Here the deep keel is 99 and the shoal draft is 105. They sail well in all conditions and handle the 200% spinnaker well. Ours here are fitted with an 18” custom made stainless steel sprit which allows us to fly the asymmetrical as well.
Safe Sailing, Rod Stright President C&C 99 Class Association Halifax Nova Scotia From: CnC-List <cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com> On Behalf Of Dennis C. via CnC-List Sent: July-23-20 1:33 PM To: CnClist <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: Dennis C. <capt...@gmail.com> Subject: Stus-List C&C 99 I always thought the 99's were rated a bit fast. In my area we had a 99 which rated, coincidently, 99. We were about 12 miles down course in Touche' on a distance race years ago. We were about to roll over the 99. They owed us over 30 seconds/mile. And...they'd actually started 5 minutes ahead of us. They saw us and "woke up". They made some adjustments and gradually pulled away from us. Pretty boats. Would have been prettier behind Touche'. :) -- Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA On Thu, Jul 23, 2020 at 10:00 AM Gary Nylander via CnC-List <cnc-list@cnc-list.com <mailto:cnc-list@cnc-list.com> > wrote: 9.9 meters or 32 feet. As someone said, the first of the 99’s was shipped out to the Annapolis show with a cobbled up part of an interior (from a 110?) and Tim Jackett came with it to show it off. They assembled a crack crew and showed if off quite well (and it got a lousy PHRF rating that nobody else could quite live up to). That boat was Rabbit. Not the best marketing practice if you want to sell boat to mortal people. Gary 30-1 #593 St. Michaels MD
