Donnie, your P-185 is a faster boat than the P-23.

In Response To: Yeah I get the feeling ... (Donnie - P-185 "DonSail" #96)

The P-185 is a high performance boat. Here are the Portsmouth handicapping numbers. Without a spinnaker the P-185 should clobber the P-23, all else being equal.

The Portsmouth numbers start with Force 0-1, 2-3, 4, and 5-9.

Precision 18.5 no spi PRS185 90.2 (91.5) [90.2] (88.0)

Precision 23 PRS23 96.0 98.0 97.1 95.6 (92.0)

Donnie I will do my best to sail well, but the 185 is a very formidable sailing boat. Looking at several other popular boats, the 185 should run neck and neck with a Hunter 25.5 or a tall masted Catalina 25.

I do not underestimate the potential of any Precision made Boat.

Looking forward to seeing all of the Precision Boaters.

Pete
