John,
Where are you located? I have a C&C 33-II centerboard version and love her! I'd love to chat with you as we have done just about everything you can to her so know the boat well .... Perception summers at Newport Yacht Club-Stoney Creek, and winters at 50 Point - where she is now on the hard L. If you are nearby I'd be glad to show her to you ..... On your questions - The board is on a stainless steel pendant that goes back to a 2-1 and then to a self tailing winch. We replaced the pendant this year. It does take a couple of degrees of the pointing in theory, but I found her able to point pretty well when we were racing her. Never found her slow - won our share when we sailed well. They do hate higher than a full keel version in PHRF.

I am looking for a comfortable boat that races well. From what I can see, this is a nicely appointed boat. I would be interested to hear from anyone who races this yacht. The particular boat that is nearby is a centre board configuration. Mechanically, how does this operate? How does it affect the boat's ability to point? Does it make the boat slower than a fin keel?
