Time on Time 25
Time-on-Time scoring is not new. It has been widely used nationally and internationally as a valid method to score handicap yacht racing.
The most well known recent use of Time-on-Time was the PORTSMOUTH Handicap numbers, a predecessor to our own PHRF system, which for many years provided an easily implemented handicap system for local racing.
PHRF-LO currently recommends using the following A & B values
for calculating the Time on Time multiplier.
A= 566.431
B= 401.431
Formula = 566.431/(401.431+TOD)
Scratch Boat = 165 (ToT = 1.000)

History of Time on Time 5
| At the inception of PHRF-Lake Ontario, Time-on-Time scoring was proposed and included in the PHRF-LO Charter. Although Time-on-Time scoring is not new, Lake Ontario was, to the best of our knowledge, the first to implement it through PHRF handicapping. Subsequent to the initial inclusion, Charles Kramer of Sodus Bay Yacht Club, a PHRF-LO Handicapper, completed an analysis and derived the following formula based in part on his interpretation of the published results of the original H. Irving Pratt Ocean Race Handicapping project at M.I.T. This formula was adopted by PHRF-LO in 1985 and represents an improvement over the conversion method that was initially used.
