The C&C 34/36 is a Canadian sailboat series, designed by Robert W. Ball and first built in 1989. Ball was the chief designer for C&C Yachts between 1969 and 1991. [6] [7] [8]
The boat was built by C&C Yachts in Canada, but it is now out of production. When it was originally introduced it was called the C&C 34, but it replaced the 1977-vintage C&C 34 in production. [6] [9] [10]
The C&C 34/36 series are all recreational keelboats, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. They all have masthead sloop rigs, reverse transoms and internally-mounted spade-type rudders. The line was introduced in 1989. [6]
The series includes the "+" version, which is a club racer-cruiser, the "R" version, which is a deep keel racing model and a later "XL" model, which combined the performance of the "R" with a cruising interior. There was also the option of a wing keel. [6]
All models have forward and aft cabins, with additional berths in the middle of the main cabin. The head is located just aft of the bow cabin. [8]
The rigging varies from model to model. The mainsheet traveller may be located on the transom, the coach house roof or at the steering pedestal. The jib winches may be located on the cockpit coaming or on the coach house roof. Mast supports include rod-type stays and either a single backstay or running backstays. Some versions have two spreaders, while others have three. [8]
In a review of the 34+, Michael McGoldrick wrote, "The C&C 34+ has a brash look which suggests that it was meant to go very fast. For its size, it is a relatively light boat, and it's hard to miss the aggressive looking elliptical-shaped keel. In fact, C&C literature on this boat implies that it was designed as an out-and-out racer, which seems to be confirmed by the fact that it was available as a stripped-down racer (the so-called "R" version of this boat). The 34+ version is a racing/cruising model, but most people would still consider it to be heavily slanted towards racing. The interior of this version comes with athwartship aft cabin, an aft head, a contoured dinette/settee, and a navigation station. There is also a "XL" version of this boat which consists of the racing model with a few amenities thrown in below to make the interior a little more livable." [19]
