Under then-existing SSS rules, I've been racing in SSS races in my J/105 in a one design configuration without a PHRF certificate for something like 7 or 8 years. I just learned that we've changed the rules so that one design boats are now required to get a PHRF certificate attesting to their rating. It seems like a pretty silly $75 tax which serves no purpose. All of my other racing on the Bay is in the J/105 fleet with no certificate required. Any idea what the rationale was for changing the rule?
