SCHRS is miles above DPN. The US is the only ones not using it. It is THE handicap system for the rest of the world. The problem is not finding people to support SCHRS, it’s finding people to support DPN.

I think in theory SCHRS will be better, but it requires an organization that will continue to support it and to get boats measured/certified. It will be interesting to see some what you discover trying this out. So far I have been reluctant to put the effort into introducing this in our scoring as it comes with a learning curve and effort placed upon the few people still willing to serve at our events.

Information given to me by various sources indicates that the Portsmouth handicap system for us is woefully out of date. Unless something drastic happens, LCYC will be using the SCHRS scoring system for Wurstfest beach cat scoring. Both Sailwave and Regatta Network can handle SCHRS. We’ve always had trouble with Regatta Network when we try to do “race-within-race” scoring when we want to award an “overall" prize. (Call me if you want details). In addition, we’ve found that RN is not too kind to us when we try to change a class from class-legal “one-design” to something else. (We had to use Excel to score the Hobie 16 class at WFII in 2018. RN couldn’t handle us trying to use Portsmouth numbers instead of scratch scoring - one H16 was single-handing. We would have saved a lot of time if we’d just used Excel from the beginning.) I don’t know if Sailwave will be any better, but we’ll see. Anyway, I’ll rescore Wurstfest II 2018 in Sailwave as a test, and in preparation for 2019 Wurstfest. I’ll let you know when it is ready. Will Rottgering is our SCHRS rep. Please contact Will for more info. Here are the current SCHRS ratings: https://schrs.com/ratings.php . I have no idea how the Fleet feels about SCHRS - but IMHO we may start considering going to SCHRS. Not much to it really (so far).
