Dennis:
Interesting observations on different boats and their performance on
different points of sail. The listers should pay close attention to
these posts before they go 'hook up' on a fellow C&C sailor.
Some years back, we were campaigning a 1985 C&C 33 MKII with beautiful
new sails. At a regatta in East Bay, in the Bras d'Or Lakes, Cape
Breton Island.......we found ourselves racing against, among other
boats, a well sailed C&C 35 MKII from Shediac, New Brunswick.
The 33 MKII would take the 35 MKII to weather/beat, every time, and
point a bit higher, but the 35MKII would take it all back on the reach
and run. The course was an 8 mile beat, 2 mile reach, 8 mile
run......we always lost a bit on the reach, however, we were always
overtaken, after being ahead of this boat all race, about 3/4 of the way
down the spin run....and there wasn't a darn thing we could do about
it......it happened repeatedly. And we knew how to fly a spinnaker.

I raced my 35-1 against a 35-3 CB in a 100 mile distance race two
years running. First year was a 15 mile beat followed by 85 miles
chute carry and broad reach. The 35-3 beat us by about 10 minutes
corrected. They hung with us the entire race.
The second year was 15 miles close reaching and then 85 miles beating
into 10-20 knots and 2-6 foot seas. We beat the 35-3 CB by 2 1/2 hours.

The CB version is rated 6 seconds slower for Chesapeake PHRF FWIW.
I'm not sure why, it should be faster off the wind. My only
concern specific to the CB vesrion would be to see if the CB
pennant has been replaced.

Where are you from Dan? St. Mary's City is about 45-60min
from me if you need local eyes on the boat.

Hi, anyone on the list familiar with this particular
boat? More generally, any specific concerns with the
centerboard version of these boats? How do they point?
Thanks,
Dan
