Martin, I am an ex C&C owner having sold my 33-II and replaced it with a Saga 
35 which isn’t a C&C but was built by many of the same craftsmen and suited our 
needs better.  I still read this list because I still think C&C’s are some of 
the best boats out there and I receive many good tips and advice. I also still 
peruse the want ads to see what is out there.  Here are a couple listings for 
43 Customs to update the whereabouts of the boats.
 https://www.sailboatlistings.com/view/43367 and

https://ca.boats.com/sailing-boats/1974-43-ft-c-c-bruckmann-built-custom-1974-2003-2013-6343754/
  I think it says Usual Suspect on the side,presumably after her refit, 
although the colour doesn’t seem to match,

...and for Ken Heaton’s benefit,

JP,  I attempt to keep track of the 70’s era 43s. Is Alethea the one mentioned 
in the Sailing Anarchy discussions from 2012 and 2014? Also, and pardon my lack 
of geographic knowledge, which Peninsula are you referring to?

 

Here is a brief note I have from the Sailing Anarchy discussion:

 

SA 2012 and 2014 C&C 43 thread titled Allthea

This one is serious old school, CCA type design (I think). Found one web page 
with the following quote, "Cuthbertson also recalls fondly the C&C Customs 43, 
examples of which twice won Class B at SORC."

This one was launched as Allthea (spelling maybe Althea, hard to read on the 
builders placard).

 

Below here is the list of the “Limited Edition” 43s I have from a few years 
ago.  I expect there have been more than a few changes in ownership and 
location since I put this list together.  There are more than 15 hulls listed 
because I have not been able to trace all ownership changes.

 

Calypso hull #1 (ex Arieto, Phantom, Esta Es) Seattle/Port Ludlow WA

Carmanah hull #2 (ex Destination) Bainbridge Island, WA (was on SoPac cruise 
circa 2015)

MmeCaprice, Great Lakes, now blue hull color (hull #3)(David Probable)

 

Evening Star (now in San Fran) Ex Dry Fly from Nova Scotia (originally AVANTI 
built for Sid  Bregman, Toronto architect, who sold her to Christopher Pratt, 
Newfoundland.  She is the subject of one of Chris's best known serigraphs 
"Yacht Wintering".)

 

Epic (Seattle, on So Pac cruise circa 2009?)

 

Pretty Woman, last known in San Fran?

Finesse II, last known in San Francisco?

Hellion, Bloomfield Hills, MI. ?

Kintana Bayview, Detroit (per SA Dec 2011)

Usual Suspects, Bronte, Ontario

 

ex Margo, Boston last known port, Chip Johns last known owner (circa 2010) but 
he sold it.

Sanfire (maybe) 1974, in Florida in 2010 for sale (was in PNW 70’s and 80’s, 2 
Vic Maui's)

Awesome, New Jersey last known location?

Summertime, maybe Chicago?

Long Reach, Bronte Ontario, (hull 15, 1975)

Rampage RCYC

Tiger, mid Atlantic family cruise early 2000’s

 

Opus, Vanc BC last known port (a newer 1980’s custom version, not one of the 
“Limited Edition” 43s)

 

JP, do you know of any updates to this list?
