Typhoon racing

This is my first season with a Typhoon weekender, & will be
teaching grandkids to sail. We will be racing in a Wednesday
night racing series at a local yacht club. My question is: does
the Typhoon weekender have a PHRF, or a Portsmouth rating?
Thanks for any info. Jack

I recently bought a Typhoon weekender - to teach my granddaughters to sail. At this time I have two basic questions -
Is a 5 HP long shaft ( 20" ) adequate ? What is the best angle
of heel ( for comfort & speed)? I am open to all suggestions.
