The C&C 45, also known as the IMS 45, is an American sailboat, that was designed by William Tripp III and first built in 2000.[1][2][3]

Production

The design was built by C&C Yachts in the United States, but it is now out of production.[1][3][4]

Design

The C&C 45 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig, a nearly plumb stem, a reverse transom, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 19,100 lb (8,664 kg) and carries 9,800 lb (4,445 kg) of ballast.[1][3]

The boat has a draft of 8.75 ft (2.67 m) with the standard keel fitted.[1][3]

The boat is fitted with a Japanese Yanmar 4JHE diesel engine of 44 hp (33 kW). The fuel tank holds 20 U.S. gallons (76 L; 17 imp gal) and the fresh water tank has a capacity of 60 U.S. gallons (230 L; 50 imp gal).[1][3]

The design has a hull speed of 8.38 kn (15.52 km/h).[3][5]
