Similar to the History section of this web site, the Technical Info section is temporarily lacking in content. The reason is that I alone do not have enough information to complete this page. I only know the following:

Any information you have would be greatly appreciated on this Web site, email me.

D-PN reffers to the portsmouth number of sailboat, as described by ussailing.org:


The North American Portsmouth Yardstick is a widely used method of rating boats of different classes sailing the same courses. It is a time on time handicapping system and is derived from actual records of classes of boats with thoroughly documented ratings. Portsmouth Numbers are defined as the length of time boats would take to sail a common but unspecified distance. For example, the distance a boat rated at 80 could cover in 80 minutes should be able to be covered in the same race in 95 minutes by a boat rated at 95. In deriving the numbers, boats have in almost all documented cases sailed on courses including the three basic sailing angles: beating, reaching and running. The numbers provide a direct comparison of the performance of different classes.
