ISAF international small catamaran handicap rating system has me confused.
Under Hobie it lists;
Hobie 20 Formula 1.02 and the Hobie FOX F20 0.95
and then totally separate from Hobie "choices"
Miracle 20 0.99
We recently purchased a Hobie Miracle 20, which rating applies? Is there an Euro or Asian version of the Miracle (Hobie 20 formula)? or is this a rating for the optional spi (or Miracle fitted for F20)? Which makes no sense that a "stock" Miracle would have a lower rating than a spi boat.
Understood the Hobie Miracle 20 was "patterned" after the Hurricane.
I don't know anything about what the word "patterned" exactly means, but when a Miracle turned up at Texel years ago Rob and Reg White were not at all happy!
