I got word that LMPHRF is going to look at the base PHRF rating next month. The base rating on Lake Michigan 144 (J+1 pole and 155% jib). The ODR is 138.
I don't know why they want to mess with an old boat, but I believe it is a political ploy out of Waukegan Yacht Club since I am vice Commodore of a competing Yacht Club. I raced one regatta there lest year and won two races, but placed third overall. Since then I have heard from my PHRF rep and the WYC PHRF rep that I am being looked at and that all J30 on Lake Michigan are being looked at. Every boat I have sailed in the last ten years a WYC rep has appealed to PHRF with no changes.
