Hi everyone, I'm a new poster. I've been lurking for about 6 months and really appreciate the group's comradery and support of each other. I do not own a sailboat yet, although I've been lusting after the C&C 115 for the last 8 years. It seems to have the perfect blend of racing bones and cruising comfort for deployment in Northern Michigan, principally on Lake Michigan.
The one question I have is with the 115's PHRF rating. While its national ratings vary from 51 to 85, on Lake Michigan, 66 looks like its rating. I just wondered from those that have raced the 115, does that rating seem fair? Just comparing it to other possibilities is the J/109 which rates at 69. Does the 115 really beat the J/109 on unadjusted time? How do 115 racers feel about their PHRF rating?
