Adam,
I suggest using the hull number when ordering new sails. Doing so seems the general convention for the class for some years. With regard to getting you boat "validated", PHRF certificates are issued by the YRA which do so based on the boat being declared to measure certain things. A second and different thing is getting a Santana 22 Class measurement certificate. That is something I can help you with. I am tied up the next two weekends but am willing to entertain a Saturday or Sunday subsequent to that; it takes about an hour.
Regards,
Michael Andrews

Subject: [Santana 22] sail numbers
Hi folks,
I anticipate having #170 ("Lanikai"), one of the unused tunas on Alameda marina's Santana death row, restored to a race-able condition by late Fall. This includes getting new sails. I suspect this boat probably hasn't raced or been a SODA member for a decade or two. It has number 5170 on the main & spinnaker.
Question is: should I re-use this number when ordering new sails? Or apply (if that's what one does--I'm new to racing) for a new number, or just use the hull number? I'd also like to have the boat be "validated" for participation in PHRF bay races (3 bridge fiasco, e.g.); not sure how to go about doing this nor how it impacts sail number.
Any input appreciated, thanks!
Adam
