Practical Sailor has a used boat buyer''s guide that you should get. They go into great detail on the C&C 33 and a number of other boats. The 33 Mk1 is starting to be a bit dated, but they still look good and balance nicely, despite their big jibs and tiny mains. The 34 also looks good and offers a bit more space. The layout on the 32 seemed a bit wierd to me, and I have heard (don''t know first hand) that they don''t perform on a par with other C&C models.
