Hi Chris I've got an '83 35-3, and love it. The hull is cored, but is solid where C installed any thru-hulls, and the moisture meter found no issues at purchase (6 years ago) and since. My deck has a damp spot, which is par for the course for boats of this age. As has been said, a good

You’re right, that was me (offshore74) asking a million questions over on Sailnet :) I really like being as informed as I can be from all angles, hence the reason I came over here where C owners reside as one of you here suggested. I’m not as overwhelmed by the idea of cored hulls after hearing

Hi Chris, C pretty much invented using cored hulls on production sailboats, that was previously reserved for high end offshore racing powerboats.. Their fiberglass layups were also 2nd to none.. They really did put in the extra effort and you can see that when you start looking at the

My 45 year old C 35 doesn't have a cored hull but I'd sail it anywhere anytime. Raced it upwind in 20+ knot breeze and 4-6 foot seas. Boat basically said "Is that all you got?" Spent 2+ weeks cruising it leisurely on the Gulf Coast. Enjoyed every minute. C designed and constructed their cored

I’m new to C world, recently narrowed down my boat search to a C and currently have my eye on two that are on the market: a 1986 C 35 MKIII and a 1979 C 36. Have heard the good/bad and I’m told it all comes down to a good surveyor (if anyone knows a good surveyor with C knowledge please send
