Our manual currently states the following:
Part II, Section 7.2.7.1.a
3) Asymmetrical Spinnaker penalties will be calculated as per 7.2.2 through 7.2.4 and are to be in addition to any symmetrical spinnaker penalties Part II, Section 7.2.7.1.b
3) Penalties will be calculated as per 7.2.1 and are in addition to any asymmetrical spinnaker penalties

They are acknowledging that we should only impose a penalty against the largest of the two spinnakers as only one spinnaker can be flown at a time.

Therefore they have decided by majority vote to accept the following statement:
When a boat is carrying both Asymmetrical and Symmetrical spinnakers and both have penalties, the greater of the two penalties shall be applied to the ASP calculation.

As such the following has been done:
1. Any certificate holder who currently has this configuration and has incurred a penalty for both sails, has had their handicap adjusted/corrected and certificate re-issued.
2. Handicappers with above certificate has been notified in a separate email.
3. All necessary modifications to the handicappers manual.(to be published to the web soon) 4. Revised Handicappers Worksheet has been uploaded to our web site. Version 6e (also includes up-to-date class listings)
