SOME NOTES ABOUT CHANGES IN OUR PHRF RACING

1) The PHRF Fleet has been split into  two classes -“RACING – A”  for boats faster than 200 sec/mi and “CRUISING – B” for those 200 and above. Results for the current Saturday series have been re-processed to incorporate this change (included below). Currently both classes share the same start but if numbers warrant separate starts can be called.

2) “Penalty” scoring changes. For DNF and RET we had been using “Finishers+1”, the RRS’s specify “Starters+1”, we are now compliant. Scoring DNC is a bit more tricky for us. The RRS’s say “All boats registered for the series +1”. Without a formal registration process for most of our series, we have been including any boat that turns up at the starting line before any race as “registered for the series”. In practice that means that several boats that only show up for a couple of races can really hike the score for a regular boat that has to miss just a couple of races. We are currently evaluating scoring DNC as, for each race in the series, “Starters+2”. This is not ideal as it is possible, for a poorly attended race within a series, that a missing boat could score better than had they competed.
