PHRF raing

Does anyone have the measurements for the cutter 37 necessary for a PHRF rating? Thanks

H-37 cutter

I show your rig dims. as: I=46.5' J=17.0' P=39.8' E=13.0' Here in the east end of Long Island sound, we rate your boat at 129 (our rating is too harsh, the national avg. is 148.75) Assuming you race in western Long Is. sound, I would guess that YRA-LIS would rate it somewhat higher (138 to 144?)Mark Dixon - Chief Handicapper, Eastern CT Sailing Assn.

Cutter calculation.

Mark, how is that calculation done since there are two sails in the foretriangle? And only one(genoa) goes to the masthead. Just curious, don't plan to race my H37C.

PHRF rating

thanks for the info. Another qestion. As we are looking over the form to be submitted, it states that if you have a heavier than standard crew you get more of a minus adjustment than if you have a lighter than standard crew. It seems it should be the other way around?
