Hi Shawn

 

FWIW, there is a designer’s commentary on the 34 by Rob Ball as the designer.  
I also believe he owns one here on Buzzard’s Bay.  There is also a posting 
today on this list of a 34 for sale very inexpensively.

Thanks, John. I like the 34, and it's the only C&C designed by Bruce King, 
whose designs I really like, in addition to Rob Ball and C&C. But there is only 
one near me on the West Coast. It's in Gig Harbour, Wa and the price is a bit 
more than our budget at 30K USD, although with a tiller, it might be a slow 
seller. Beautiful boat, and the tiller wouldn't bother me at all, except the 
cockpit seating is designed for a wheel. I don't know that there is a C&C model 
between 29 and 38 that wouldn't be a good fit; it's just finding one near me at 
a decent price is the problem.

 

This 1970 35-1 is interesting, and I will take a look if we go to Vancouver to 
see the 29 that is listed at the same broker (not on YW).

I understand the 35-1 is lighter with shorter LWL, rates a tiny bit slower, but 
maybe better in light air. The rudder is less effective than the later blade. 
Not sure of other differences aside from minor cosmetics.

Hi Shawn

 

Have you considered a C&C34??  Owned ours for 20 years and love it.  Sails like 
a dream.  Easily handled by 2.  Great layout.  Full headroom, enclosed head 
with shower, 3 burner propane stove with oven, large ice box, hot & cold 
pressurized water, full length bunks.  Cruises 4 well including their gear.  No 
generic build or design issues.  There are several on Yachtworld attractively 
priced.  The later hull numbers have a better interior finish (475 built).   Of 
course at this vintage individual condition may vary.

My 2 cents American
