Unlike the Coronado which gets the "cheapest construction" nod from Don Casey:

it's slower than a well-sailed Coronado 27, it isn't

But the Coronado PHRH is 230, while the C&C is 180 for the Mark 3.

even half as seaworthy as a Coronado 27 and I
could go on and on. The poor little C&C 27 was
knocked out of a mold on the cheap as a day
sailer and entry level round the buoys pretend
racer. It has no heritage, it has no class, it has
no real value.

Almost 1000 C&C 27s were made in a 12 year run. The Coronado 27 only had a 4 year run
before the company went belly up.

The Coronado 27 was horribly dated before her first mold cracked. It was part
of the company's folly that made a joke of both the Coronado name and the 27
herself.
Only the Mac26X gets more laughs, but at least their booms don't flex like
cooked pasta!

Prove my point. C&C 27's are light and cheap boats built for
club racing and little else. They sold well for that very reason.

Now, the Coronado 27 on the other hand was built to cruise and
to cruise in comfort. The company went belly up because they
were selling the Coronado line way too cheap. You can't sell
a mid-weight cruising boat with proper fittings for nothing and
expect to stay in business. They just had a bad business plan -
not a bad line of boats.

Look at the interior plans and you will see it is
copied directly from a Coronado 27, Too bad
the didn't copy the house too because that of
the C&C 27 is plain and ugly.

My Coronado was made in 1971 and is hull number 91

That works out to over 400 boats in four years. JUST
the same pace as the C&C 27.

So your POS is thirty years old?

My sails are worth more than your boat. My comic book collection is
worth ten times what your boat is worth.

Even if he sailed a bathtub, he would out sail your hunter

Don Casey is a magazine editor HACK who doesn't
know what he's talking about. He's a has-been,
never was, wannabe who wrote because he was
too chicken to live the life of a sailor.
He's NOBODY! If the Coronado 27 is so cheaply
and lightly built tell me why at 26'8" and ten inches
less beam she weighs more than the C&C 27 at 27' 4".
