In 2022, St. Francis Yacht Club adopted the Offshore Racing Congress (ORC) rating rule for handicapping their regattas, including Rolex Big Boat Series. Previously raced under the Offshore Rating Rule (ORR), all boats competing in Rolex Big Boat Series with a handicap will need ORC certification, with the exception of the Classics fleet, which will continue to race under ORR-EZ.
On January 18, 2022, St. Francis Yacht Club hosted a presentation and Q&A session with ORC’s Dobbs Davis to discuss how the rating system works. Presented and recorded via Zoom, a video of the event is available to watch at the link below if you’re interested in learning more about this rating rule.
