Area 7:

The meeting was called to order at 8:15 PM.
Bill Baxter discussed a new publication from US
Sailing showing the PHRF Average ratings from the US Sailing PHRF Book. He had
prepared an extract of ratings for common boats in our area that he handed out.
Bill also brought up the issue of how taut the
lower lifelines are required to be. This is something that is not under the
purview of the PHRF Committee, but will be passed on to the Handicap Racing
Committee. They should verify whether the PHRF Regulations refer to the
measurement method in the ORC regulations.

| Bangarang - J 92 has replaced
the mast and has moved ISP from 38' to 42.9'. SLU 52.5, SLE 45.0, SF
25.5, SMG 26.75. Our base ratings note says masthead spinnaker at ISP of
38.0, and no P or E were reported. Linc Schoenberger to investigate. |

| Bavaria 38 - letter from owner
Phil Imhof. Boat rated last month is a Bavaria 36 with a short mast, and
is more comparable to a Beneteau Oceanis 351 or Jeanneau Sun Odyssey
36.2 than boats that rate 132. |

Crew Weight Credits
Excalibur III - sail #405, Phil Imhof wants 900# on 1,800# std.

Other Business
A motion was made, seconded and carried to not in the Non-Spinnaker
regulations that the spirit of non-spinnaker racing is that boats go
downwind with the same sails they go upwind with, so any mizzen
staysails are not allowed. Also, headsails must be flown attached to the
headstay.
A question arose as to whether a boat
rated for a roller furling 150 could fly a #3 and then hoist the 150,
but not on the furler. A motion was made, seconded and carried that if a
roller furler credit is given, the sail so rated must be used at all
times. The roller furler credit needs to be documented in the
regulations.
The re-validation questionnaire needs
to be reviewed to make sure that it asks if any changes have been made
to the gear for which cruising credit was given. A motion was made,
seconded and carried to add the ISP measurement to the PHRF Certificate
for next year and ask for it on the re-validation questionnaire.
Linc Schoenberger volunteered to
analyze the crew weight credits that have been granted with a view to
their consistency. June Kendrick will send him a spreadsheet of the
boats with credits.
The next meeting will be on November 8,
2007, 8PM, at the Larchmont Yacht Club. The meeting was adjourned at
9:25 PM.
