Comments: Charter our C&C 30 Gone and experience one of the iconic Caribbean regattas on a true weapon. A product of the drawing board of veteran naval architect Mark Mills, the C&C 30 is billed as a mini TP52, and it feels like just that—from the wide open, crew-friendly cockpit to the offset companionway to port and the single offset battery of clutches to starboard for controlling halyards and other sail controls.
Constructed in cored, infused vinylester and E-glass, with carbon in frames and other structural members, the boat is tremendously stiff and light. The bowsprit is fixed with a bobstay—a necessity for Code 0s and BROs with their substantial luff loads. She is sailed with a crew of 7 to 8 and is carries asymmetrical spinnakers which are gybed from the cockpit. The spinnaker is doused by a string retrieval system, down the foredeck hatch, which runs the length of the yacht below deck.
Ultimately, modern sailboats are the stuff of dreams, waterborne works of art that serve to transport (figuratively as well as literally) and delight—and it would be hard to find a better or more exciting dream than the C&C 30
