Ted, when did you acquire the boat? In the old days…….15 years ago, you could have found the complete build file at South Shore Yachts in Toronto, many of us did that just to keep the history of our boats intact. After around that date, the remaining files were transferred to a Nautical archive museum also sign Canada (someone on this list knows the exact name) and subsequent efforts to obtain the files has met with varied success. Still worth a try.
On the documentation topic, my boat (a1977 C&C 38MKII) was left unrenewed for almost 15 years prior to my purchase. The build file did have good documentation, but the mortgage still left uncleared, was for a Bank in Boston that had since gone out of business or probably merged with someone else. There is a Documentation service in Winchester MA , Marie is well known for her skill at documentation and after about 4 months, she was able to find where the bank went, get the mortgage cleared and then get the Coast Guard to reinstate my documentation………. If you’re in that need, I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. Best, Ron C.
