Just a quick note regarding the rating for Full Tilt, it seems the ECSA handicapper used the wrong base rating for this year's certificate, which increased the non-spin rating from 155 to 158. I only received the certificate two days before the Pierce and didn't have the time to investigate the change.
I've been attempting to contact the handicapper this week to remedy the situation and return the PHRF to the J/30 ODR rating of 155, rather than the standard base J/30 rating. There were no changes to my boat since last year's rating was issued.
I expect to have this cleared up in the immediate future, and I sent an email to our Fleet Captain explaining the discrepancy and asking that the results of the Pierce Invt. be recalculated based on the ODR rating.
We now return to our regularly scheduled programming.

Follow up on the previous post: ECSA has found the error and changed the PHRF for Full Tilt back to what it should have been, 135 spin/155 non-spin.
This has no effect on the final standing of the Pierce, except to decrease the margin from four minutes to roughly three minutes.
