Steve,
The base rating for the C&C 32 is 162 here on the Chesapeake. That sounds
pretty generous to me. From the waterline up, the 32 looks like a dead
ringer for my 35-3. I haven't seen one out of the water yet. Am I missing
something?

Also, I'm going to go against some of the recommendations .. the creature
comforts, hot water, head, etc .. on an old boat these systems will be old
and likely need updating (some of them can be downright gross!). Unless they
have been updated recently I wouldn't put a lot of value on old equipment. I
replaced the head, holding tank, thru-hulls, knot/depth, stereo, speakers
and all hoses on my boat after I bought it. I didn't want someone else's
toilet and the holding tank was stainless steel, a problem waiting to
happen. Now I have all new stuff and I didn't pay a premium for a boat that
had old stuff, or stuff I didn't want. One thing that's nice to have on a
used boat however is new sails. New sails are expensive! I guess I've split
my considerations into "fundamental" sailboat systems (rig, sails, deck,
motor, etc) and secondary, (water, toilet, cooking, etc). As long as the
fundamental stuff is A1 don't sweat the other stuff, it's pretty easy to
update most of that stuff... and then it's "your's".
Have a look at the 32s. If you aren't racing they are a good buy. Even if
you are racing, some people seem to do well with them. They are a good value
in terms of size for the money.... and a pretty boat to boot.
