New handicap numbers are out for US Sailing Portsmouth system. Only change is in the 0-1 wind range.
2006:
Formula 16 spi F16 65.2 69.3 67.5 64.4 62.3
2008:
Formula 16 spi F16 65.2 68.4 67.5 64.4 62.3
Boat code, D-PN, 0-1 Beaufort wind range, 2-3 Beaufort wind range, 4 Beaufort wind range and 5-9 Beaufort wind range
Do the 2008 PN indicate numbers for sloop and cat rigged?
There are not separate ratings for 1-up and 2-up F16s. They have been combined. They were actually combined a few months ago while still using the 2006 tables.
I do not think that is enough of a drop to get the longer boat sailors not to complain, but oh well. We just play by the rules.
Who is turning in results in the B 0-1 stuff? This is where I absolutely sewer against the portsmouth fleet of Megabytes, Lasers, 505's and fireballs. I am certainly not looking forward to a faster rating. Of course, I can't score much worse against them.
Thinking I really need to get my head out of the boat.
B0-1 and I am either on the flats skiff fly fishing or drinking beer on the beach. On a good B0-1 day it will probably be both. <img src=
