FYCA Flag LogoFYCA Handicaps

Follow the links to see the handicaps and performance data for the yachts racing on the Forth. Note that only the active yachts' data is published. Yachts are considered to be actively racing on the Forth if they appear in the results returned to the FYCA by the member clubs within the last 3 year or have recently been allocated a handicap.

Yachts with a "(C)" after the name are club owned. These yachts are expected to be sailed by different crews and therefore do not have a Progressive Handicap calculated. These yachts remain on their base handicap.

Handicaps shown with a trial number (TN) status are provisional. These will be re-assesses and if necessary adjusted by the handicap committee after 6 assessable race results have been provided.

The regular crew number has been provided. This is intended to be used to assess if a yacht complies with Restricted Sail option of racing short handed(see FIG sailing instructions). The crew number has no bearing on yachts racing with spinnakers or yachts racing under the Restricted Sail option for reasons other than short handed crew.

The base rating shown on this page is set by the handicap committee. From this the performance data is used to calculate the FYCA Progressive Handicap as shown in the handicap lists.
