Kevin, some one asked me this question. In the Cruising clas is it legal to fly a cruising spinnaker or not. I think not, but wait for your reply!

Kevin Box

You can go either way.  If you intend to use a spinnaker from the get-go, you should start with that rating when you register.  We encourage learning and development of skills, so if after some time you want to try one, go ahead and whip it out.  Your rating will adjust over time depending on its effect on your performance.

Good taste and the Corinthian spirit suggest that you don?t fly a kite for the first time during a major regatta.

The ratings for Icicle Race #4 are now current on the GBCA Club Handicap entry page:

Good luck!
