C&C 34+/R
Description
The C&C 34+/R (commonly called the 34+R or 34 Plus R) is the ultimate racing evolution of the C&C 34 line, introduced in 1981 and built in very limited numbers (~20–25 hulls) by C&C Yachts (Niagara-on-the-Lake, Canada). Designed by Robert Ball with input from C&C’s in-house race team, it was optimized for IOR Rule competition and one-design racing under the C&C 34+ Class. It features a taller triple-spreader rig, deeper lead fin keel, lighter displacement, rod rigging, and stripped interior—transforming the cruiser-racer into a pure grand-prix machine.
