The C&C 33-2 is very fast on a beat. It has PHRF 132 and the older 35-2 has PHRF 120. On a beat it’s hard for the 35-2 to stay with the slower rated 33-2. However from close reach to run the 35-2 excels. It is difficult for a faster rated C&C 37 (PHRF 105) to stay with the slower rated C&C 35-2 on those points of sail. I like sailing off the wind on a close reach, who doesn’t? That with the well know strong construction of the older 35’s was one reason I got my 35-2 instead of a newer 33-2.
