Ron,

Essentially, Ford still has a member of the Ford family at the helm of a 
company that has “evolved” as automotive and transportation designs have become 
modernized.  If Hyundai was to “buy” the brand name “Pontiac” and renamed the 
Hyundai Elantra a “GTO” or “Firebird”, would it be a Pontiac or a Hyundai?   I 
submit that it would still be a Hyundai.  

The C&C Brand today exists only as a marketing tool for the founders of the now 
defunct Summit Yachts and whilst the current C&C 30 has found a niche in the 
“mini-GP” owner-driver market, it has far more DNA with previous Mark Mills IRC 
 Summit Yachts designs than any boats ever built in Niagara on the Lake. 

It will be interesting to see if the current C&C 30 holds its value and has the 
same desirability of the C&C Yachts that we associate with the brand.

Designers change, methods change even at the same company (Ford no longer makes 
model T's); as long as it's the same company banner with the same level of 
excellence and commitment to quality, it's a C&C.  Evolution can be a good 
thing.

I would love to have the newest 30 to race with!

Not the original C&C.  Those are epoxy hull with carbon mast built by Fairport 
Yachts.    Jerry

Was just looking at sail area to displacement ratio for C&C's on 
sailboatdata.com <http://sailboatdata.com/>  and was surprised to see that my 
little 27 mark v and the 34/37R have the highest SA/D of any C&C's built by the 
original company other than the SR models.  Jerry J&J C&C 27 MKV.
