RELATIONSHIP OF DPN TO PHRF

 

The US SAILING Portsmouth Committee has determined that generally:
A DIFFERENCE OF 1 DPN = A DIFFERENCE OF 6 SECONDS PHRF

Therefore:

    etc.
NOTE: The above table is a guideline that is intended to supplant calculated methods
of determining D-PNs normally found elsewhere in the Portsmouth Yardstick.
  DPN = PHRF / 6 + 55
PHRF = D-PN – 55 x 6

These conversion factors should not be regarded as absolute, and
Race Committees should make adjustments based on their local experience.
