I sailed on a friends Cat 27 and it was very narrow; more like a Pearson 26 in
size. The C&C 26 is a very wide boat, so much more room.RonWild CheriC&C

I've not been on a 27, but I am assuming they will be too small for our needs,
as that it what everyone says about the Catalina 27 (which I also haven't been
aboard). I liked the 26, but it was the first boat I looked at, and everything
since has been larger. The CS27 seemed pretty cramped, but the double settee
was also pulled out when I looked at it. The awful v-berth/head door
contraption on that one turned me off. I think the Nicholson 31/35 sliding
doors are the best solution I've seen, although need to make sure they are
locked in rough seas!
I don't know how accurate this is, but it shows the 27MK2 as very tender, while
the Mk1 is very stiff. Not sure where the others fall.
