Rachel S asked:


A Tollycraft 61 Motor Yacht travels at 23.7 knots at full speed. A knot is the same as a nautical mile per hour. A nautical mile is 1.852 kilometers. What is the full speed of the yacht in meters per second?

Obvioulsy, not all the boats can go 20 knots etc etc. But to win the Handicap, would you have to win your division, or is each boat given a different/unique handicap?

How do they determine a boats handicap?
