Larry, could you send me a copy of your phrf cert?  West Florida denied me one.

Dave, would it be possible to send me a copy of the phrf certificate?  Does it include a requirement to carry an outboard?

Thanks,
Bob

West Florida PHRF rules require an engine, no exceptions. 

Anybody else sailing phrf with or w/o an engine, and if so what rating?

Sailing in PHRF and being protested for not having a motor.  Anybody else had this happen?  Hate to hang 30 lbs. off the back of the boat.

Thanks,
Bob
#135
Tampa

Tried to register for the 3rd Sarasota Sailing Squadron regatta this weekend and cannot find any info on their website.  Safe to presume the same schedule as last event with the Skippers meeting Friday at 10:00 and 1st start at 11:00?

Nice promotional video of the VX on Sailing Arnarchy - Forums - Sport Boats - "What happened to the VX?" - go to the last post and scroll up.

Question for those of you that have a PHRF rating certificate.  Went to the West Florida PHRF website and the application has a required field for motor that must be filed in order to complete the form.  How did you get around this, or did you purchase a motor & bracket and sail with a motor hanging off the back?  I hope not.

Thanks,

Recently purchased #135 but both my 1st and 2nd choices for crew cannot commit to those dates.  In case I cannot get a commitment by 11/16 is anybody looking for crew?  I live in Tampa.

I have to agree!  Finally got the boat rigged and in the water and went for a sail and the boom sheeting wasn't as bad as I remember from the first time I sailed a VX in January. 

Those of you that have installed the mainsheet cleat - where exactly did you locate it, and how did you fasten it?

Thanks,
Bob
