Race Committee Training ORR Measurement Rule
Lou Sandoval CYC LMPHRF Delegate 2001-2007 ORR Measurer (trained 2003) Race to Mackinac Chairman 2012-2013
Why the Offshore Racing Rule (ORR)? ORR LMPHRF Subjective Based on ‘observed performance’ Quasi-quant analysis • Objective • Measurement based • Sum of the parts
What parameters? • Displacement • Hull shape • Center of Gravity (cG) • MWG of largest sail • Sail Area • Righting moment
CYC Applications • Time on Time rating system • Elapsed Time (Secs/mi) • Percent of time sailed • Time differential is based on the time boats are on the water.
