C&C Express 110
The first new C&C since the acquisition of the C&C name by Tartan, the 110 is available with a surprising number of keel and rigging choices. She’s fast and fun to sail, but as a cruiser her stowage comes up short.

This French cruiser has a nice all-wood interior, but a small sail plan for coastal US waters.

GAM SS-2 Top Short VHF Antenna
Among 8' 6db models, the Shakespeare 5225XT performed perfectly. Others that rated well include the Shakespeare 5399, Digital 528-VW and the Antenex 4-footer.
