sadler 290

[Birdseye]

have bought one and since I like a bit of club NHC racing I wonder if anyone has come across any handicap data for the boat, or has seen one racing somewhere I can follow up. Nothing on the RYA site or Byron

for those who arent familiar with it, its a competely different boat to the sadler 29

If you search for it on here:
The Clyde Yacht Clubs Association (cyca-online.org.uk)
If the link doesn't work use The Clyde Yacht Clubs Association (cyca-online.org.uk) and select Handicaps & Sail Numbers - top right
You can use the search and see yachts of a similar performance.

Some adjacent boats from the CYCA data:
Albin Express
MG C 27
Hydro 28
Nicholson 303
Moody S31
Westerly Fulmar
Jeanneau Attalia

Seems about right to me.

Page Habeby of this parish. For something that looks like a bathtub, it's damn fast!

You could try Kwik Decision of this parish too - another 290 owner but I don't know if he races.

Some have done the RTI over the years. If you download the results spreadsheets you should be able to see ratings etc.

Thanks,

Is there any way of getting beyond the first 4 pages on the List of Boats by Class?

There are two that race not so very far from
you - one in Barry and one in Porlock Weir!
I will try and get Byron numbers for you

Thanks but Byron certainly doesnt have the boat in his list. I wouldnt be that confident in his number anyway - after winning a series by too much of a margin, I checked on my handicap with him and found he had the wrong data for my boat. After correcting the number I dropped back to my normal position! My crew thought I was an idiot but I was happy to be an honest idiot.

Thanks. Found one in 2012 divission 8a and 0.919 How do these ISC numbers relate to IRC or NHC ?

Anyway, it gives me an idea of where I should be over the line in our fleet

ISC numbers are higher than IRC in my experience - a 34 footer I sail on was 0.995 ISC and 0.926 when rated for IRC the following year.

Marchwood YC seem to have had a 290 in the ranks, this was their initial thinking:

At least you can seen the comparisons and you may be able to root in their results to check how Cariad got on.
