seems a bit generous to me, I would suggest 900 as J80 is 880 with IRC of .970 and B25 has IRC of .960.

Last year sailed with a PY of 892 but thought it was slightly harsh.

I have a projection 762 with IRC of .964. We sail off 880 at our local club, which is a bit harsh and 905 at another club, which is a bit generous. B25 off 900 is about right.

There was a Platu 25 racing on the Forth with a handicap of 892... It doesn't sound far wrong. |

The Windermere PY for Ben 25's is 925, I would be happy with that,, if I can persuade the race committee. Corms |

Don't let them see the Byron Software handicaps list then, it places the Platu 25 at 862! We raced against one from time to time - it was hugely quick in light winds. |

Hi Chic I have never heard of that handicap sytem, probably just as well by the look of the handicap. When or where do they use this system? We actually used 892 because of the boat on the Forth called Warthog, I think. It is hard to sail to in mixed fleets. |
