C&C Yachts launched the Cc 131 in 2008 as a performance-oriented cruiser designed by Tim Jackett, representing the Canadian builder's commitment to blending speed with comfort. This 43-footer features a modern fin keel with bulb and spade rudder configuration, paired with a fractional sloop rig that delivers excellent upwind performance while maintaining manageable sail handling. The boat's moderate displacement of 16,975 pounds and substantial ballast ratio create a stable platform suitable for both coastal cruising and offshore passages. With a comfort ratio of 22.21, the Cc 131 strikes an appealing balance between performance and livability, making it well-suited for serious cruising sailors who don't want to sacrifice speed. The capsize screening formula of 2.02 indicates good stability characteristics for ocean sailing. Notable design elements include the efficient hull form that achieves an 8.18-knot hull speed and generous sail area that produces spirited performance in light to moderate conditions. The fiberglass construction ensures durability, while the 55-horsepower engine provides reliable auxiliary power. This yacht appeals to sailors seeking a capable blue-water cruiser with racing DNA that can handle extended passages while offering comfortable accommodations for cruising couples or families.
