The C&C 382, often referred to as the C&C 38 Mark II, represents a definitive era in North American yacht design where the lines between a dedicated IOR (International Offshore Rule) racer and a comfortable family cruiser began to blur. Launched in 1975 and produced until roughly 1981, the 382 was a departure from the original C&C 38 designed by Cuthbertson & Cassian. This second iteration, penned by Robert Ball, was tasked with maintaining the brand’s "performance cruiser" identity while providing more interior volume and more predictable handling than its predecessor. It remains one of the most successful models in the company’s history, with nearly 100 units built in the first year of production alone. While the hull was optimized for the racing rules of the mid70s, its robust construction and enduring aesthetics have transitioned it into a favored choice for coastal cruisers and club racers today.
