Ballast 9775lbs lead (@$.90 /lb on July 15 2025, $8.7k)
Draft 7.5’ (maybe 8)
This is a 1984 C&C Northeast 39, not a C&C 39 (which is older and not an offshore racer). It was built in C&C’s Custom Yard (Buckman). The designer is Bob Ball. This boat was set up as a serious racing yacht with s fairly comfortable cabin.
This boat needs someone to love it. It would make a great Harvest Moon competitor.
Its sister ships sell for $50k plus and the reason this boat is inexpensive is two fold.
1. First and foremost she needs lots of work (the interior pictures look a little better than actually condition) call and I will explain all. Bottom, electrical, and interior, but the bones of a pure race machine are there. The deck has an outstanding set up. Hydronic: backstay, vang/kicker and baby stay. Sails have been removed from boom and furler. I have found my boat size is 26-35 for my local lake and an ocean going race machine is out of my current desires.
2. I live 4+ hours away and just cannot get there to use, work on or enjoy it.
Now for the stuff:
2 Spinnakers excellent (worth $2k+ each)
1 Fast 40 carbon race sail very good (original cost $6k+)
4, three speed race winches in the cockpit and 5, 2 speed on the cabin top (over $4k used)
Main and another jib ok not the best
Keel stepped mast with triple redundant bilge pumps currently set for storage (windows sealed, cushions up, cabinets open and floor boards up. Just pressure washed top side. I don’t want it to be scrapped, but its components are worth more than 2x asking price.
Looking for a quick sell.
