Time Handicaps

Since there are not a lot of models out there for handicapping an 18 mile race, we relied upon the USRowing 1K formula and extended it out to 29K (the race distance). Crew age or average crew age will also be calculated according to the USRowing rules.

Only race finish times (entire 18 miles/29 kilometers) will be handicapped.

The following table lists the handicaps, in seconds, for all boats and ages, for this race.

Handicap = {(Age - 27) ^2} * K * D
K = handicap
D = distance, in km
