Built during C&C Yachts' golden era from 1977 to 1981, this 29-footer represents the Canadian builder's commitment to performance-oriented design during the height of the IOR racing era. With 600 hulls produced over its five-year run, the Cc 29 found favor among sailors seeking a blend of racing capability and weekend cruising comfort. The design showcases classic C&C DNA with its fin keel and spade rudder configuration, delivering the responsive handling characteristics that made the builder's reputation. At 7,500 pounds with 2,700 pounds of ballast, the boat strikes a balance between stability and performance, while the masthead sloop rig with 422 square feet of sail area provides adequate power for both competitive sailing and coastal cruising. The Cc 29's moderate displacement and 6.51-knot hull speed make it well-suited for club racing, coastal exploration, and weekend getaways. Its comfort ratio of 20.37 suggests a relatively quick motion that favors performance over gentle cruising, while the capsize screening formula of 2.11 indicates reasonable stability for near-coastal sailing. The fiberglass construction has generally proven durable, making these boats attractive options for sailors seeking proven C&C engineering at an accessible size.
