[quote=robpatt]again, now worries... I don't usually sail class legal either, cause I want to keep my "marginal" condition class hobie sails as good as possible for the rare occasion we do host a legit hobie event...
that said, man, I take all kinds of ratings hits/adjustments...
- I'm under minimum weight with crew, so that's a hit
- my mainsail is not class legal (but not more than 5% over.. so that's a hit
- and when I put the spin on... of course I take a hit for that...
I take the adjustments so that "IF" I happen to beat someone, they can't come back and say it's cuz I didn't take the appropriate ratings adjustments...
They're easy to calculate and apply, and keep everything fair... and we're happy to do it for you... and swappign out tramps doesn't make the boat faster... you'd just rate as a stock H18SX... 71.3, whereas the basic starting number for a normal H18 is 71.4.. before any adjustment...
bottom line... don't worry, we like to take 'er easy...[/quote]
