[C38] PHRF rating versus actual displacement?

Has any one compared their actual displacement figures with the factory
specs?
I own hull number 13, POIA, here in New England. Have owned her for
almost 12 years.
I have the feeling she is "overweight" and like many boat mfgs I work
with this is not unusual to have a displacement spec that was a target
but not achieved. This particularly happens with the first few boats
built; they are over built which is a good thing.
However, I am going to have POIA measured this spring since if the
displacement is in fact much higher than the specs then her PHRF rating
is lower than it should be. I would be curious if other members have
any such experiences?
thanks
