About
We are honoured to introduce you to KAVU...Klear Above Visibility Unlimited!!! Just as sailingshould be!!
Throughout its 45 year history, C&C Yachts have been known for their build quality, sailing performance and handsome styling. The C&C 121 is no exception with its graceful sheer, low freeboard, and carefully sculpted, ergonomic deck. Designed by Tim Jackett and built by Tartan Yachts at their Fairport, Ohio factory, the 121 was the largest C&C design built by Tartan.
KAVU is somewhat unusual in that she has a 5 foot shoal draft keel so she can be sailed and docked in just about any inland waters. She is owned by a very knowledgeable yachtsman who had a major refit performed on her in 2023. Upgrades include:
- New custom paint on her topsides
- Side windows all replaced
- New Volvo saildrive unit
- All new Raymarine electronics
- Her spars are currently being repainted at Klacko Spars
- New teak and holly cabin sole
- Electric motor controls added to her folding swim platform
- All new Oyster Sunbrella canvas (mainsail cover and jib sleeve to be delivered in Spring 2024)
- And more
All these and more make this yacht a real joy to sail whether racing with friends or cruising with friends and family. KAVU is, without doubt, the finest example of a C&C 121 on the market; schedule an inspection now - this one won't last long.
