The C&C 27 is one of the Club’s largest one-design and PHRF keelboat racing fleets. There are 30+ C&C 27s at NSC with 10-12 boats out regularly racing in one-design; many also race on Tuesday night in PHRF, and a few race Thursday night in JAM.
An ideal racer and cruiser for the Ottawa river, the C&C 27 remains a classic Canadian sailboat and was one of the best production boats ever built by C&C Yachts. The C&C 27 is a masthead rig with a large overlapping Genoa and a high-aspect ratio mainsail. Downwind the large spinnaker is gybed end to end and can be launched from the fore hatch. The crew is typically comprised of 5-6 people; a helm, two middle and two foredeck hands.
