BayRaider Yardstick Estimate

(1/1)

Craic:
From some dogfights with some other dinghies of the 'Elb H-Jolle' class I estimate the Yardstick handicap of the BayRaider must be around 110.
However, that number does not take into account the heavy weather capability of the BR, as it is just an average weather speed index for Yardstick racing.

Julian Swindell:
Hi Claus
Is this different from the Portsmouth Yardstick handicap numbers used in the UK? They are all around 1000 rather than 100.

Julian Swindell:
Hi Claus,
If you have got the yardstick right, that puts the BR in some very commendable company. Blows the Drascombe Lugger away at 135.
