  6. National Handicap For Cruisers (NHC)

  7. The National Handicap for Cruisers • NHC replaces PY for Cruisers. • Recognises that no 2 cruisers are the same. • Different sail plan • Different props • Different Weights • Different crew abilities • Different number of bunks • Air Conditioning etcetc • NHC is a performance based handicap system.

  8. The National Handicap for Cruisers • Each boat will have a Time Correction Factor (.TCC) • .TCC is applied to a boats elapsed time to calculate their corrected time. • Corrected times are then arranged in order with the shortest first to indicate race positions. • E.g Elapsed time of 1 hr = 3600 seconds .TCC of 0.849 • Corrected time = 3600 X 0.849 = 3056

  9. The National Handicap for Cruisers • The RYA have published a base list of .TCC’s using a simple measurement formula. • Full list of base .TCC’s for the NHC can be found at • http://www.rya.org.uk/racing/Pages/NHC.aspx • Examples: Bolero 0.849 Twister 0.807 Soling 0.858 Nic 32 0.858

  10. The National Handicap for Cruisers • All boats will start a series on their base .TCC called their Base No. • Base No. will be adjusted after each race. • Each boat starts the next series with their adjusted .TCC from the previous series • http://www.rya.org.uk/racing/Pages/NHC.aspx
