S/V Sea Mist is a 1979 36′ C&C, designed by C&C Design and built by C&C Yachts starting in 1977. Known for their exceptional design and performance, the C&C 36 is a well-balanced vessel that excels in light to moderate winds. These vessels had two different keel alternatives, and S/V Sea Mist features a versatile centerboard design that offers a unique advantage: with a draft of just 4 feet 3 inches when the drop keel is pulled up, this boat is perfectly suited for exploring shallow waters. Conversely, when the keel is deployed, the draft increases to 7 feet, enabling the boat to point efficiently into the wind.

Having been lovingly cared for by its current owners, who have spent nearly a decade cruising the Caribbean and navigating the Mississippi River system from Canada, S/V Sea Mist has undergone numerous upgrades and regular maintenance to ensure its readiness for adventure. This sailboat has provided its owners with a comfortable, self-sufficient living space on the water, making it an excellent choice for anyone looking to embrace the cruising lifestyle.

The C&C 36 has a spacious and comfortable interior, with plenty of natural light and ventilation. The boat has a traditional layout and can accommodate up to six people in two cabins. The forward cabin has a cozy double V-berth, followed by a head compartment with a marine toilet and a shower. The main salon has two settees that convert into berths, a folding dining table, and ample storage space. The galley on the port side is well-appointed with a stove, sink, and icebox. Opposite the galley, the navigation station is fitted with a chart table and an updated electrical panel. An aft double berth to starboard adds to the vessel’s versatility and comfort.

S/V Sea Mist was repowered with a well-maintained diesel engine in 2010 and has received mechanical and rigging upgrades. The sails are in good condition and the rod rigging was inspected by a rigger in 2020.

This vessel is outfitted to go cruising with renewable power options, ample electrical capacity, and a water maker. A robust stainless-steel arch with dinghy davits supports dinghy handling, and the boat carries comprehensive ground tackle. The cockpit is spacious and comfortable, with a full enclosure added in 2018, providing protection from the elements.

Notable upgrades include a new rudder and rudder post with three bearings completed in 2021, along with hull and deck repainting and a recently purchased tarp covering the entire boat for protection.

S/V Sea Mist is a proven cruising vessel, meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, ready to embark on your next adventure. Whether you are seeking a weekend getaway or planning an extended journey, this sailboat offers the features, comfort, and reliability you need to go cruising.
