24. ORC Grand Prix Classes
Part 1 - General
101. It is the intention that the rules and specifications for the ORC Grand Prix Classes provide close
racing without time allowance in grand prix competition and that the yachts designed to this rule
be fast, sound and seaworthy, retaining thereby, with a minimum of modification, good value
beyond their competitive life as grand prix racers.
102. The authority for the rules of the ORC Grand Prix Classes is the Offshore Racing Congress
(ORC) and the rules shall be maintained and administered at ORC discretion.
103. To be eligible for entering in any race or event in which scoring for ORC Grand Prix Class
yachts is provided, an ORC Grand Prix Class yacht shall hold and comply with a valid Class
Certificate.
104. For racing within Class, advertising as provided under ISAF RRS Appendix G, Category C is
allowed.
105. Measurement & Class Certificates. Neither an IMS hull measurement nor an IMS Certificate
is required. However, except where otherwise stated, the measurement prescriptions of the
International Measurement System shall apply as may be appropriate to the particular
measurements specified under these Class rules, including IMS 105 and, in general, provisions
for preparation for measurement, measurement trim condition (but as defined for Grand Prix
Classes in 401 below), freeboard, sail and rig measurement.
All measurements specified by these Class rules shall be recorded by the Measurer and
displayed on the Class Certificate. Except where a change in a measurement value is found to
be within tolerances specified in the Class rule, changes in any of the yacht’s rule dimensions or
ORC GRAND PRIX CLASSES
weights shall require re-measurement accordingly and a new certificate shall be issued. At least
one yacht shall be checked for compliance with certificate weights and freeboards at major
national events and at all international events (see also Part 4, Displacement, Freeboards &
Stability).
A yacht may hold only one valid Class certificate at any time. The number of valid certificates
issued for a single yacht as a result of revisions to the yacht is limited. Within the 12-month
period beginning 1/1/2007, the maximum shall be four such certificates. From 1/1/2008, the
maximum shall be two such certificates within any 12-month period.
Part 2 - General Limits & Exclusions
201. Unless otherwise indicated, specifications below are metric. For the purpose of testing
compliance with specifications, no rounding of measured and calculated values is implied, e.g.,
where a limit is given as maximum 12.5, a measured value of 12.501 would not comply. All
measurement for ORC Grand Prix Class Certificates shall be under the metric system and
certificates in any case shall be issued in metric units. Measurement shall include a written
record of the yacht's compliance with all provisions of the Class Rule not otherwise displayed
on the Class Certificates.
202. Permitted materials -- Hull, Deck & Panels. In the construction of the hull and deck
structures and in interior panels, except for hardware, fastenings and keel support structures,
only the following materials are permitted as listed by Class (see also 209.6, keel construction):
