We have a Getaway which has raced in our fleets most of this season. The owner is an experienced big boat sailor,, but new to catamaran racing. He corrects out quite well against other B-fleet H16 sailors,, and it is not unusual for him to achieve a top 3 finish in his catagory. I had a lot of fun crewing for him one weekend,, and even enjoyed a proper pitchpole with it !!
<br>
<br>The current rating for the Getaway was a calculated probationary number set, based on performance expectations relative to other boats in its near performance.class.
<br>
<br>Our seasonal actual results will be submitted to USSA, and will undoubtedly result in a refinement of the existing rating. I hope that other RC's will see that thier results are submitted in a usable fashion as well. In what direction ?? Only time will tell.
<br>
<br>Keep at least one hull in the air,,,,,
