Construction:
The Trapper 500 appeared originally in 1971 in North America as the C&C 27 from the design board of the Canadian team Cuthbertson and Cassian.
The C&C 27 design was licensed to Anstey Yachts of Poole and they took the basic hull mould to produce the Trapper 500 in 1972. Sometime during the second year of production after a limited number of hulls the keel was modified from lead to cast iron and reshaped to a flat base.
By the late 1970s and around the time the 500th yacht was produced, the design had phased over to the Trapper 501 with modifications to the aft cockpit section and coamings, the cabin roofline and to the C&C trademark scimitar rudder with its sweeping swan-neck tiller. The interior was also redesigned and improved although the hull remained unchanged. The 501 remained in production until 1987. |

Remarks:
Surveyed for insurance purposes in 2007 and all remedial work completed. The only major piece of work resulting from the survey was the splitting and rebuiding of the rudder.
