Just got back from a trip to Baytown to deliver a

brand
spanking new
C&C 121 Express.

Was first to pop her cherry, even before the new

owner.

Pretty boat, the wheel is bigger than Robs boat. Has a
neat IO diesel
main engine, looks like an outboard sticking out the
bottom just aft
the wing.

Like a 'saildrive'?


Yeah thats what it was, even has a folding prop.
Nice boat but kinda expensive IMO.


Supposed to be pretty fast. I wonder how high it can point?


Don't know, all we did we unroll the jib and motor sailed, all pretty
much downwind.
I might go out this weekend with the new owner and find out. Well laid
out boat, sorta like Rob's but for regular size people, not migits.
Kinda beamy for a 40 ftr IMO..13 maybe 14 ft.
