Does anyone know the PHRF rating for a 1995, water ballasted Hunter26? I was informed that because it is water ballasted it cannot have a rating. This doesn't make sense because the ballast cannot be removed or moved in the boat while it is in the water.

Somebody does'nt know what he is talking about

Go to Google punch in PHRF and you will find a PHRF site for your area. The numbers are different for some area's based on local conditions. But you can race a water ballasted boat. A 23.5 rates a 246 for Lake Erie. As of now they do not have a 26 listed because no one is has gotten a PHRF Certificate for it. I checked around and found in Mass. they give it a 255 and in So Cal they give it a 216. Cliff

PHRF legal , correction

I checked with the chairman of our local PHRF committee and he said that if the water ballast were to remain in one place and not shipped about on any give tack then it would be considered PHRF legal.
