PHRF NS = Regular racers that don’t want to mess with a chute. CHESS = Single and double handed racers.
CRUISING = Cruisers and others just getting into racing. We’ll even make you a rating if you don’t have one. I would hope a “real racer” would have more integrity than to come and cherry pick a trophy here. “I am so cool, my VOR 70 beat that Catalina that was towing a dinghy” isn’t much bragging rights. The only “racers” that might belong in here would be a skipper that ditched the racing crew and wanted the wife and kids to get to race without being yelled at and scared of being hit.

I know that in some clubs while cruising class is created mostly for lesser experienced crews with less well prepared boats there are some extremely well prepared boats with very experienced racers who enter cruising class to use less crew and less inventory. This cans ometimes create an imbalance I hope you understand the meaning of my question. It is important that inexperienced racers have a great class to encourage new people or less keen people to participate without discouraging them by being clobbered by experienced skippers / boats. These more experienced boats also need to be able to race with reduced inventory and crew. Mike
