There is a club handicap table in the year book.
What's the number of your boat?

My local club was "slightly" suspect when I sugested there were a scale of PY's for older boats, but were then more than happy to oblige when I should them the year book with it's RYA backing,etc to these figures. The Morale is join the class association & back it, all the best Barry.

I've got 3429, are the figures both numbers inclusive or is 3428 the last boat to have +10.
Also if I cant find a crew soon it could be up for sale soon (rowsell NSM4) watch this space!
