All About Your C&C Mega 30

Rig Specifications

These are the specifications provided by the designers, but even from the factory, these boats may not be identical. The reason for this is that the sail industry often contracts manufacturing to different sources in order to achieve economies of scale. What this means is – your C&C Mega 30 may be more unique than you initially thought.

It’s important to note that boats are also frequently customized, so if you suspect that work has been done on yours, it’s best to take your own measurements. When ordering a sail, we will advise you if using the manufacturer’s specifications is appropriate, or if we require you to complete our own measurement forms.

Sail Plan

The rigging of the C&C Mega 30 plays a crucial role in its overall performance. This sailboat offers a fractional rig, where the forestay does not extend to the top of the mast, allowing for a more versatile sail plan. This rig type provides a balance between upwind performance and downwind control, enabling the boat to efficiently handle a variety of wind angles and strengths. The mast and boom are made of a lightweight carbon fibre, which is a notable feature of this boat. Lastly, the C&C Mega 30 also offers a dual helm setup positioned at the aft end of the cockpit, which enhances visibility, control and responsiveness.

Design

The C&C Mega 30 was a mass-marketed and trailerable one-design racer. It was first built in Canada, then later made it’s way into the United States and Germany. It featured a lifting keel with a bulb, but was later changed to a fixed keel. These fixed keel models were no longer one-design. The C&C Mega 30 offers sleek lines, efficient water flow and reduced drag. The placement of winches, cleats and control lines are designed to allow for single-handed sailing or efficient crew coordination.

It was a one-design trailerable racer. Originally, it was only made in Canada and for Canada, but later expanded to the United States, Germany, and a few other countries. In Sweden, it is known as the Runn Racer 912.
