Byron have now supplied me with the following ratings, by email:
"Based on Class information and that provided for Boat: Swallow BayRaider Exp :RNSA -Two Sisters, the handicap is 1071 with a uSA/Disp ratio of 18.1, a dSA/Disp ratio of 28.3 and a light displacement hull speed of 5.73 knots.
It is noted that Two Sisters was built in 2016 as a water ballasted DayBoat and does not have any form of crew hiking facility; the vessel has traditional woven polyester type sails consisting of a roller furling jib, fully battened mainsail with conventional roach and mizzen sail making a total sail area of 17.7sq.m, plus a mast mounted pole, bowsprit and the class asymmetric at 10sq.m.
If 'no asymmetric' then the handicap is 1096.
If 'no asymmetric' and 'no pole' then the handicap is 1099.
This type of craft is expected to have a wide range of race performance returns dependent on crew number, course and wind strength, if the course is a Windward/Leeward style course rather than an Olympic style course then a lesser performance can be expected."

I made a donation to Byron to run this rating computation, so if you find it useful, I would appreciate you making a small donation to The National Coastwatch Institution (NCI) on my behalf; thanks.
Peter T - re your earlier...
Good in parts? 1085 is within range, but perhaps not where you might have hoped?
Personally, I wish I hadn't mentioned by jib stick, home made from an old fishing rod! A proper carbon fibre fly-away pole may well become a winter project if I am to be "penalised" for my bodgers stick
