This recognition, which was finalised during the 2003 ISAF November Conference has been asked for by many of the ISAF Member National Authorities who have local racing without a national rating office, and who want certificates that can be accessed, cheaply and electronically from a central source.

To apply for an IRC rating you need to complete the application form, which can be obtained by:

- Phone or write to RORC for an application form on:
Royal Ocean Racing Club Rating Office
Seahorse Building
Bath Road
Lymington
Hampshire
SO41 3SE
Great Britain
Tel: +44 1590 677030
Fax: +44 1590 679478
E-mail: info@rorcrating.com
Website address: www.rorcrating.com

- If you are using Microsoft Excel you can download an Excel based application form, or

- Print out the Application Form (PDF file) which you can then fax or post to the rating office with your payment.

If you have a one-design, you may be able to use a simplified form. Check the list of eligible designs

You should allow time for the application to be processed, as applications can take as long as 3 or 4 weeks during January - August
