HI Steve:  Just to add to the listing…………..my 1977 38 is Hull #125; the 
original build paperwork shows that it was built in the “Bruckman Shop” and has 
the designation of MKIIC.  Someone mentioned the PHRF ratings of the two……….New 
England PHRF rates the MKI at 111 and the MKII at 114.  Go figure.

 

My experience is that a rating around 114 would be tough to sail to in our 
fleets up here.  Adding the cruising allowance for a working roller furling 
adds 6 seconds to the racing rating.=120.   That makes my “Cruising” rating 132 
for a masthead rig.  Since I use an ASYM instead of a Symmetrical Spinnaker. I 
can declare “no pole” and that adds 9 Seconds to the 120………so today, I’m 
sailing with a racing rating of 129 and the cruising rating of 132………..and the 
boat will definitely sail to those ratings. 

 

This boat looks and runs like new……….even better with the Yanmar 
Saildrive……………recommended by Rob Ball.

 

Best,

 

Ron C.

Thanks for the replies guys. I guess I'm not crazy then! If the owners 
themselves don't know the difference I don't feel so bad. Also, it means the 
older boats are worth considering. I'm also reading mixed reports of cored vs 
non-cored hulls. Anyone care to comment on that one?? Mostly I read that they 
are cored all the way down.

 

Thanks,

Steve

                My 1976 hull# 99 has old perf papers that call it a mk I.  I 
have been trying to find out the difference for years. At the Mystic rendezvous 
I asked Rob Ball and he didn't know said it might have been a marketing thing.
