Burt,
The 3/4 ton term is a reference to the old IOR rating system. It was an
effort to create level rating
I own a 1974 CC 33 ¾ ton
I have looked around a bit and cannot find any reference to the term 3/4
ton (in CC terms). I did find the spec sheet available on sailboatdata.com
for the ¾ ton but no explanation there. If anyone on the list can point me
in the right direction I would appreciate

Don't forget to take into account things that stick up from the top of
the mast, such a VHF antennas. That could add 2 or 3 feet. Also add in
the distance from the top of the cabin to the top of the boom, which is
not part of the P dimension.

The CC 3/4 Ton was a standard CC 33 hull but with a custom deck and
interior. They were built in the Custom shop in Oakville. I was crew on one
owned by the Long Island CC dealer Bill Cook that raced in the 3/4 Ton
North Americans in New Orleans that year with Butch Ulmer, Bob Connell, and
Billy
The i dimension is shown as 43 feet, which is essentially truck to deck.
Add the measurement for deck to water and you have air draft. (Plus stuff
like Windex, VHF antenna, etc.). At a wild guess I would think air draft
would be something approaching 50 feet.

Burt,
The 3/4 ton term is a reference to the old IOR rating system. It was an effort
to create level rating classes of boats that could be raced with figuring
handicaps. Do a search on IOR ton rating.

Burt,
James’ answer leading you to search using “IOR ton rating is good advice. In
short, the term “ton” was based on an IOR rating band that allowed IOR boats to
race “one design
