I have a 74' 33-foot three quarter tonner, which I believe is the same hull
and sail plan as the MK-1. I do believe my keel is longer, though. She draws
6'6" and the MK-1 is listed at 5'6".  Layout is different but I don't think
that would have much effect on performance. It is a superbly stiff and
stable ride on Narragansett Bay, which is not a lot different from Buzzards
Bay. She handles 20kts easily.gusts, too - even close hauled and points
extremely well.  I would recommend that boat any day. Something like that
would also probably fit in the budget. I would trade mine for an MK-1 just
for the far more comfortable layout and headroom forward.

A good friend of mine would like to buy their first "big boat".  We sail out
of Buzzards Bay which I affectionately call the "Washing Machine" resulting
from the Bay's shallow water and strong afternoon S'Westerlies.   

Their budget is around 15K and because of the aforementioned washing
machine, need a stiff boat around the 30-34' size.  In addition to size, if
my memory is correct there are certain "Marques" within a specific size
range (33?) which are stiffer than others and would be better suited to the
area.  

So what size and what "Mark" version do you folks think would be
appropriate?

Thanks in advance!

There's a C&C 40 here on Lake Ontario named "Vatican II
<http://www.boatdealers.ca/boats-for-sale/134805/cc-40-custom-centerboard-be
lleville-ontario> " that's been for sale for a while. It's a centerboard
model and nicely outfitted for cruising. Any connection?

Has a big crucifix on both sides. Not really my cup of tea but unique
anyway.

My dad met a fellow in Vancouver who sold him on the C&C 27...and the brand.
The fellow's name was Mike Pope, so naturally enough, his boat was called
Vatican.

My first boat, C&C 30MKI was named Trysail.  The previous owner sold Flying
Scotts (I think) at one time so it was a play on words.  She still carries
that name.

 

My new boat, C&C 30 MKII, was named Lagniappe when I purchased her.  Talk
about a mouth full and a triple repeat on the spelling when calling a
bridge, marina, or vessel.  After the delivery trip North from Annapolis to
Mystic I changed the name.  I got tired of repeating myself.  Didn't like
the name myself, but anyone from New Orleans seemed to love it, reminded
them of home.

 

So I renamed my current boat HANUMAN.  Seems simple enough and I'm still
amused that most folks can't pronounce it, nor spell it.  HA NEW MAN.

 

Hanuman is a very prevalent character in the Ramayana and his picture is
probably hanging on the wall in every Indian restaurant in the world.
Millions of kids watch him in cartoons.  He's carved into every early
Buddhist/Hindu temple across Asia.  I just happen to be on the wrong side of
the world now and I guess I spent to much time in Asia.

 

Oddly enough, Hanuman is also the namesake of one of the J Class yachts.
The owner has spinnaker graphics similar to the tattoo on my leg. :)
Fortunately, I had the tattoo longer so I can say he stole my idea..lol
It's the Khmer version of Hanuman carved into the the temples of Cambodia,
Laos, Thailand and Burma/Myanmar.

 

Anyway, the Ramayana is one of those books everyone should read, or at least
try to, once in their life.

 

I hope I didn't put anyone to sleep with this tale....
