I am in the market for a new vessel and I am considering a 79 c&c with a center board. I had not considered a center board, but the vessel came on the market. It has a great ownership history with the last owners having her for over 30 years.
1. Is the center board more fuss then its worth? Will I have a lot of issues to deal with?
2. Are there issues with a shallow bilge?
3. How is the upwind sailing performance?
4. Should I be concerned if it has a cored hull?
Any opinions would be appreciated.
