Mike:

The 36 of that vintage is very similar to the 34 of the same vintage.  My 
34 (previous boat) was also built in 1978.  If you look at the two boats side 
by side, the 36 looks like a slightly larger version of the 34.  I did not do a 
lot of single-handed sailing on my 34, but I believe it would have been easy 
enough to do.  The comments you received from other listers are spot on: Tides 
mainsail track; main halyard led aft; less than a 150 genoa; roller furling 
(which means the genoa halyard does not need to be led aft); and having an 
autopilot (which I did not have).  As one of the listers commented, docking the 
boat may be the biggest challenge, especially in sideways breeze.

I grew up on a Cal 33, and the relatively flat bottom of that boat tends to 
pound in waves.  I immediately noticed that my 34 sliced through the water much 
better, making for a more pleasant ride.  My current boat (1977 Custom 42) – 
same vintage – looks a lot like the 34 and the 36 underneath and handles the 
same way.  I’m sure the 36 is a comfortable offshore boat.

I have a friend who owns a 36 and can provide contact information if you 
get serious and want more specific info.  If so, contact me off-list at

I am thinking of a 1978 C 36. Can anyone give me any intelligence on these

I currently have a C 30. I like how stiff it is. Would anyone know how the 
C 36 would compare?

I'll be using it for coastal cruising in Nova Scotia.

Would it be too much to handle for an old guy (65 years of age).

Any comments would be appreciated.

2017-12-12 Thread Glenn Gambel via CnC-List 

Mike,

I have a 1981 C 36 with Rod rigging.  It has winches, etc. for racing. 
 I am 70, and would have very little problem sailing her by myself, 
provided I rigged her up for that purpose.   You must have roller 
furling.  You should have the jib halyard and main halyard lead aft so 
that if necessary you could drop one or the other with out having to go 
forward.  I have never had to do that.   That means I would likely hoist 
all of my sail area, but then again on a beautiful day with little 
chance of stuff happening, I would.  I have never put up a chute by 
myself.  Just not smart or in the cards at this age.  Finally, having a 
working auto pilot helps a great deal when single handing.  Don't forget 
to provide your self with jack lines and a harness as well as a life 
jacket.


The most difficult part for me is getting in and out of the the slip.  I 
have a rather large racing wheel at the helm which serves as a trap.  In 
addition, I am probably not as quick as I use to be.  Finally, C 
designed the stanchions on my boat in such a manner that they stick out 
slightly, just enough to allow me to catch a piling coming into of 
leaving a slip.  Having removed one in that manner, I don't want it to 
happen again.  My previous boat from many years ago, did not have that 
issue.  Just had a line on a piling and as I coasted into the slip, 
grabbed it and put it on my back winch.  Boat settle in to the slip 
without an issue.


It is a lot of boat to single hand, but it is a great sailing boat.  
When I race it I usually have five crew members plus myself.  Have done 
it with less, but that is not optimal.  Five plus me, and we feel safer 
about changing sails etc.  And since it is a mast head rig, the head 
sails are larger than if it were a fractional rig.


All of this said, you can probably do single handing with the boat, but 
I would suggest a smaller vessel would likely be easier.

The C 30 is famously the stiffest boat C ever made, so you might find a 36

Excepting entering or leaving a slip, the ease of singlehanding is more 
dependent on how the boat is rigged rather than its size.  I routinely 
singlehand my 35-1 for both day sails and transits.  All halyards are run aft 
to the cockpit and I have a wheel pilot.

Now, for the docking part.  Touche's home is a nice, protected slip with 4 
point mooring and midships pilings.  Wind and current play little part in 
docking. It's fairly easy to dock by myself.  I dock stern in and use propwalk 
to pull the stern into the slip.

Touche's current transient slip is a different story.  It's a floating pier 
with double slips which have no midships piling.  If the wind is blowing the 
boat away from the finger pier, there is nothing to prevent it from getting 
blown into the boat in the neighboring slip.  To complicate matters, the finger 
pier is on the starboard side.  When docking bow in, putting the engine in 
reverse pulls the stern to port, away for the finger pier.  It can be a 
challenge at times to get the boat in the slip, scramble from the steering 
station, leap unto the dock and tie it up with both the wind and the propwalk 
working to pull the boat away from the finger pier.

Just something to think about.

On the 30-1 stiffness point, I finally rounded up hard in a race October 22nd 
under full main and 150.  Close-hauled on first upwind leg, port tack.  It took 
a 28mph gust to do it, buried the side deck up to the genoa car, even though I 
had several bodies on the windward rail.  Grenadine is happy carrying full sail 
in 20kts.

Agreed on the single-handing; I do it all the time on my Landfall 38.  The 
wheel pilot helps.

As far as stiffness goes, the stability table on the C website shows both the 
30mkI and the LF38 (along with all of the other larger Landfalls) together on 
the “Stiff” side of the chart.  I’ve been lucky to have had both the 30 and the 
LF38.  The 36 looks to be a fair amount more tender than either, so shorten 
sail early.

I am thinking of a 1978 C 36. Can anyone give me any intelligence on these 
boats?

I currently have a C 30. I like how stiff it is. Would anyone know how the 
C 36 would compare?

I'll be using it for coastal cruising in Nova Scotia.

Would it be too much to handle for an old guy (65 years of age).

Any comments would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Re: Stus-List C Photo Album owners database - now advice on C 36

2017-12-12 Thread Dennis C. via CnC-List 
Excepting entering or leaving a slip, the ease of singlehanding is more
dependent on how the boat is rigged rather than its size.  I routinely
singlehand my 35-1 for both day sails and transits.  All halyards are run
aft to the cockpit and I have a wheel pilot.

Now, for the docking part.  Touche's home is a nice, protected slip with 4
point mooring and midships pilings.  Wind and current play little part in
docking. It's fairly easy to dock by myself.  I dock stern in and use
propwalk to pull the stern into the slip.

Touche's current transient slip is a different story.  It's a floating pier
with double slips which have no midships piling.  If the wind is blowing
the boat away from the finger pier, there is nothing to prevent it from
getting blown into the boat in the neighboring slip.  To complicate
matters, the finger pier is on the starboard side.  When docking bow in,
putting the engine in reverse pulls the stern to port, away for the finger
pier.  It can be a challenge at times to get the boat in the slip, scramble
from the steering station, leap unto the dock and tie it up with both the
wind and the propwalk working to pull the boat away from the finger pier.

Just something to think about.

As Andy said.   Put a 3 on the furler and with a good auto-pilot good to go.  
We short/single hand everywhere.   Even get the chute up on occasion (down 
helps too).


Just a matter of timing and thinking things through.

Nothing better than when the better half agrees to what you wish you were 
wishing you could have, and willingly agree it is “their” idea. It makes the 
sailing all that more pleasurable.

I think the 36 will be fine if you set it up right. On my 40 I have a Tides
Strongtrack, which allows me to haul the main up almost all the way before
I have to resort to a winch. I sail with a number three on the furler,
which is easy to roll up without having to use a winch and easy to tack
without disturbing she-who-must-not-be-disturbed. A good autopilot makes
