Anybody have any comments on what they would like to see (or think is "fair") as far as Portsmouth Numbers for F 16HP's?



If you apply the "spinnaker modification" number to the Taipan 4.9 (sloop and uni) numbers you get the following: (First number is "base" number, rest are wind speed dependent numbers starting at Beaufort 0-1, 2-3, 4, 5-9- Not sure how many races are run at Beaufort 9!!)



Formula 16HP sloop spi

66.9 70.3 68.4 65.4 63.1



Formula 16HP uni spi

67.6 71.5 70.0 67.3 64.4



The Hobie Tiger (F 18) numbers (just for comparison since Texel rates F 16HP sloop equal to F 18):

64.8 67.5 66.4 64.0 60.1
