i've been wondering about this hull for a while.
i will state that i am not interested in one, and don't find them particularly good looking, like the other jc's (no disrespect to jc owners at all, my good friend has one and i fish it quite alot, and its a champ, but i don't like the 'clipper bow')
anyway, i'm getting off course. what i'm wondering is: the jc 31 is extremely popular, and this design will probably continue to be for quite a while. 35 is popular too. popular enough for eastern to carry on building it. what happened to the 26? was is a bad design? did the mold get ruined? there's one that comes up in my boatyard. the owners live on a little island, and use it as an suv, have done for ages. its stable, they beat it up, its built like a brick shithouse.
long story short: what happened to this hull?
