Not that slick. These boats look like they tend to be rode hard and
put away wet. Found severe cracking around the aft chain plates from over enthusiastic use of the hydraulics. Structural cracking at the forward bulkhead from ? High bridge deck gives you seven steps up and down the ladder and no room under a dodger. You are going to need new knees.

High bridge deck gives you seven steps up and down the ladder and no
room under a dodger. I'll take a bridge deck anyday. Easier to get from one side of the cockpit to the other and they make the boat stronger. S/V Express 30 "Ringmaster" Trains are a winter sport |

Check out some of the mid-1980s One Tonners and Admirals Cuppers....
definitely designed to the IOR rule. Definitely a resemblance to the C&C "R" and "+" series, at least to my eye. SAIL LOCO wrote: Doug, To me "squared" off areas and sharp bends in the hull indicate IOR influence. Earlier IOR boats, yes. Then, after a long time, designers figured out that a fast boat with a fair hull would beat a weird hull with a couple inches longer unrated LWL. The C&C 34R and 37Rs don't seem to have these influences. I just see a regular canoe underbody with relativly flat areas aft. If it were more like the "big dinghy" style boats, I'd agree. But it is an evolution of hull shape from racers of that era, IMHO looking a bit like the IOR boats (of that era, not the earlier broach coaches).

Easier to get from one side of the cockpit to the other and they make the boat stronger. All that. Also, a bridge deck is good to keep the water from gushing down into the cabin. Frankly, boats without bridge decks strike me as poor risks for hard sailing. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |
