Redline 41
The Redline 41 is a series of sailboat designs, first built in 1967 and that remained in production in 2017. The first two designs were by Cuthbertson & Cassian and the more recent one by Mark Mills. The three different boats that have carried the Redline 41 name are all unrelated designs. Design and development. All the Redline 41 designs are small recreational keelboats, built predominantly of fiberglass and other composites. The earlier two designs were predominately built as cruising sailboats, whereas the most recent boat was conceived as a racer that can also be used for cruising. The  original Redline 41, later called the Mark I, was designed by Cuthbertson & Cassian and produced by Bruckmann Manufacturing, although only two were built between 1967 and the following year. The second model, known as the Redline 41 Mark II, was also designed by Cuthbertson & Cassian and produced by Bruckmann Manufacturing starting in 1969, which became part of C&C Yachts that same year. This version was similar to the earlier version, but used new molds and 35 examples were built. The boat remained in production until 1972, when sales declined and it was discontinued. Lindsay Plastics purchased the molds and produced  the Newport 41 from them under the name of Capital Yachts. The Redline 41 name was resurrected in 2014 with a new design by Mark Mills based on his 2001 design, the King 40. It was produced by US Watercraft who bought the C&C Yachts' name, using it as a marketing brand, until the company went out of business in 2018. Operational history. One of the two Redline 41 Mark Is produced was named "Condor" and won the 1972 Southern Ocean Racing Conference (SORC) championships.
