Production or custom boat?
In Response To: PHRF Rating Question ()

If a production boat, I'd enter the manufacturer's listed displacement. No sense confusing the PHRF folks.
If a custom boat, PHRF is trying to concoct a custom number and usually wants the actual 'empty' displacement (with documentation). This is usually a list of parts with their documented weight. Scale certificates for the hull and keel, plus measured weights for the mast, rig, rudder, sails, etc.
