It's not being reported accurately or very often. I've had discussions with Darline about it. She has to do an incredible amount of manipulation to get the data that she receives in an operable fashion and a lot of people don't use the variable wind ratings (which are much more accurate than the straight DPN number).


This is the information that I was seeking. Pure conjecture doesn't get us anywhere.

We also should consider what happens when classes are raced by themselves. Presumably you wont be able to run numbers on a race where the boats aren't starting together. This would make classes like the F18, and regionally NF17 relatively stable since they are class racing in most cases.
