Sea Sprite 34... Bwahahahahahaha!

PHRF 192 for a 34 foot boat? Bwhahahahahahahahaha!

SAD 15.3? Bwhahahahahaha!

Yeah, that's a real show stopper!

The PHRF rating is a gift. It sails way beyond it's rating. My particular
boat won second place in its division in the Chicago-Mac. And it
embarrasses supposedly faster boats regularly. A Catalina 34 (PHRF 144),
for example, can't stay with her on any point of sail. Off the wind with
main and chute I pass 410 Hunters like they are going backward. And a POS
C&C 27 couldn't keep my transom in sight.

PHFR? What is that? Penetrating Holistic Radio Frequency?

May as well be for any real-life the old handicap has. Truth be known,
Cut the Mustard is faster over the long haul than most boats in the
30-foot range unless they have folding or feathering props or unless
the voyage is in nothing but heavy air.

Face it, any voyage is a combination of light, heavy and no air. By
virtue of the fact my Coronado 27 has no propeller in the water
whatsoever and has a lovingly faired hull and keel, she is far
faster in lighter air than any heavy, unfaired and propeller-laden
thirty-footer. Admit to yourself that much of the time you sail
you sail in light air.

Take any week at random in the month of September and lay out
a course between Key Largo and George Town in the Bahamas.
Start on a pre-arranged day and time and I will put up my boat's
title against any thirty-foot cruising mono here with the stipulation
that motors cannot be used and I will own that thirty-footer.

Any takers?

Having sailed on Max's boat, and having sailed alongside of Max's boat, and
having seen Max's boat blast by some surprising other boat's, I'd say that
Max's boat is not the norm for your average crab crusher...and when he
throws the spinnaker up it boogies...

Ya know, comparing fin keel boats to crab crushers is really just an
exercise in futility...they are made for different kinds of sailing under
different conditions and for different temperaments...so comparing a Nordica
or a Sea Sprite with a C&C is sort of like comparing pomegranates with
bananas...they're both fruit, and that's about all they share...

It's sort of like Joe's specious arguments about steel boats. Not everyone
who sails wants to be tied to invest in Brillo for the rest of their
lives...so why can't we all just be glad for the boats we have and agree
that the only boats not worth having are Mac 26X's and M's and Coronado
27's?

The C&C 27 is a lovely little light air lake boat. Since you seem
obsessed with numbers, why don't you explain the capsize ratio of 2.2,
or the motion comfort of 15?

You have a beautiful daysailor/weekender, but the Seasprite is a boat
that can be trusted in any condition. Anyone who thinks it is ugly
doesn't know boats.

Numbers seldom tell the whole story. Of course Braindead Bill the Blowhard
has a serious case of size envy, so he pretends that size does not matter.
And the more I think about it, he really does sound like Jax.
