**Detailed Description**
Tigger is Hull No. 1 of the C&C 33 Mark II — the very first example of the 33-2 produced. Unlike a typical production C&C 33-2, she was originally built without an interior. A custom interior was subsequently constructed, resulting in a boat that retains practical accommodations while remaining particularly light.
Her racing heritage is immediately apparent. Tigger is equipped with tiller steering rather than the wheel steering commonly seen on the model — a configuration that may be unique among C&C 33-2s. She also features full spinnaker gear, adjustable lead cars, a folding propeller, and a very extensive collection of sails. There are simply too many sails included to list individually.
Tigger has developed a great racing history on Lake Ontario and should appeal particularly to sailors who appreciate the performance and pedigree of C&C designs. Her lightweight configuration and racing equipment make her an especially interesting platform for club racing and regional regattas.
Despite her performance focus, the custom interior provides useful accommodations for cruising and overnight racing.
**Salon & Interior**
The salon features two settees and a fold-down salon table. There is a hanging closet for storage, along with a separate head area with a privacy door, marine toilet, and sink.
**Sleeping Accommodations**
A forward V-berth and a quarter berth are provided.
**Galley**
The galley area is equipped with a sink and two-burner stove, providing the essentials for weekends aboard or longer race events.
Tigger has spent her entire life in fresh water on Lake Ontario.

**Who Is This Boat Best For?**
Tigger is particularly well suited to the sailor looking for a performance-oriented C&C with genuine racing history rather than an ordinary production cruiser. She would make an excellent Lake Ontario club racer, regional PHRF racer, or performance daysailer while still providing the accommodations needed for overnight racing and weekend cruising.
For the C&C enthusiast, her significance as the first C&C 33 Mark II built — combined with her unusual lightweight interior and tiller steering — makes Tigger especially noteworthy.
