Most application questions can&#8217;t be skipped.\u00a0 If you can&#8217;t advance to the next page, look for red boxes with missing information which will be needed to move on. Note that all boat, rig and sail measurements need to be in DECIMAL FEET (10.08\u2019 not 10.1&#8242;). There are conversion tables in the Guide and the Application.<\/p>\n<p>Also below is a link to the US Sailing Rigs Dimensions mono hull database where you can find your EXACT boat model and rig dimensions. You can confirm your model by checking the draft or displacement or beam. PLEASE LIST your EXACT MODEL like \u201cHunter 27-3 SD\u201d, not just \u201cHunter 27\u201d, etc., as this will help you get a correct rating.\u00a0 If you can&#8217;t find your boat in the US Sailing database, click on the Sailboatdata.com link for more boats including multi hulls.<\/p>\n<p>There are several places in the application where you can save your form to complete it later.
