JOIN SCORA if you are ready for more challenging, non-political handicap racing. Have you ever had these thoughts? My boat does well in light air but in heavy air we don't do well. This is inherent in any single number handicap system like PHRF and these "wind strength errors" are surprisingly large. (<<-- click on) Or, I don't want to have to fight the politics inherent in any subjective handicap system. THERE IS AN ANSWER WITH NO POLITICS JOIN SCORA And race AMERICAP system which uses the U.S. SAILING VELOCITY PREDICTION PROGRAM (VPP), a sophisticated computer program to calculate the potential sailing performance of a yacht under various conditions and course configurations which is kept secret to reduce potential exploitations of the rule, which has proven to reduce the corrected time difference span from first to last position in all races compared to PHRF. You are cordially invited to join SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA OCEAN RACING ASSOCIATION (SCORA) and race with the best. Very truly
