To keep it very simple for something like the Mug Race, you would just use the class minimum weight. Almost all FB's are based on a class platform.

It would take someone to step forth and do the calculations and then hand that over to the Rudder Club handicapper....oh ****, never mind.

I think PH is just fine for the Mug Race! grin
