Introduction
The C&C design team gave the 35 a hull form characterized by a long water line and good stability, which contribute to excellent steering characteristics. The 35 carries more power in the rig and maintains her speed at greater angles of heel without becoming hard to manage. High performance under sail with civilized accommodations, this is a classic C&C.
ConstructionThe C&C 35's hull form features a long, narrow entry and lightly tucked-up stern. A shallow skeg maintains directional control, making steering precise and reliable. The rudder and keel foils are deep and carefully balanced with the rig. C&C's stiff, balsa-cored laminates are strengthened by a unique box-section grid molded to the hull to accept the high rig loading associated with competition. Cast aluminum stemhead, stanchion bases, quarter castings and cleats.

Designer's CommentsC&C 35 MK III by Rob Ball.... the C&C 35 Mk III, which I consider a favorite because of this closeness.Every aspect of the boat was new, in my mind, and the hull shape now was the ââ¬Ëtruncated diamondââ¬â¢ type shape as opposed to the older ââ¬Ëwedgeââ¬â¢ type . . . This gave both long sailing length and balanced steering when heeled . . . . This was a wonderful development eliminates broaching right ? . . . . not quite . . . . what it means is that instead of broaching on a reach, at six knots . . like we were all used to . . . . now you could go seven or eight knots on a reach . . . but then you broached faster . . . . . you just canââ¬â¢t win . . . . .
Prior to the 35 we had done the 40 (the first of the ââ¬Ëtruncated diamondsââ¬â¢) which was our largest real production boats to date . . . . That boat had several stainless ââ¬ËTââ¬â¢ fittings around the deck to hold it down to the bulkheads . . . . Unfortunately this method of boat building lent itself to leaks, and we spent many customer service dollars fixing these and adding more ââ¬ËTââ¬â¢ fittings to boats in production . . . . We finally convinced the company that we had to actually connect the bulkheads to the deck (virtually all boats prior had the deck simply sitting on top of the bulkheads, not joined). This was no easy project, since it required laminating the bulkhead-to-deck joint inside after deck fitment . . . . Since we glued the deck liner to the deck before installing it, there was this nasty lamination around the bulkheads that needed to be covered as additional fitted small liner parts . . . . This process was a big cost-increaser. . . . but we felt it was needed . . . I remember Jack Synes saying that it was a lot better to spend the money to build the boats better at the get-go, rather than afterwards in warranty costs . . . .
Well . . . . . the very FIRST time we sailed with a sailmaker on board which was probably the second or third sail there was BIG reaction ! The headstay doesnââ¬â¢t sag . . . . WOW . . . . The whole process of bulkhead/deck joining had stiffened up the structure dramatically, and now the big genoa could be carried much more effectively . . . .
Unfortunately, there is a give and go in many things in life, and stiffening up the boat also makes it somewhat more brittle . . . . the 35 does itself much more damage when it hits a rock at six knots than prior boats which were far more flexible . . . . but C&Cââ¬â¢s place was higher performance than the next guy, so we continued in this vein, where possible to engineer performance into our projects . .
The interior development incorporated an inch here and an inch there to expand on the 34 living spaces, and the balance between interior volume/comfort and exterior size and aesthetics came off well, in my opinion . . .but I am a bit biased . . . .
Iââ¬â¢ve seen the 35 racing and itââ¬â¢s results seem to be spotty . . . A couple of years ago I sailed the three day Buzzards Bay Regatta on a very well prepared C&C 40 (Zoomer) and on three different days saw the 35, which started five minutes behind us, right with us at the weather mark, ahead in one case . . . . so I know there is upwind speed there . . . . but on other occasions the 35 is at the other end of the spectrum . . . . Iââ¬â¢m not absolutely sure why I suspect mostly that it is a bit tender for itsââ¬â¢ rig size, but havenââ¬â¢t been able to really test that out. . . . If you own one, I think you should try hard to keep the boat on itsââ¬â¢ feet - slightly wider sheeting angle, draft forward in genoas, flat exit on the main . . . . . obviously the boat takes a bit of familiarity to be the world-beater that it can be . . . . .
I have watched longingly when 35ââ¬â¢s have come up for sale, but havenââ¬â¢t taken the plunge . . . maybe one day . . . .
