The C&C 352, often referred to as the Mark II, remains one of the most significant benchmarks in the evolution of the performancecruiser category. Launched in 1971 as a refinement of the original C&C 35 (Mark I), this model represented the pinnacle of the "Cuthbertson & Cassian era" before the design office transitioned fully into the hands of Robert Ball. While the Mark I had already established itself as a formidable racing platform, the 352 was engineered to provide a more sophisticated balance between competitive speed and offshore liveability. Built at the NiagaraontheLake facility, the vessel utilized the company's signature balsacore construction, a technique that provided a high strengthtoweight ratio that few contemporary builders could match. According to the historical archives at the C&C Photo Album & Resource Center, the Mark II enjoyed a prolific production run until approximately 1975, with over 200 hulls produced, making it a staple of North American yacht clubs and coastal cruising grounds.
