The purpose of the C&C35 Association of Detroit is to develop and promote
the C&C 35 Mark I as a racing and cruising boat, to develop and maintain
level racing standards for the class, and coordinate cruising and social
activities among the members. Our Association was founded in 1973, Political
correctness aside, we feel that the following statement taken from the
original sales brochure is as true today as it was then. "The C&C 35
designed by Cuthbertson and Cassian and built by Hinterhoeller, is a boat
for today's skipper who lives aboard his boat; sails with his family; races
with his wife. He wants it all in one craft. He wants to win races. He
wants comfort below deck and efficiency on deck. He wants a boat that will
come first at the finish line, and first with his family." Way ahead of
the racer/cruiser design curve of its time, this boat remains a strong
and comfortable boat even today. The Mark I is arguably the best performing
C&C 35 built.
