GBCA Discussion Forum

You would want to contact the PHRF board with that question. www.phrfgb.org

That said, there does not appear to be a 19r listed in the US Sailing national database. Therefore it might be hard to get one.

Gary,

Thanks for starting the thread. The Yard (next to Barge) is open at 5pm today. Darin and Amy plan to do awards there, starting at 7pm.

Thanks everyone for coming out.

The scale uses the slowest boat on the scale, the Pacific Seacraft 31, PHRF of 219 as the scratch start time of 11:39:32. The rest of the start times are the math based on the ORC differential.

The difference from the rum races is that the scratch time was based on the J22 as the slowest boat's PHRF. The Pacific Seacraft came later.

Amendment #2 to the SIs just posted.

Only change was to update the list of ORC boats starting times.

Amendment #2 Posted to SIs.

The only change was an update to the ORC start times to add additional boats.

Amendment #1 Posted this morning.

Apologies, but there was a typo in the coordinates for the "Virtual Mark" 2A boundary for the oyster reefs.

The coordinate should read:

  - San Leon Oyster Mitigation 2A ”Virtual Mark” (SLOM 2A): N 29o 32.310’ W 094o 56.817’

Thanks Gary,

If you go to the "Sailor Services" page, you can set up a log-in for no charge. That is where you have complete access to the database and can search for certificates.

We are working on getting a recording of last night's webinar posted so those that missed can access also.

Best,

Chris

Yes, we are working on finalizing the NOR so 2022 is a placeholder. All other pieces (Fees and dates) are correct. The correct NOR will be released shortly.

All of the Fall Series will be Rum Race format, so the combined NOR/SIs will be posted on the website shortly.

Gary,

Thanks for sharing the feedback. It is helpful, and we appreciate everyone coming out.

We've spoken to more than the two that chimed in here. So, "mathematically speaking" we are closer to a majority than not.

I suspect the scoring will come out the same if scored low point, which is the general intention. I was not quite sure how Regatta Network would shake out the entire 5 series, particularly with boats jumping in/out in a given series. That is what led to the Total Corrected Time verbiage. The general idea is, that a boat that shows up regularly and sails the fastest regularly, wins.

Good Evening Everyone,

We have just posted Amendment #3 of the Sailing Instructions:

https://www.regattanetwork.com/clubmgmt/mgmt_event_uploads.php?regatta_id=24978

The primary purpose of this Amendment is to simplify the start and minimize confusion. PLEASE NOTE: Review Section IX. The starting order, course, and GPS starting times are now fixed for the remainder of Series 4 and 5. Again, please review accordingly before tomorrow evening.

If you have any questions, feel free to reach out directly.

Thanks,

Race Committee
