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 is one of those, possibly the 30 Mk 1 is too.

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.

    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 also). There may be
    exceptions, but I would doubt that Randy’s boat (assuming it has
    not been modified in major ways) would prompt a review. I’m not
    sure what one would do to a 30-1 to increase performance unless
    you cut a bunch of weight off the keel – and that would decrease
    it’s performance in heavy weather. At the Chesapeake rendezvous a
    couple months ago, I got to look at Rick’s number 1 and it is very
    similar to my 593, only differing is the area of chainplate
    attachments and some cabinet doors.

        Well Lee, since you bring up PHRF reviews, let me ask you
        listers, how often do your clubs or RSAs conduct rating
        reviews and adjustments?

        The introduction in “the book”
        (https://www.ussailing.org/competition/offshore/phrf/phrf-handicaps/)
        says under heading "Considerations when using this listing to
        determine a handicap by averaging fleet data” that "After the
        initial handicap is chosen and the boat is raced, an empirical
        analysis of performance may permit a more refined estimate of
        its speed potential.”  And a review of
        
https://www.ussailing.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/USPHRF-Fleets-1.pdf shows
        that most clubs derive handicaps from “the book,” then review
        and adjust based on local experience.

        So, how many of y’all do that?

        Cheers,

        Randy

            Dear Sir,

            RE:  Randy Stafford  S/V Grenadin   C&C 30 MK I #79
             LISTED as Hull #7

            I have put in a request for an immediate PHRF review of
            your boat. With over 70 shipyard refinements, it’s clear
            now, why your boat is so fast, and only right that your
            rating reflect the changes you failed to document.  I
            expect the board will want to question you very carefully
            about the additional changes to your boat over and above
            the documented 1972 norms.  I have suggested that the
            penalty not be limited to just changing a PHRF number, but
            the monetary fine should reflect the price of the current
            boat you have chosen to race.  Perhaps if you raced a
            newer more expensive boat, you would be disinclined to
            perpetrate this excessive winning streak, which is
            depressing both the local fleet and the attendance of
            future sailors to the sport.  You should hear from the
            PHRF board by the end of the month.

            Regretfully, Lee

                Listers-

                When I was buying my 30 MK I (HIN 30007972) four years
                ago, I came to the conclusion she was hull number 7
                laid up in September 1972, I think based on this old
                post:
                
http://cnc-list.com/pipermail/cnc-list_cnc-list.com/2012-April/044412.html.

                Meanwhile a discussion arose recently in the Facebook
                C&C Owners Group where a guy asked how to decode HIN
                30002672.  I emailed Rob Ball hoping for
                clarification, and Rob referred me to Rob MacLachlan
                of South Shore Yachts. Rob MacLachlan said
                definitively I have hull #79, not hull #7.  So the HIN
                format C&C used before standardization on November 1st
                1972 apparently didn’t include any digits indicating
                the month in which the hull was laid up.

                I’ll be damned, I said. All this time I thought I had
                hull #7.

                Rick Bushie on this list owns 30 MK I hull #1, and his
                HIN plate says simply “30-1 1971N”.

                Brian Buttigieg in the Facebook group owns 30 MK I
                hull #5, he says, but hasn’t posted his HIN yet.

                Jack Rousseau in the Facebook group owned 30 MK I hull
                #8 and said it was made in 1971.

                Sean Dillon in the Facebook group owns 30 MK I hull
                #14 and says it’s a 1971 boat.

                Ed Levert on this list owned hull #19 and thought it
                was a 1971 boat.

                The owners of HINs 30002672, 30005972, and 30009472
                have also been heard from here or in the Facebook group.

                Steve Guiney in the Facebook group owns hull #123 and
                his HIN is CCY301231172 (CCY was later used by the
                Rhode Island factory but it didn’t open until February
                1976)

                It seems clear that C&C changed 30 MK I HIN formats at
                least twice over the production run.  And I shall
                change my email signature according to what I’ve learnt.

                Cheers,
