Located in Rogers City, Michigan, this 39-foot 1978 C&C 40-2 cruiser is a great sloop sailboat ready for immediate sale.
A dual-purpose sailboat, this 1978 C&C 40-2 is designed to function as a racer or cruising sailboat. The C&C 40-2 has a race feel and setup but also has enough room to be accommodating when you are simply cruising. Standard keel with 7’ draft.
The interior of the C&C is efficiently outfitted with plenty of room. Teak-faced ply with solid teak edging throughout the interior defines the spaces and furniture vs. a molded fiberglass liner.
The U-shaped galley configuration is located starboard of the entryway. The galley features double sinks, a large icebox under the counter, a gimble-mounted 3-burner stove and oven, and a large bin under the front countertop. There are also storage cabinets to stow supplies.
A Nav station opposite the galley has a large chart table with an opening top and storage drawers to the side. There is also a dedicated bench seat.
Behind the Nav station is a quarter berth. The quarter berth could be used as a double berth in a pinch.
There are storage compartments beneath the base and an access panel to the port side of the engine.
The salon features settees and pilot berths on the starboard and port sides. There is a hatch over the main cabin that can be opened for ventilation.
There is a table that bolts to the floor with leaf extensions to enhance the accommodations below when not racing.
To port is the enclosed head. The head features a composting toilet, sink, and storage cabinets. There are two entry doors. One from the main cabin and one from the V-berth.
The front stateroom features a V-berth with storage access below. A deck hatch above provides natural light and airflow. A hanging closet and storage cabinets are also provided. A solid door to the stateroom provides privacy.
Don’t miss out on your opportunity to own this good condition C&C sloop sailboat!
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)
There were many versions of the C&C 40. This earlier version is simlar to the CRUSADER 40 but with the rudder attached to the keel, and a small bowsprit. Not built in great numbers and a completely different design from that of the later C&C 40’s (after 1977).
