The C&C 32 is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by C&C Design and first built in 1981.[1][2][3]

The boat was built by C&C Yachts in Canada, but it is now out of production.[1][3][4]

Design

The C&C 32 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with wood trim. It has a masthead sloop rig, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed fin keel or, optionally, a fixed stub keel and centreboard.[1][3]

The fixed keel version displaces 9,680 lb (4,391 kg) and carries 3,900 lb (1,769 kg) of lead ballast, while the centreboard version displaces 10,485 lb (4,756 kg) and carries 4,705 lb (2,134 kg) of lead ballast.[1][3]

The boat has a draft of 5.67 ft (1.73 m) with the standard keel and 6.90 ft (2.10 m) with the optional stub keel with the centreboard extended and 4.00 ft (1.22 m) with it retracted.[1][3]

The boat is fitted with a Universal Atomic 4 30 hp (22 kW) gasoline engine. A Yanmar 2GM diesel engine was available optionally. The fuel tank holds 20 U.S. gallons (76 L; 17 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 30 U.S. gallons (110 L; 25 imp gal).[1][3]

The fin keel version has a PHRF racing average handicap of 162 with a high of 172 and low of 156. The stub keel and centreboard version has a PHRF racing average handicap of 171 with a high of 171 and low of 171. It has a hull speed of 6.66 kn (12.33 km/h).[3][5][6]
