FSMBC Handicaps (NHC1)

Why Handicap

All Handicaps are fundamentally unfair as they aim to encourage slow boats and skippers with limited skills to come racing. There is little that is more discouraging to a crew at the back of the field with the knowledge that there is little they can do but come last in every race. A successful handicap system is one that allows owners with the slowest boats to compete against all boats whilst presenting an achievable challenge to the owners of fast well sorted boats.

Club racing is the best way to get to know your boat and work out what works best. If you have never done club racing before, then please make the effort to join in.
