tonyquoll Posted February 10, 2019 Report Share Posted February 10, 2019 At the Wallagoot Lake Boat Club, we have been using a mix of Koonawarra and YV yardsticks. For example: Hobie 14 93 Hobie 14 Turbo 88 Maricat Cat Rig 94 Maricat Cat Rig, Foam hull 92 Maricat Sloop Rig: 2up 94 Maricat Sloop Rig: Foam hull, 2up 92 Maricat Super Sloop:1up +/- trapeze 90 Maricat - Super Sloop + Foam hull 88 Nacra 14 square 85YV Paper Tiger 92 Windrush Cat Rig: 1up 94.5YV Windrush Sloop Rig: 2up 94 Windrush Sloop Rig: 1up 90.5YV Windrush Super Sloop:1up+trapeze 87 YV Weta (1-up) 91YV Weta (2-up) 94YV I was asked "why don't we just use YV, like all the other clubs? Aren't Koonawarra out of date now"? Well because the latest VYC yardstick includes these: Hobie 14 96.5 Hobie 14 Turbo 90.5 Maricat 4.3 Cat 96, +1 for GRP Hulls Maricat 4.3 Sloop 91, +1 for GRP Hulls Maricat 4.3 Super Sloop 89, +1 for GRP Hulls Nacra 14 square 84.5 Paper Tiger 92.5 Windrush 4.3 Cat 94.5 Windrush Sloop Rig: 2up 94 Windrush Sloop Rig: 1up 90.5 Windrush Super Sloop:1up+trapeze 88 Weta 1up: 86 Why have Maricats gained 4 points over PTs? Did they win the Quiddich cup? Who agrees that Nacra 14squares have gotten faster, and PTs slower? Has anyone ever seen a Weta beat all other 14' cats around the course by several minutes? Please advise us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darcy1945 Posted February 11, 2019 Report Share Posted February 11, 2019 Your mix looks spot on to me, it is very close to what I used to use for Mannering Pks 14' cat regatta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
