I’m guessing most of the reviews are for boats with big changes in performance. PHRF Chesapeake has done some, but not often. Looking around the country, the 30-1, from hull number 1 (on the Chesapeake) to hull numbers over 600 seem to have the same 174 handicap (mine is number 593 and is 174 al

I, like many of us, am sometimes off the boat for days/weeks. I'd like to track the bilge cycles to indicate a problem. There are several options. 1. Buy a nice purpose built bilge cycle counter like the one from Water Witch for $80 or so 2. Replace my existing bilge switch with the Wat

I have these Omron H7EC-N Total Counter Got one on flea bay for 5 bucks as a replacement, so they are not all that pricy. They have a tiny battery in them that seems to last years, and I find it very helpful, as I would never have know that I had 18 cycles on one trip (Motoring) across th

Installed a counter, liked its security, but then bought a new water sensing bilge pump…Doh! Counting the water sensing cycles now and is essentially useless. Rule tells me there is no way to wire the counter to this technology. New bilge pump I guess. David F. Risch (401) 419-4650 From: Cn

You know man. Tell us all please And does it matter: wet or dry on these older sailboats. A wet bilge is a wet bilge. Hard to avoid on most 1970’s designs so probably possible on most older C&C designs. Actually a wet bilge is not that hard to live with on my boat the way i enjoy sailing. On Fri,

I am surprised that all the 30’s are rated the same given the dramatic differences in conditions they race in. San Francisco verses San Diego for example. Fred Hazzard S/V Fury C&C 44 Portland Or On Fri, Dec 13, 2019 at 7:08 AM Gary Nylander via CnC-List < cnc-list@cnc-list.com> wrote: > I’m gue

A friend of mine was chairman of the Western Long Island Sound PHRF committee, and he told me that across the country the PHRF committees give certain boats the same base rating, kind of yardstick boats, so to speak, so all the committees will be working to the same reference.  The C&C 35 Mk 1

Interesting discussion as I just decided to join the cruising class at our local club, which is for boats without an official PHRF rating; the club handicapper provides a rating for instead, and it is reviewed after each series of races based on results. Our 35-2 was given a rating of 175 based on

Actually, I would like to know as well, and would install a cheap version,  but I've not found on, but have not looked very hard. Why?  Because I want to know how much my boat leaks and if a trend is happening I don't know about. Am I getting a lot of water in the bilge when it rains?  When the
