C&C 99 Sailplan


Race-winning performance with family-friendly accommodations
If fast is fun, then sailing a C&C 99 will be more fun than you’ve had in a long time. She’s a 32-footer that is race-ready with family and friends and cruiseworthy in civilized fashion, with undeniably rakish styling and a daring cockpit and deck layout. This is one sporty speedster…we’ll understand completely when you order your hull in fire-engine-red.
The sail area-to-displacement ratio is 21.5, the righting moment is 883 foot pounds per degree, the “J” (foretriangle) dimension is 13 feet, and the area of the spinnaker, courtesy of an oversize 14-foot, 6-inch pole, is 1,026 square feet. Other vital ingredients of the speed recipe include an easily-driven canoe body with minimum wetted surface; a near-plumb bow to maximize waterline; a deep, balanced spade rudder; a high-lift-foil keel for windward efficiency. Sailors all over the country have noticed how quick the C&C 99 is—she won her class at Key West Race Week, and both Cruising World and SAIL magazine selected the C&C 99 as one of the best boats of the year.
REVIEWS

 SPECIFICATIONSHull
• Hull construction is a vacuum infused BPA epoxy, unidirectional “E” glass, and synthetic cored laminate locally reinforced with carbon fiber.• The incredible adhesion properties of BPA epoxy allows the structural laminate to be comprised primarily of uni-directional fibers instead of chopped strand mat. Chopped strand mat is the cheapest, heaviest, and weakest component and dominates conventional polyester hull construction• Pound-for-pound an infused epoxy resin laminate is far stronger than any polyester resin laminate
• Hull cosmetics are also enhanced by the extremely low shrinkage of epoxy resin vs. polyester resin and the reduction in overall resin content thus eliminating or reducing post-cure hull distortions found in conventional polyester laminates
• The vacuum infusion process and strict resin control produces a hull laminate with 65% glass reinforcement content. The industry norm for polyester resin hull laminates is 25% glass content. Our laminating process produces a stronger yet lighter hull
• Synthetic foam coring is used for maximum impact resistance, stiffness, strength, and light weight. The cored hull also offers superior hull insulating properties, both thermal and acoustical
• The laminate in the keel area is reinforced with multiple plies of high-tensile carbon-fiber unidirectional reinforcements
• Premium grade gelcoat provides superior gloss, fade resistance, and resistance to surface crazing
• Interior is completely painted out for enhanced cosmetics and to seal interior laminate surfaces
• Hull is backed by industry-leading, non-prorated, transferable 15-year no blister, hull structure warranty
Deck
• Deck is a balanced composite laminate utilizing BPA epoxy resin, uni-directional “E”-glass reinforcement, and high strength/stiffness premium sealed balsa coring• Our custom resin infusion process creates the best resin to glass reinforcement ratio possible resulting in the stiffest, lightest, strongest deck in production boatbuilding• The deck is locally reinforced at high load areas with additional plies of bidirectional “E”-glass reinforcement
• White, light gray, or optional white/sandstone and white/gray two-tone decks with patterned non-skid are available
• Premium grade gelcoat provides superior gloss, resistance to fading, and resistance to crazing
• Deck coring windows are located at all hardware installations to maintain the watertight integrity of the deck coring
• Molded in aluminum backing plates on highly loaded deck hardware
• Hull to deck joint is secured with 1/4-20 stainless machine screws installed on 4” centers through the full-length 6061 T6 aluminum backing plate imbedded in the hull flange. This method exceeds the recommended installation requirements of the ABS scantling for offshore sailing yachts.
• Hull to deck joint is sealed with 3M 5200 adhesive sealant
• Hinge-up carbon-fiber reinforced helm seat with gas shock support
• Composite light RTM match-molded deck locker hatches assure strict thickness controls allowing accurate gasket seal of cockpit openings. Conventional construction uses single-sided moldings with painted raw fiberglass underside.

Keel/Ballast
