Perhaps he can take the Cup away again in Torquay in 1998. The BOA has been active within the lOA on a number of important issues. Of particular interest to the UK class are the subjects of professionalism and sail measurement. The BOA's view on professionalism is that a line needs to be drawn in the sand, in an effort to prevent outright, 'paid cash to sai l and more to win ' practices from developing. The reasoning is that a fleet which tolerates such sailors risks the loss of the broad base of amateur support that the Class now enjoys. The lOA is considering the issue in the context that we also enjoy- and do not want to lose- the involvement and support of numerous boatbuilders, sailmakers and 4 Notice of AGM The Annual General Meeting of the Association will be held at the Royal Thames Yacht Club, Knightsbridge at 18.45 on Friday January 16th 1998 AGENDA ANNUAL DINNER 1.

  • Portsmouth Number List 2016
    Portsmouth Number List 2016 The RYA Portsmouth Yardstick Scheme is provided to enable clubs to allow boats of different classes to race against each other fairly. The RYA actively encourages clubs to adjust handicaps where classes are either under or over performing compared to the number being used. The Portsmouth Yardstick list combines the Portsmouth numbers with class configuration and the total number of races returned to the RYA in the annual return. This additional data has been provided to help clubs achieve the stated aims of the Portsmouth Yardstick system and make adjustments to Portsmouth Numbers where necessary. Clubs using the PN list should be aware that the list is based on the typical performance of each boat across a variety of clubs and locations. Experimental numbers are based on fewer returns and are to be used as a guide for clubs to allocate as a starting number before reviewing and adjusting where necessary. The list of experimental Portsmouth Numbers will be periodically reviewed by the RYA and is based on data received from the PY Online website (www.pys.org.uk). Users of the PY scheme are reminded that all Portsmouth Numbers published by the RYA should be regarded as a guide only. The RYA list is not definitive and clubs should adjust where necessary.
