"The CS30s that are in good condition and raced well can sail to a 147 rating."
Michael PHRF handicaps are set to measure the boats that are sailed and prepped well". They are not set for boats that are not in good condition, are not prepped well and not sailed well. Those boats are expeceted to and deserve to lose unless club handicaps have some sort of fidge factor in place for new sailors etc ... Sorry for the rant but your description of a boat that can win with aggresive rating of 147 is exactly what handicapping is supposed to be all about. Handicap boat model not individual yacht or crew.

PHRF-LO for 2013: CS30 standard keel : 147 FS, 168 NFS CS30 shoal draft : 153 FS, 174 NFS CS30 wing keel : 153 FS, 174 NFS I have raced a C&C 30-1 against the CS30, both in the typical 1 mile legs windward leeward venue and on long distance races. The 147 FS rating is pretty aggressive for most CS30s The CS30s that are in good condition and raced well can sail to a 147 rating. Michael Brown Windburn C&C 30-1
