Alan,
The 35-II and the 35-III, while both are 35's, they are somewhat
different boats...and here in Nova Scotia...the PHRF for the 35-II is
126 and the 35-III is 123...some other places have the 35-III PHRF at
120....not a lot but a difference. And the 33-II here is rated 132,
which on many race days depending on circumstances (crew, sails, wind
shifts, tactics, luck), any one of these 3 C&C designs can win the race.

I don't know how the Mk II compares with the Mk III, but when I raced
with a #3 (105%) genoa, I pointed five degrees higher than most boats
in our PHRF fleet. Any small loss in speed was more than made up for
by the better pointing angle. I was frequently first to the weather mark.

While what you say is valid, the point earlier being was that the
33-II will out point the 35-II....and the 33-II which sails in St
Margaret's Bay where you sail will out point your35-II (even
sailed single handed).....wouldn't you agree?
