What is the average or indeed exact weight of a 6m in racing trim ex crew? Is there a minimum in the rule? Just curious, really
Displacement in cubic metres shall be not less than (0.2 L.W.L. (in metres) + 0.15)3
If a yacht is less than the displacement required by the rule for her length on L.W.L. then the
difference between the length on the L.W.L. to which her actual displacement corresponds by the rule
and the actual length on L.W.L. shall be doubled and added to the length measurement.
To enable the displacement to be determined by weighing, yachts laid down after 31st December
1978 shall be provided with lifting eyes, the construction, size and attachment to the hull of which shall
be approved by the appropriate classification society. For boats first certified after 1st June 2007 the
classification society is replaced by the structural consultant as defined in 26.1.
