ust a few numbers say a lot about the CandC 99's performance. The sail area-to-displacement ratio is 21.5, the righting moment is 883 foot pounds per degree, the "J" (foretriangle) dimension is 13 feet, and the area of the spinnaker, courtesy of an oversize 14-foot, 6-inch pole, is 1,026 square feet. Other vital ingredients of the speed recipe include an easily-driven canoe body with minimum wetted surface; a near-plumb bow to maximize waterline; a deep, balanced spade rudder; a high-lift-foil keel for windward efficiency.
