I purchased my 1981 C&C 34 in October 2012. Previously she spent time in Lake Champlain, the New River, NC, and Niceville, Fl before winding up in New Orleans. The latter 3 home ports would indicate year round afloat. I have hauled out annually for fresh anti fouling paint. During my ownership, I have had only 1 blister exposed by annual sanding. This annual sanding has not been down to the gel coat but should have revealed a blister problem. My belief based on experience with a 1971 C&C 27 with many many blisters is that if blisters haven't developed by now, your exposure will be minimal.
