Eric,

Given the true sail measurements, what would the PHRF rating on the P-19 be?
I seem to recall that LP is one of the factors that is considered, but I'm not
at all sure. And aren't the numbers adjested for local typical wind
condition? What are the other factors and what is the formula? Can you point
me in the directions of a web site with info?
