Always pleasantly surprised at the speed of the C&C. This past Sunday with 10
to 15kn wind I was sailing from Shelter Island with a friend in a 92 Morris
Justine. On the a 13 mile run between Orient Point and Westbrook CT on a beam
to close reach the C&C Landfall consistently outpaced the Morris. By the end we
were probably close to 3/4 mile ahead.
I though weight might be the biggest factor but the sail area to displacement
favored the Morris?? Does this come down to hull shape? Not sure I was out
sailing him as I think he was pretty dialed in as well. I suppose the Morris
may be more built for offshore maybe?? Would love some thoughts from the group!
Thanks in advance!!
