The hull is the Canadian designed C&C 27. The originals had lead keels but the
Trappers have cast iron. This produces a lighter boat which needs less wind to
drive it but with a higher c of g.Originally the boats were named after North
American Indian tribes although not exclusively. The 501 was produced in 1981
on the same hull but with different roof and inner mouldings. Late 500's were
made with 501 inner mouldings.
Trapper 28
The 28 was designed by C&C and in Canada is known as a Viking. They are the same
length as the 501 but a more slim lower boat with more traditional lines and a
counter stern. See the review of the Viking 28.
