About

The C&C Landfall 48 Pilothouse is a classic sailing yacht. 24 boats were built at C&C's custom boat yard in Middletown, Rhode Island between 1980-82. This particular vessel was commissioned in 1982 with advancements in rigging and interior layout. The Rob Ball design is recognized by Cruising Worldas one of the top 40 sailboats of all time. She is the perfect balance of blue-water ruggedness and live-aboard comfort.

The current owner aquired the boat in 2013 and retained Buzzards Bay Yacht Services in Mattapoisett, MA to restore the vessel, including engine, electrical, mechanical and fibreglass (including a new rudder and a new genset). She was sailed to her new home in Toronto, where she is currently berthed. Mara has benefited from the regular attention of a professional captain.

The boat is turnkey. All systems are operational and well maintained. In 2020 the mast was taken down, painted and the rigging checked. A new teak table was installed in the cockpit and the binnacle compass was rebuilt. The primary electric winches were checked and the starboard winch motor was rebuilt. Halyards and lines were replaced. The interior teak and holly sole and companionway were refinished.

Whether you are looking for a blue-water cruiser capable of taking you around the world (many of the 48s are found at the far reaches of the globe), a cruiser on the Great Lakes, or a comfortable cottage, Mara is ideal.

 

Testimonials

George Ayers was terrific to work with over the past few months as I evaluated, negotiated and purchased a CS 30 that Harris & Ellis Yachts had listed in Sarnia. He was patient, thorough and totally professional. I have owned nine sailboats in my 50+ years as a sailor. My experience with George and Harris & Ellis Yachts has been my best boat buying experience to date.

George did an amazing job of selling our CS 30 sailboat. A caring and compassionate person, he went above and beyond our expectations and never stopped working on our behalf to get the job done. We are forever grateful for his dedication to his work. Please let him know how much we think of him!

I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the outstanding service provided by Greg. Last October, my husband suddenly passed away due to a heart attack, leaving behind two boats. Greg was instrumental in helping me sell the first boat quickly and at a very good price. As for the second boat, due to my husband's declining health in his final year, the boat had been sitting idle at the dock near our home for over a year. Greg demonstrated the utmost professionalism in cleaning, maintaining, and preparing the boat for sale. He put in a tremendous amount of work, understanding the niche market for this boat, and always kept me informed of his progress without burdening me with the stress of the process. Last week, Greg successfully sold the second boat, and I am very satisfied with the price achieved. His professionalism and confidence in his work gave me a much-needed sense of security during such a difficult time.    

Thank you for all your work in facilitating the sale of our dad's boat. Jake and I really appreciate all the hard work you put into it with the many visits, paperwork, etc. A special mention has to go out to Grant for teaching me how to fold the sails!

As first-time boat buyers and as foreigners wanting to buy a cruising catamaran in the US, we knew we needed a reliable broker that had our best interests in mind. John Heintzman was just that, and more! He was extremely committed to understanding what we were looking for, gave great advice, and guided us through the purchase process with great patience and knowledge. All in all, we felt very well taken care of.

I feel compelled to reach out about the absolutely wonderful experience that I have had with Grant and Patricia Bowlby. I completed the purchase of a boat yesterday and I couldn’t be happier. They were so helpful, kind, and patient. This was my first experience with a broker, and I think I’ve found the best.

I can’t thank Ewan Campbell enough for the super job he did in selling G, making up for my lack of experience in this realm and patiently searching for just the right buyer and a win-win for seller and buyer alike.

It was a wonderful experience selling A with Jeff Cole’s expert assistance. Thank you for simplifying a complicated process. Your patience and kindness are especially appreciated.

I just wanted to thank Jeff Cole for all his hard work. He was very professional and effective.
