GENERAL GUIDELINES ON CLUB TCF RATINGS
IF YOUR BOAT HAS A VALID IRC CERTIFICATE
Your boat measurements will be taken from your valid IRC certificate, CLUB TCF will be based on this data. No other allowances will be given until the current IRC certificate expires or is superceded by a new one.
HEADSAIL ALLOWANCE
Headsail allowances will no longer be computed. In order to receive an optimised rating, an official IRC rating must be submitted to the RRD. Based on measurments on the certificate a rating will be derived. This Rating will be valid until one month after the expiry of the submited IRC certificate.
HOW OFTEN CAN I APPLY FOR A RE-RATE
Once every 12 months, exceptions can be made if a signifficant change has been made however this will be at the discretion of the RRD.
PROVISIONAL RATINGS
A Boat will be marked with “PR” when it has received a provisional rating. This would mean that the RRD has not received sufficient information. Provisional ratings are subject to final ratification by the RRD.
The RRD reserves the right to amend ratings and rating structures if and when it deems necessary.
