Shawn,
I have unbolted and set aside my keel and can offer my observations. Our boat,
a 1982 C 37 came with and we sailed with, for many, many years, the infamous
"C smile.” Every year when pulling the boat out, the front part of the
keel/keel stub intersection would weep a bit of sea-water.

Sorry you had to let your 35 go, but thanks for sharing some details. When
I first started looking last May/June there were a lot more boats, so I

Hi Shawn,
Thanks for the update on Calisto. I almost went

You see, I sold my beloved 35 mk-1, Sweet, last

I’m a huge fan of the CS30 and have raced on them. I find the cockpit too

perfect for cruising. The interiors are thoughtful and well put together and

In my view, although older, the C 35 Mark 2 is a great all round boat. We
won our class in the Marblehead to Halifax Ocean race in light airs, and on the
trip down in strong headwinds and rough seas, the flare forward kept the bow
but overall they seem to have
stood up fairly well.
Good luck!!

Hello all,
Had a look at the 35 mk2 in Victoria, and while it will be a great boat for
someone, we've decided it's just not for us. There is a lot of value in
recent upgrades, but the quality of workmanship is not quite what I'd like
to see, and there is a bit too much complexity in the engine
Thanks for all the info. Going to look at the boat today, so I will
report back. I was invited on board another '74 35 mk2 yesterday, after
viewing a Catalina (am I allowed to say that here...?) 30 and a CS 27.
Needless to say, I preferred the C, and it just made me more curious
about Callisto. If
Agree on condition and will add that it’s well Worth paying a bit more for a
boat with recent upgrades, esp if they are the upgrades you’d make anyway.
(The Bimini you’d buy anyway is effectively free in a used boat).
35-2 was on my shortlist when I bought my 33-2.
Vs Toronto area Price
Condition is everything, and that is not a high price for a reasonably
well-equipped boat in good condition, especially in BC where prices are
generally higher, most likely due to the absurd cost of housing.
