[C38] Listserve Digest, Vol 4, Issue 332

Wed Dec 17 12:08:04 EST 2008

There is always the possibility of rounding up and a knock down when running
downwind with a spinnaker.  Keen helmsman will prevent this though.  We
have, fingers crossed, never rounded up to that point nor been knocked down,
close a couple of times though.

I've got a question. We bought our C-38 about four years ago and was told by
the previous owner that we should never sail her with a spinnaker. He said
that running down wind with a spinnaker she would roundup very easy and that
was a good way to loose her. Is this true?

Hello Mike and Buck,

Our C38 is our first big boat. My family and I put 1000 miles under the
keel last Winter. Then I put another 1000 miles under the keel bringing
the boat up the East Coast last April. Then we spend another five weeks
aboard as a family this Summer past.

Love love love our boat. Great sailer and a great value. Good looking too!

Russ, Thank you very much for your input. I have considered the  tankage 
issue. Water maker would be one of the first additions. My C-27 has a 20
gallon 
waste tank, so I'm already dialed into that situation. BTW I have  averaged 
over 250 days a year under sail since I've owned my boat. I  need an
"excuse" to 
stay tied to the dock. ;-)  Definitely not a  dockside condo. Thanks again.

We lived aboard our  C-38 for almost a year and a half up on Lake Erie in

and myself. Oh  yeah, and our two cats. It actually wasn?t too bad. I think 
doing it yourself  would be a piece of cake. The only real PIA?s were the
water 
and waste tank  sizes.  Once I added a city water hook up, the fresh water 
was taken care  of, now the only hassle to deal with was the holding tank. 
Though this gives  you a good excuse to take the boat out: ?Gotta? go pump
out so 
I might as well  take her for a sail.?

Howdy  All

I've  been reading your post with great interest. I'm the proud owner of a  
C-27 #5966 and am looking to move up and out in my sailing adventures.  The 
C-38 has caught my eye. I'm a relatively new sailor, four years now. I've
raced 
(beer can) on my C-27(solo) as well as crewed on a J-22 ("we" have  the
local 
cup for two years running) I've also crewed on an IP370 across the  Gulf of 
Mexico as well as trailered my C-27 to BC (Solo-Gulf Islands to  Desolation)
for 
a couple of months this past summer. Now back in  Colorado  freezing my buns

off. Anyway limited experience. I was wondering what  "owners" of C-38's
would 
think of having a C-38 for a live aboard  / cruising boat for a solo sailor.

I'm ready to get off the grid and have  been looking for boats to accomplish

this goal. BC was great but a little more  waterline would be nice. With my 
limited experience, I still tend towards  faster vs heavier displacement,
with a  
heavy dose of conservatism. Any  thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
