The RYA YTC, powered by the RORC Rating Office, is a new initiative to promote participation

in racing by cruising yachts and cruiser-racers. The objective is to provide a simple rating

assessment so that skippers of any skill level may feel encouraged to race their boats in club

events and port regattas.

​All the BLYC Regattas will be scored using the RYA YTC handicap system and boats that do

not already have a YTC Certificate should apply (available free) right away.  This can be done

using the Application Form on the YTC Home Page, accessible at: https://rorcrating.com/ryaytc

To obtain a list of boats with existing YTC Handicaps please use the link (below) to click through

to the YTC Home Page and, when it opens follow the instructions shown on the right of the

screen for both listing and printing.

It should be noted that NHC numbers will not be updated and will not be used at Regattas.
