I think Bram has been using 80 for the DP-N. I'm not sure what he is using
for the other ranges. The Musto has a provisional rating of 80 as well.
You could probably take the same values as the 505 ( 80 82.4 81
79.8 78)
or if you want to pad things a bit, you could use the the I14 numbers
( 85.4 86.9 85.6 84.2 84.1). The numbers are DP-N, BN0-1,
BN2-3, BN4, and
BN5-9 respectively.
That's pretty good information Ron as a world class 505 sailor can give the
Swift a go.
As for the I14 portsmouth numbers, any 80 year old who can keep a new rules
I14 upright half of the time will win any portsmouth regatta with those
numbers. They've not changed since the boat was a single trapeze boat with
35%
less sail area. I'm continually try to shame these guys for sandbagging for
at
least 7 years.
