The C&C 36-1, often referred to as the C&C 36 Mark I, was introduced in 1977 as a successor to the highly successful C&C 35. Designed by Robert W. Ball during his tenure as chief designer, the 36-1 was a quintessential example of the "performance cruiser" archetype that C&C Yachts championed throughout the late 1970s. Produced until 1982, the model bridge the gap between pure International Offshore Rule (IOR) racing machines and comfortable family cruisers. Built with the brand’s signature balsa-cored fiberglass hull, the 36-1 was engineered to be stiff, light, and responsive, featuring a sleek profile and a high-aspect masthead rig that became a common sight on racecourses from the Great Lakes to the Eastern Seaboard.
