I have a 1990 34+, but have never seen the stepped transom.
Glen D. The difference between + and XL versions was in the optional (read more expensive) hull layup on the XL (which was the same layup used on the R), which used a bit more Kevlar Hybrid Fabric and used Aircraft Grade Pre-Impregnated Balsa Core in place of Marine Grade Balsa core, so was lighter and perhaps a bit stronger. It was just another option on the order sheet. Most XLs were also ordered with the taller tapered mast with three spreaders so that is the usual way to tell them apart. The order sheet gives the details if you have a copy of the original. Look for the 'R' Racing layup option to see if it is ticked off. If you are lucky enough to have the Build File all the details are in there. In one C&C brochure for the 36 Series from 1994/1995 they say the XL mean 'eXtra Light'. The 36 Series is what they called the 34/36 in marketing materials after C&C's restructuring in 1993.

Some plus models were ordered with short rigs and some with two spreader rigs and some with three spreader rigs. There were several keels offered, 7' 4", 5' 3" wing, and later a centerboard version. In '96, Mars Metals cast a 6' 3" keel for the boat. Last I heard Mars lost the molds for the wing keel but still have the molds for the 6' 3" and 7' 4" models. The difference between Plus and XL remains a mystery to me as I've seen several versions of each.
