Thanks Valiente!

Some great info there. I have heard that the C&C's are truly a fun boat to drive. I miss our Sabre 28' from time to time as she was a wonderful boat to sail, lots of room below decks, and relatively maintenance free.

Lots of boats out there, aren't they???

I just sold my C&C 24', and what a wonderful boat! It truly like to go to the wind, and yes did she heel! Rail in, not a problem, unless your trying to use the head, pour a drink or just don't like that sort of thing. Very fun boat and had much more room than one would think. Biggest downfall, IMHO is the lack of an inboard motor,companionway door to low to cockpit floor, and real head. Extremely well built and extremely fun to sail.

Replaced the C&C with a T-27, and again very happy with another great boat and company...Hummm, maybe that's why C&C and Tartan are now owned by the same. However, will not point anywhere near what that C&C would. However, the T-27 gives more room, with a real head, headroom, new universal "D"(oppossed to the A-4).

If I were thinking of buying another C&C, I would have to consider the Corvette 30'. What a nice looking classic style boat at a nice price point.

Enjoy

We looked at the Corvette as well. Quite an active owners association, and they seem to be raced quite often and quite hard. Not many of them out here on the east coast, though I would have to agree that their lines are very pleasing.
