Ce que couvre cette vidéo

A 1985 C&C 44 listed at $99,000 gets a full design and listing analysis from Andy Schell and August Sandberg on the Quarterdeck Sailing Podcast, submitted by a 59 North member named Brian for the show's recurring boat-shopping segment.4:20 The boat is a freshwater example with an all-red hull, mast, boom, spreaders, spinnaker pole, radar mast, and retractable bowsprit.9:05 Andy walks through the C&C 44's IOR-era origins — built in Rhode Island with balsa-cored hull and deck construction, a bolted-on lead keel into a fiberglass grid, and a 63-foot mast on a 44-foot hull drawing 8 feet 4 inches.10:50 Using sailboatdata.com, he works through the key ratios: sail-area-to-displacement of 19.5 (higher than their Swan 48 Eistbørn at 16, close to their Farr 65 Falcon at 20–21), ballast-to-displacement of 47%, displacement-to-length of 213, a Brewer comfort ratio of 27, and a capsize screening number of 2.8.19:00 The balsa core is flagged as a primary red flag on any 1985 C&C, based on Andy's direct experience with water intrusion on his Norlin 34.11:08 A "Broker BS" segment is promised later in the episode to parse the listing's marketing language.47:04
