The C&C 1/2 Ton is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by C&C Design as an International Offshore Rule Half Ton class racer.[1][2][3][4]
The C&C 1/2 Ton design was the basis for the C&C 29 of 1977.[1][4][5]
The boat was built by C&C Yachts in Canada as a made-to-order, semi-custom built limited edition boat between 1975 and 1980, with only 12 examples completed, but it is now out of production.[1][4][6]
