I think overall (Kurt you're the class President so chime in here)
considering the age of the boat, the materials currently being built into
newer boats (like the new C&C 9.9 which has a lot of carbon fiber including
the entire mast, a different keel with most of the weight down low which
allows them to stay on their feet even though they have a substantially
lower ballast to displacement ratio than the Frers 33, a water line that is
31 inches longer and basically a completely different bottom shape) would
make you want to take a hard look at adjusting the PHRF of the class.  If
you're racing anything other than one design you're struggling.  The C&C 9.9
has a PHRF of 102 which says it is 12 seconds a mile faster than the Frers
33.  It' honestly a lot faster than that (by observation).  Or the Frers 33
is not as fast as it used to be.
 
My two cents worth.

A friend here on the Chesapeake who races J-29s now (PHRF 111) but who raced
on and against (in J-29s) Frers 33s on the great lakes, believes strongly
that they should be at least 120.  He says he has the data to support it
which he has offered should we decide to ask for reconsideration of the base
rating on the Chesapeake.  I've been reluctant to pursue it since it would
affect others and could backfire given the lower base ratings elsewhere.

I'm on the Chesapeake Bay and our PHRF here is 114.  Higher than a lot of
places but still 120 would be better.  At 114 we are one of the slowest
boats in the PHRF "A2" class which runs from about 84 to 119.  At 120 we'd
be one of the faster boats and that class runs from 119 to 154.
