You need to measure the size of the sail shackle as there are many different
sizes and styles. It doesn't need to match exactly, just the length is
important so the sail remains the same distance from the mast track.
The vent fitting is shot. I'd replace the whole fitting as you can see

Hi Randy
When comparing boats across different areas make sure you look at other boats
in those areas as well. Pacific NW tends to rate most of their fleet 9 – 12
sec/mile slower than most other areas … not just the C&C 30.
Also look at the prevailing wind conditions in the areas. Northern Ca
Most of our best racing fun happens whenever we see another mast on a boat
with similar rating to Alianna. These “races” usually take less than 15 min
to decide who has the edge on any particular tack then we break away to
have fun going wherever we want to go. That said we have done hundreds of

Different PHRF organizations in different parts of the country assign ratings
based on performance (the P in PHRF). If the boat does better in heavy
weather, for example, its racing results will be better in regions where there
is more wind (and thus a lower base rating). If it’s a light air b
What Edd refers to as “corruption” I referred to in my earlier note as “local
politics.” In my view Edd is correct – corrupt local politics is probably the
biggest factor in rating anomalies.

Well my 1981 40-2 is definitely a light air screamer. Yet she rates faster in
Buzzards Bay (home of the Smokin’ Southwester), than Narragansett Bay which has
lighter winds.
Go figure. I stick to long distance races now where those anomalies iron out
(hopefully).

The imperfections of handicap systems have been discussed a lot. You just
have to accept them with all their warts.
One protection against local politics is to race a boat which has several
sisterboats. If your boat is the only one like it in the fleet and you win
a lot, you probably will be hit
Correct (as usual) about sport boats. It’s hard to beat a boat capable of
doing sport-boat speeds in moderate to heavy air.

FWIW, stating what I learned. The PHRF is a rating based on projected boat
speeds in multiple wind speeds on every angle of the wind. They use one number
for a typical boat in all wind and sea conditions. This works OK for triangle

It seems like I got some from a small Canadian site on EBay once, they were

Kind of like Taylor Made style.

I have felt your pain Chuck!
I used to race regularly in a non-spin fleet of racer-cruisers with ratings
similar to mine out of Oriental, NC albeit with a crew of 4+. When we started
racing my 36XL/kcb with a 7.25 ' draft would usually be the first to the
weather mark on round the buoy races.
Have you tried using rigging tape? It works quite well.

Thanks, yes, rigging tape is my backup - especially the rubber-y stuff.

C&C Owners,
Below is an email I sent to friends and sailors about my recent single
handed trip from Hood River, Oregon to Olympia, Washington. As the crow
flies it is less than 200 miles, but on the water it is up around 550
nautical miles. Read below and see the link to my custom lee clothes on th
Thanks y’all for your interesting comments on this.
I got my new rating yesterday and it came back 180. The handicapper wrote in
the “notes and clarifications” section of my RSA’s PHRF certificate form the
following: "There are no comparables listed in US Sailing for this model of
boat in the
Charlie,
Sounds as though I have moved into your slot in Oriental. Oh yes The etchells
and j24 are still here! :)
I don't have the rating you do with my 37, but yes we are generally always
first to the weather Mark! Last week on the down wind leg same thing you
mention in 4-knots and Mr Tartan
As i know the C&C 30 MKI your phrf at 180 is fair. Don’t know about the
other boats you typically race against but 180 is good and especially if it
includes spin and folding prop. Max headsail use LP150 for this but in
light air the boat can easily handle a 160/170 probably with a
corresponding rat
Ok, being the frugal *ahem* I am, I can think of a number of solutions
including cutting your own leather, cutting thick but flexible highly UV
resistant plastic or even cutting and taping the highly abrasion resistant
white ribbed hose like West Marine sells for through hulls and waste hose.
John,
You are tempting me to come out of retirement! With you, Charlie, Mark
and maybe get Rick Brass to come down from Washington, we could have a 5
boat C&C class. Except for Charlie, we all have very similar PHRF
ratings! I won't make any promises, "life" is giving us some challenges
these
Thanks for sharing, Kevin. Sounds like you had a good trip, and excellent
experience.

Kevin,
Were you able to (or choose to) sail while headed up WA coast? Wind is
generally out of the north.
Also how far off the coast did you go and any issues with crab pots?
Recommendation that we got was to follow the 50 fathom line. But still saw
pot floats.
Congrats on your voyage.

Unfortunately, Jim Schwartz (Sea Ya, LF38) and I - and maybe Tex Melton (35’
Edge) - will be doing a delivery during the Dragon’s Breath. But I would
definitely be interested in doing a mid-Atlantic Rendezvous for the Oriental
Cup in September.
