C mark I to IV all have 4.5 foot draft, but the mark 1 and II will be better for PHRF racing if not light air and only double handed. The mark III and IV versions are faster in light air but more tender and require rail meat to work best when the wind picks up. All versions are seaworthy, easy

This subject has come up a number of times, and due to the difficulty of access, many C owners have opted to screw in a hose fitting in place of the grease cup and run a line to a grease nipple at a more convenient location. As others have mentioned, all is above the water line, so no worries

Hi David, I just signed up for this website, so not sure how it works. But, about your issue - my C 34 from 1980 has the same grease cup. It is above the waterline, so no worries about sinking the boat. I think you can buy a similar fitting and replace what you have by unscrewing the metal

Stus-List Whisker pole

In PHRF Long Island Sound, the whisker pole length is limited to your LP dimension (clew to luff), not sure how other areas address pole length. If you sail non-spinnaker and use your spinnaker pole with the jib, you can actually get a credit depending on the size of the jib. Neil Gallagher

For us, Whisker poles are not treated the same as the spinnaker pole which is true for many other regions. Again, no mention of it in the phrf docs and everybody's using whisker poles that are long enough to be effective. Truth is: A spin pole's length is woefully inadequate as a whisker pole
