    Lu,

    I was thinking more of an adjustment to a PHRF rating. I think the Bermuda race has a separate CN class (which is cool) but if PHRF is adjusted then all sailboats can compete head to head equally.

    That's already done on at least one race, the Marion - Bermuda "cruising" race (more of a casual race for cruising boats than the race it alternates with, the Newport - Bermuda race which is for flat-out racing boats).   Boats that do not use GPS are given a handicap advantage.
