Default The Bent Boom

I haven't agreed with anything. You just seem to think PHRF is an absolute speed rating.
However, your local race committee rates their C&C 32's particularly slow - slower than
most other boats over 30 feet. Slower than every Benneteau over 28.5 feet. Slower than
most of the C&C 27's. Slower than a Cat-30 with the tall rig, and all larger Catalina's.
Slower than every Hunter over 30 feet. Slower than all the Nonsuch's. Slower than the
Pearson's and Rangers over 30 feet. Slower than Sabres down to 30 feet. Slower than
almost every Tartan down to 30 feet. And its hardly worth mentioning that you're slower
than every J, X, Mumm, Soverel, Express, etc.

So what boat is slower than a C&C 32? A number of boats 30 feet and less will be a few
seconds slower. And there are a few isolated boats that got special handicaps because of
a very limited sail inventory, etc.

But it looks like the C&C 32 is virtually the slowest boat over 30 feet in Long Island
Sound.

No, you're the person trying to prove your boat speed by using PHRF ratings. I
just point

Oh, so then you agree with me. Thanks.
