Glad you got it sorter, but crikey! Have just looked at the published handicaps - clearly produced by a Laser sailor (I know it’s on flat water, but even so…).
<hobby_horse> Why change the handicap of the most widely sailed boat in the UK (and world, probably) other than it saves changing lots of the other classes?</hobby_horse>
Mike, that was exactly our view, so we amended that (Laser) to 1100, then looked at the disappointing relative performance of the RS400 and 200, so amended those to 970 and 1070
Overall the changes have been smaller than I imagined except at the top of
the fleet where the Lasers where the obvious beneficiaries.

That was kind of my point (not to mention Laser 2, and any other boat that doesn’t do too well on flat water) - does anyone know where the SailJuice handicaps originated?
