Cc 36 1

Introduced in 1977 during C&C Yachts' golden era of performance cruiser design, this 36-footer represents the Canadian builder's commitment to creating fast, seaworthy boats that excel in both racing and cruising applications. With its fin keel and spade rudder configuration, the design prioritizes responsiveness and pointing ability, making it well-suited for competitive sailing while maintaining the comfort needed for extended coastal cruising. The boat's impressive sail area to displacement ratio of 18.35 reveals its performance-oriented nature, delivering spirited sailing in light to moderate conditions. Despite this emphasis on speed, the substantial 5,000-pound ballast and moderate beam of 11.50 feet provide reassuring stability. The comfort ratio of 23.8 indicates a relatively stiff motion that favors performance over ultra-comfortable cruising, though it remains suitable for weekend getaways and coastal passages. Built during C&C's reputation-building years, this model benefits from solid fiberglass construction and thoughtful design details that have helped many examples remain active on the water decades later. The masthead sloop rig offers straightforward sail handling, while the hull's traditional proportions and proven design make it an attractive option for sailors seeking classic C&C performance characteristics without the complexity of newer designs.
