Let's Compare!!!
Seems like the passagemaking winner would be the C&C
(except that I'd get rid of the bs sitting in high spots). The most open airy space would be the jboat. The best compromise would be the express. The C&C 32 has a bigger better interior than either, more space overall and still good performance. The C&C has a nicer helm station and cockpit, more storage. For cruising it beats both the J and the Express hands down. It's also a better looking boat compared to either. Airy space. The C&C wins that one too. Unless you count the airy space between Loco's ears! RB |

A large interior is not a good idea for passagemaking
or long distance cruising, just for day sailing or charter. You didn't compare helm station or cockpit in the photos so no judgement can be rendered. "Bobsprit" wrote in message ...

so no judgement can be rendered. The C&C 32 has a contoured helm seat, engine controls on the pedestal, 3 cockpit lockers, oversized self tailing winches all around...and so on. On either side of the raised helm seat is perfect secure seating. The pedestal is set behind the endboom which is also nice for taller folk. The cockpit is perfect for 5 people, seven starts to get crowded, but that's so on most any boat. http://members.aol.com/bobsprit/images/alienrain.jpg On this express 30 cockpit, there is a flat and uncomfortable hardky raised helm seat. There is no aft lazerette as on the 32-Mine holds all canvas, dock lines and so on. Are there engine controls on the pedestal? In some respects it looks like a older version of my cockpit with sharp edges. The 32 also has larger cleats and redundant massive horns aft. Here's the rather mundane Express 30 cockpit..note the placement of the traveler--good for racing. http://www.express30.com/photos/images/DSCN1390.jpg RB |

You didn't have a link for the J30. Seems to me that
comparing winches is probably not a valid comparison since these are changeable. "Bobsprit" wrote in message ...
