John Read Legacy III 1982 C&C 34 Noank, CT From: John McCrea via CnC-List Sent: Thursday, November 03, 2022 10:01 PM To: 'Stus-List' <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: johnmcc...@comcast.net Subject: Stus-List Re: C&C 35 MK I 170% The good thing about the older design is that when cruising, you can sail with just the genoa. I drive some friends crazy with their modern euro boats that cannot sail without the main up. I am pushing 7 knots, towing a dinghy with a 135 genoa in a 15 knot breeze and they can not keep up under full sail. Most modern boats today fall into that category.

My boom is very small compared to the size of the boat, and my mast appears to be placed a bit forward of normal. I assume the 1975 design was IOR driven.

More sail area overall. Chuck S
