Hi,
I just bought a Capri 22 with brand new class genoa and main from North Sails. The genoa is a 155% so our PHRF fleet captain is giving us a -3 off the base rating. My question is, What size jib or genoa is the base rating based off of?

Welcome to the Forum.

A couple of questions -

What is your PHRF rating as assigned by your fleet Captain?

How much of an adjustment / penalty was tacked on for the tall rig?

PHRF New England uses the following:

BASE HANDICAP
CAPRI 22 FK 201
CAPRI 22 TM 195
CAPRI 22 WK 213



For my SRWK:
racing PHRF = 219 = 213 (base) plus +3 (headsail ≤ 135%) plus +6 (recreational)
cruising PHRF = 228 = 213 (base) plus +3 (headsail ≤ 135%) plus +6 (recreational) plus +6 (cruising - no spinnaker, etc.)

For the past years I have raced under the cruising PHRF.
This year I will use an asymmetric spinnaker. Depending on the bow sprint, my racing PHRF will be changing.

Since I use the PHRF racing as practice sailing to improve my skills, I am less concerned whether the ratings are "perfect".
If I was that finicky, I would race One Design.

For 2016 I expect my PHRF to be 216

213 Base and + 3 for less then 720 lbs. crew weight.

Same for when I sail non-spinnaker. I have a 12 ft. whisker pole. and a 150 hank on genoa.

For non-spinnaker, had I limited my whisker pole to the length of a J then I would have received an additional + 6.
