There is now: https://www.ssanz.co.nz/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/2022-Triple-Series-Amendment-1-SI.pdf They have switched Evolution Sails 2 and 3 in the SIs, to make it consistent with the NOR, Entry Guide, and Entry Form. Flag colours remain the same. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ex Elly 109 Posted Friday at 01:21 AM Share Posted Friday at 01:21 AM When the course says to round "The Noises", which islands are included? Do we round Maria Island, or just Otata? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon 272 Posted Friday at 04:54 AM Author Share Posted Friday at 04:54 AM Good question for the briefing Course Sheets will be up soon if not already but here’s a sneak peak 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ex Elly 109 Posted Sunday at 11:54 PM Share Posted Sunday at 11:54 PM There appear to be a few rogue entries in Evolution Sails 2 division. NOR states handicap should be less than 0.750. But boats like Prowler, Omega, Bullistic, Favourite and others are well over 0.850! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon 272 Posted Monday at 01:08 AM Author Share Posted Monday at 01:08 AM We are having a meeting tonight so will identify these issues then contact entries over the next few days Plus if you think your in the wrong division or just want to change for any reason, contact Neil or email racing@ssanz.co.nz The system is automated and generates your entry on the data you fill in, we can and do edit all entries as required, however it’s easier to do this once we get most entered 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think the horse has already bolted after they accepted entries for boats well over .750 last year... ie Rouge, Boogie Flash, Favourite and Zealous. My suspicion is SSANZ will split the Evolution Sails Division 2 in half trying to have boats most similar in performance in each half. It's interesting how the shortest course option for most boats is the most popular.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Decision just been made, it’s an open division so won’t be split, if you want to change let us know as per above Next year we may have under 12.5m short course and over 11.5m medium course as this seems clearly to be what’s wanted, but it’s too late to change now that people have entered. Being over popular is a problem that we just need to suffer I guess 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The other reason boats may be entering this division is because no PHRF is required. So to prevent this division becoming overloaded, SSANZ could either: a) require PHRFs for all divisions b) allow boats in longer divisions to use previous/expired PHRFs.

Psyche 332 Posted Monday at 10:56 PM Share Posted Monday at 10:56 PM I'll take a guess that most of the boats only use PHRF for SSANZ, none of the clubs use it for harbour racing. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
markm 23 Posted yesterday at 12:47 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:47 AM Think the Evolution div 1 and 2 wording actually refers back when there was separate 'light' and 'heavy' small boat and wording never got changed when numbers caused the two divisions to merge. From memory, Open came in because of so many boats feeling the need to have a general handicap below 0.75 and the conclusion was it's easiest just to have a separate open division with no limit.

Jon 272 Posted yesterday at 02:47 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 02:47 AM I see there’s a few PHRF applications in with YNZ but these boats haven’t entered yet. Enter now as YNZ have promised to get all these processed by Thursday, you don’t need your cert at time of entry. If you still wish to apply do it today and Mark will work overtime I’m sure, but tomorrow will be cutting it fine Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Using previous/expired PHRF's is definitely not an option! PHRF's are only relevant to each other for a given year. There was a time a few years back YNZ reset/recalibrated basically all PHRF's so numbers prior to this date with have zero relevance Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Boatworks 22 Posted 20 hours ago Share Posted 20 hours ago Jon’s right. As part of the PHRF committee we have a system in place this week to quickly review and process the applications that are coming through, under the watchful eye of Mark. So don’t let that stop you entering the triple series today (Wednesday). Looks like a great fleet for Saturday already. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
