Hey guys...help me out? Trying to get my PHRF numbers correct, and since Lake Michigan is getting thinner, how much water I have under my keel. So...I've been using a 5'11" figure for our 1990 37/40+ Daydream, hull 51. I found this, and other rig measures listed on the Sailboatdata.com website. I just saw another measurement on the CNC listserv in the 37/40+ site, and it is 5'6". In fact, all the wingy 37/40+ boats listed here have the 5'6" draft listed.
So. I went out and measured my waterline to the floor (86"), and subtracted the height of the block under my keel (-6"). My final measurement is 80"...or last I did the math...a whopping draft of 6'8". What the heck? Am I missing something? I wonder what my PHRF oughta be...and better stay outa shallow-er areas now!! I asked our ex-C&C dealer here, and they guessed it might be a custom thing. Anyone heard of this? Or have variations of the 5'6" or 5'11"? *Chuck Saur* 517 490-5926 Cell
