Handicappers !

Have you considered running some of our videos on your Sail Measuring day?

You might run 2-3 of the videos in conjunction with sail measuring.

What classes are being reviewed and why?

The big question every year is: Why did this class get a handicap change.

There are 3 possible reasons:

At the November 20, 2021, Central Council reviewed the use of bloopers and approved a ban on their use for regular racing.

Over the past several years, it has been discussed and approved to move toward consistency in how we measure sails.

We need feedback to address a concern raised at the last Central Council Spring 2021 - Zoom Meeting.

Since 2018 PHRF-LO has been awarding racers for participation in events around the Lake and surrounding waters.

These events are listed on our Championship Events Calendar and are scored according to the rules listed in this article.

Due to the continuing challenges with Covid 19 and holding this event via Zoom, we have regrettably decided to cancel the 2022 Spring Training Session.

We do look forward to resuming our in person workshops again starting in 2023.

In the meantime, we would like to encourage you to view our many Youtube videos that cover last years event and subsequent sessions covering many topics:
