This table shows the Handicap Numbers in use at HLSTC from April 2025, together with the changes from the 2024 numbers.
The RYA usually updates its database every year, and we then review our figures, making adjustments as appropriate. Our current figures are in line with the RYA's 2025 base figures for most classes, but as usual, we have adjusted faster boats upwards to reflect local conditions (to approximately half way between the RYA's figure and 1000). Where RYA figures are not available, we have used the best information available from other sources.
