Oh the horror!

Lost one race and won by 0.8% (0.008) on averaged times.

35s5 PHRF = 129
Dufour 38 PHRF = 111


A fine example of handicap racing eliminates the boat factor and puts it all
on the crew.

So what's your point?

Amen!

Ohhhhhh....I see!!!
So please explain this: When we sailed the 35s5 in St. Petersburg we
were able to pass a Catalina 34, Pearson 39 and and quite a few other
nice boats....with JUST OUR MAIN UP!!! Everyone was on a reach most of
the time. I must be a GREAT sailor or the 35s5 is got some balls.
Also: When we sailed the 35s5 out of Oyster Bay winds were puffing
between 3, 4 and 8 knots. The 35s5 never faultered and touched 5 knots
at times! We passed everything except for a First 36.7 and a big C&C of
some type. Either I'm a great sailor or the 35s5 has some balls!
Maybe it's just that everyone else can't sail their boats in heavy or
light air. They have no feel for it.
Yeah...that's it!

Smell that? It's the Crantz fish cooking! Get the butter!!!!!

One case is a handicap race with everyone sailing with the same intent, the
other is anecdotal evidence of people leaving the parking lot.

In the former case an appropriate observation is that the handicap system
works. For the latter case your observation is probably almost correct:
"everyone else can't sail their boats in heavy or light air." It could also
be that they didn't intend to race you, did you ask them?

If you want to smell some fish cooking, stick around flounder boy. I'll
easily slap you back into your place, and I don't own a boat or even know
how to sail!

Amen!

I've sailed a Catalina 36 and 34. I don't need to race to know that
they are years slower than the 35s5 in light air. Of course you only
need to look at the SA/D and wetted surface along with ratings to have
a clue about that. The Catalina is a cruiser and makes no pretenses
about outrunning a 35s5 or J34c.

Of course, that doesn't prevent me from making pretenses about whipping
their butts!

More likely, you're just a liar. That's what you usually admit in the
end.

Right, jeff! The Catalina 36 is a faster boat in light air. You said
it!

that's what I've been trying to tell you.

Why is anyone still discussing the 35s3s speed potential or lack there
of. Race results from over a dozen events have been posted that showed
the 35s5 finishing last. That in itself would maybe not be conclusive
but the fact that at many of these events all the boats in the next
class down the list that started 5 minutes after the 35s5 also kicked
it's butt and not on corrected time but actual finish time. The really
telling thing also was that they were all different 35s5s!!!!!!!
Boobie give it up Bud.
