The C&C 57 is a Canadian sailboat. The design was built by C&C Yachts in Canada, but it is now out of production.[1][2]

Design

The C&C 57 is a small recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a masthead sloop rig, a raked stem, a raised reverse transom with built-in steps and swimming platform, a centre cockpit, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 45,700 lb (20,729 kg) and carries 17,700 lb (8,029 kg) of ballast.[1][3]

The boat was described as the most luxurious yacht in the C&C line in 1989. It features four individual sleeping suites, with private heads. Optional equipment included air conditioning, an ice making machine and a bow thruster for maneuvering. The centre-cockpit companionway is centre-mounted and opens below into the main saloon. The main salon below decks can seat ten people. There are separate crew quarters off the main saloon. The galley includes a four-burner stove top, oven, microwave oven, molded one-piece sinks, teak cupboards, Avonite counters and a refrigerator. the owner's quarters are aft and fit a queen-sized bed.[3][4]

The boat has a draft of 6.17 ft (1.88 m) with the standard keel installed. Total sail area is 1,313 sq ft (122.0 m2). The boat is fitted with a British Perkins Engines diesel engine for docking and maneuvering.[1]
