changes that Capital Yachts made her a great boat. My wife cried all day when we sold her

    I have always loved C&Cs. I grew up sailing the south shore of Lake Ontario so I became very familiar with them. I have been told that some of the later versions did not have the same build quality. But a Landfall 38-43, 41 K/C or a 43 that was not built as a strait race boat are on my list when the time comes. The only issue with C&Cs from a cruising perspective is that the tend to be deep draft. Like over 6 foot/ 2 meters. That would rule out large portions of the Exumas. But otherwise they sail like scalded cats. So I agree they are great boats. Might own one myself one day.

  • @binghamhumber
    @binghamhumber 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for the great vid! C&C27 Mk III (sail 553 1975) here. I'm not a racer, but damn - the thing can go. And points pretty high. For a 45-year old boat, it's in terrific condition. If I ever upgrade, the only thing I'd look for is a C&C 34 or 35. (A little more headroom, a slightly bigger galley...)

      Ian Adkins,
      We have the same problem here in the USA. Our investment types and corporate raiders have sold us out to the communist Chinese for short term profits. As Kruschev stated in the early 1960s, the greedy western business leaders will give the communists all the rope they need to hang the west with. Maybe We The People need to set the financial community straight before they sell out what little is left of our middle class.

She had a really large main.. the E (boom length) was 13' .. swept back spreaders with a small jib. A typical 80's production boat

    I have only seen one C&C it was the only boat not sold at the Florida insurance auction that week. I was transporting boats back then. I I thought as nice as it looked it would sale fast. However it never got a opening bid. So I loaded up that day with a massive magnum if I recall. hauled it to New Jersey and their picked up to be rebuilt and took 47' wooden sail boat back to GA.

    I owned a 42 foot, C&C designed aluminum boat built in 1968 (the year I was married) in Toronto. I was told it was the original design for the 42 ft Redline serries., but I don't kinow for sure. It was an aluminum hull with fiberglass skin to fair it out. It raced in Lake Ontario untill the rules changed and it was not cometitive any more. It was bought by a couple from Ottowa and sailed through the Carribean. I bought it from them and also sailed in the Caribean for 5 years. As you said in another video, IOR boatse are not the most comfortable cruising boats.
