Personal Handicaps

Thanks Rob Walker and Colin for the advice on PH. The person who
currently runs results for Langstone SC is a member here too, so
hopefully he will see all the correspondence.

I hadn't heard of the PH methods mentioned, but we were looking at
the RYA model as per the YR2 handbook published each year with the PN
numbers.

It is a simple calc. and possible to run this method on a
spreadsheet, but it's quite a grind putting in all the numbers each
week.

Perhaps we should check out the virtues of the Dart 18
and 'Ostrobogulous' systems - where could we get info on these?

All the best and looking forward to Sailwave 2.

Hi Jenny,
