We have at least one more 35 MK III that has gone to Bermuda recently on this list too IIRC. C&Cs are not disposable yachts that fall apart ;)

The boat was solid in crappy conditions in a race where 7 boats retired. Doing Bermuda again, and have no hesitation about the integrity of the boat.

Subject: Re: Stus-List Vancouver Area C&C 35/36 search questions My 45 year old C&C 35 doesn't have a cored hull but I'd sail it anywhere anytime. Raced it upwind in 20+ knot breeze and 4-6 foot seas. Boat basically said "Is that all you got?" Spent 2+ weeks cruising it leisurely on the Gulf Coast. Enjoyed every minute. C&C designed and constructed their cored hulls very well. Unless some idiot drilled a hole through the core and didn't properly protect the core, there shouldn't be any issue. Like you said, a good survey will tell. Nuf said. Dennis C.

Have heard the good/bad and I’m told it all comes down to a good surveyor (if anyone knows a good surveyor with C&C knowledge please send them my way!) and I have to say I’m a bit apprehensive about a 30+ year old boat with cored hull and topsides. But I’m curious what others have to say about this topic or if there’s anything they might expand upon outside of what I’ve noted above.
