f a C&C 99 has a PHRF of 99 and is only slightly faster than a 35s5
with a
PHRF of 132, wouldn't the 35s5 then be almost indistinguishable from an

Express 30 with a PHRF of 139?

A 35s5 is barely faster than a Express 30 and the Express 30 might beat
it around the cans with a good crew. Both are pretty quick boats. The
main difference is that the 35s5 has nicer cruising/family setup than
either the Express or C&C.
I prefer the C&C 34XL to all...accept for the draft issue.
