Hi Ryan, That's a very impressive list of projects, and a good-looking boat. As a data point, when I bought my 1972 30-1 hull #7 in January, I looked at comparables I could find online at the time - five of them from 1972 to 1976 - and the average price was $13,650 (range $9,500-$17,650).
I paid nearly twice what you're asking, for a 30-1 with spinnaker and good 38' triple-axle trailer, and recent projects done by the PO included: new batteries, solar panel, and charge controller; all through-hulls rebedded; new bottom paint; all winches rebuilt and backing plates installed; new head and holding tank; new head countertop; all cushions recovered; all windows re-sealed; and a new traveler. This year I installed a spare tire / carrier wheel on the trailer, refinished the boot stripe, buffed and waxed the topsides, painted the bottom, added curtains and throw rugs inside, replaced some running rigging, replaced the headfoil, installed a vang, added a masthead SailTimer wind instrument, and re-did the bunks and guides on the trailer. But in the future I will be doing a lot of the projects you've already done: rebedding the chainplates; rebuilding the mast step support and overhauling the bilge pump system; re-doing fuel tank straps and vent and wiring; refinishing the topsides; servicing the A4; rewiring; replacing compasses; resealing the keel joint; etc. For the difference between what I paid for my boat and what you're asking for yours, somebody could probably restore the interior of yours to the original layout, and they'd have a hell of a nice 30-1 with all the improvements you've made, and the instrumentation you've added, etc. I really like the tiller steering and boom-end sheeting to traveler on transom (which it looks like you have) - my boat is set up the same way, and it makes for a very roomy cockpit. It's also nice to have a pushpit gate (I don't), and your dodger and bimini are great additions - my boat doesn't have those. I hope somebody recognizes what a value your boat is, and I have to agree with you the 30-1 is tough as nails and famously sturdy. Mine is easily the fastest boat in my club when the wind is blowing 17 knots or more, even with an undersized main and a fixed prop. She stays on her feet under full sail when other boats have to depower.

Most likely a C&C landfall 38, a Cal 39, or an Ericson 38 if we can find one that fits our budget. Our max budget is about 30k - so, I am looking for a boat that needs tlc, but has good bones that I can fix and restore like I did my C&C 30. Rob, I'm sorry to post about another 30 for sale when I saw you just posted yours, but I believe your boat is a mkii, and it's a much later model, so I don't think we're after the same buyers... That said, we may be looking to buy the same boats... ;) My 1976 C&C 30 has been lovingly restored, with the below list of upgrades - many of which I posted about on here. I have her listed on Craigslist for $8450 - I know that's cheap. This is why - Her interior was renovated (very nicely) by a previous owner and she has newer Lexan portlights (just re-bedded and re-sealed this spring), so she won't fetch as much as a totally original looking 30, but she needs absolutely nothing to go right now.. We love her huge galley. We sail her regularly on weekends. She's a great boat - stiff as all heck and she handles the ocean passage from Brooklyn to NJ great. She's at a marina (paid thru Dec) in Island Heights, NJ. If she doesn't sell by Sept 24th I'll be sailing her back to Brooklyn where she will be at the Sheepshead Bay Yacht club. I'll be at the boat this Saturday preparing her for Hermine if anyone would like to see her.
