The C&C 30 OD is a modern fractional sloop designed by Mark Mills and built by C&C Yachts, with production records indicating a build year of 2014. This lightweight performance cruiser features a displacement of 3995.0 lb and a beam of 9.84 ft, reflecting a design philosophy focused on speed and agility rather than heavy offshore comfort.
- Best for:
- This boat is best suited for coastal cruisers and weekend racers who prioritize performance and ease of handling over heavy bluewater provisioning. Its light displacement and fractional rig make it an excellent candidate for single-handers or couples seeking a responsive, trailerable package.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low displacement-to-length ratio of 75.44 and a comfort ratio of 10.09, the C&C 30 OD is primarily a coastal cruiser with limited bluewater capability due to its light displacement and fin keel design.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Beneteau First 30 and the J/30, as they share similar fractional sloop rigs and performance-oriented hull forms from the same era. These vessels offer similar sailing characteristics for owners seeking a balance between racing potential and coastal cruising comfort.
