I guess one additional problem is the lack of adoption of SCHRS in the US; people/organizers/USSA are stuck on the old, [u][b]DEAD[/b][/u] DP-N system where modifiers have no base in reality. [/quote]
Not for lack to trying... I pushed for this a while back with our race series. The issue is the franken-boats but more so many sailors updating to modern sail plans.. If SCHRS wants to succeed there needs to be more education, area referees and measureres, but more important get the sail makers to automatically provide a measurement data sheet that will satisfy what SCHRS is asking for when people get new sails... this seems to be the biggest hurdle.
I had asked one very well known sailmaker for this recently that proclaims to have all sails built with computer aided technology and the request was turned down... how hard would this request be if the information is already there????<!-- editby --><em>Edited by JohnES on Jul 11, 2017 - 11:45 AM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
