I’m looking for a fast 29ft cruiser for mainly day sailing, some racing, some cruising. I’m looking at a 1983 C&C 29 MKII and 1978 S2 9.2a that are both available. Winds are typically on the lighter side near me. The C&C is so light with a keel stepped mast which I like. The S2 has an encapsulated keel and overall build looks better, but it’s much heavier. Any thoughts on how I can make a decision between the two based on sail-ability?
