Thanks Pat Sounds just like me. Not exactly a racer and not a cruiser ... I have been looking around for a boat that sails like a racer and has the amenities inside that can do limited cruising. Sort of like the old J30 concept. In my mind a Farr 30 has enough interior room that there could be some interior that is usable ... That sort of idea. the 101 strikes me as a nice compromise ... decent accomodations, quarterberths rather than aft cabin is great for crew, after a race crew can gather below, decent performance and a modern sprit design- and way better than the old designs has lots of on deck and cockpit room. .. and after all is said and done the owner could cruise for a week on it. A friend sold his Santana 35 and bought a 1D35. A comment he made a year later is that he misses hanging out on the boat after a race. Since there is no usable interior the crew basically takes off ... However is expensive and as you say not really a racer nor a cruiser so will be a tough sell ...

It is like they were trying to be too many things for different people. The doghouse forward just makes the boat sit funny when viewed from the forward quarter. The cockpit is big though because the cabin is forward, but that comes at the expense of some room down below. Not exactly a racer and not exactly a cruiser. I did think the fit and finish was nice, but it certainly isn't as aesthetically pleasing as older C&C designs in my humble opinion.

Looks to be a nice design and as per C&C has combined quite a nice interior with good performance. Nice to see is a fractional rig with sprit as well ... Wondering what those who have sailed or toured the 101 thought of it. Is high up on my list of boat sto buy after I win the lottery ....
