C&C or Catalina

As you recall, Hunter was the first CE -A rated US sailboat. (All of a sudden CE- A ratings carry some weight) Do you have anything to substantiate that claim? Let''s see it! I am not an expert on this, I just pulled CE rating stuff from a Google search. The Island Packet advertisement speaks for itself. Do you have a comparable Hunter advertisment? As far as I know, the advertisement is true , otherwise the dealer is deceiving the public in a big way. What proof do you have to that the IP was not the first US CE-A rated sailboat? I have no way of knowing. I do however, believe the statements of Catalina which I have seen in person. The C 350 is CE-A rated. It can easily beat around your cape. It can withstand Force 8 winds and 13'' waves.
