C&C 27 MK V, 1989 MK V “Trillium” Asking $9,999 – Make an Offer! Located at Marina in Kemah, Texas (Brackish Water -NOT Saltwater)
This is a hard-to-beat starter boat and should be highly considered for those wanting to get into sailing or maybe someone just wanting to step down!
First built in 1970, the C&C 27 is an outstanding sailboat, roomy and comfortable cruiser and a competitive racer. From the original design by George Cuther, this model has undergone several alterations. The all new design of the “Mark V” was first produced in 1984. The hull is solid fiberglass and the deck is balsa cored. Compared to older models, this latest design is lighter, shorter and more oriented toward performance.
Trillium is a beautiful example of the 27’ C&C MK V. Clean, dry, sturdy in a gale and she loves a breeze! Easily single-handed, she is a perfect sailboat for anyone. Whether it’s your first boat, or you’re looking for a boat that is easily handled, you’ll find what you’re looking for in Trillium.

Accommodations
The forward cabin on the boat is a generous 6’ 4” V-berth with ample storage underneath. Immediately aft, the portable head is located to port, with a hanging locker behind it. Opposite the head, on the starboard side, is located a storage area and cabinets. Moving into the main salon, the wide beam, 5’ 10” headroom and two windows on either side of the boat give a spacious and airy feel to the salon. The teak and holly sole add warmth to the interior. On the starboard side, there is a short and comfortable settee. Moving further aft along the starboard side, there is the galley with its ample storage and deep sink with a hand pump. The generously sized icebox can fit plenty of food and drinks and is fully insulated. The galley is mostly molded in one piece and the edges and corners are rounded, making it very easy to clean. Across the boat on the port side, is a full-length settee that is able to be folded out and widened into a double berth. Moving further aft on the port side, there is a spacious quarterberth with two dry stowage bins underneath.

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
The C&C 27 MK V is a new design replacing C&C’s earlier 27 footers.
It was built in Canada as well as the US.
The Yanmar diesel was an option.
Shoal draft: 3.5’/1.067m
Disp. 4080 lbs./1852 kgs.
Ballast: 2075 lbs./941 kgs.
