The 115 is rated 78/81 on the Chesapeake. 78 for spinnaker and 81 for non.
The difference for the one in our fleet is a longer than "J" pole.

Subject: Stus-List C&C 115 Racing Question

 

Hi everyone, I'm a new poster.  I've been lurking for about 6 months and
really appreciate the group's comradery and support of each other.  I do not
own a sailboat yet, although I've been lusting after the C&C 115 for the
last 8 years.  It seems to have the perfect blend of racing bones and
cruising comfort for deployment in Northern Michigan, principally on Lake
Michigan.

 

The one question I have is with the 115's PHRF rating.  While its national
ratings vary from 51 to 85, on Lake Michigan, 66 looks like its rating.  I
just wondered from those that have raced the 115, does that rating seem
fair?  Just comparing it to other possibilities is the J/109 which rates at
69.  Does the 115 really beat the J/109 on unadjusted time?  How do 115
racers feel about their PHRF rating?
