If your link returns "ERROR",they did some reorganization on the US Sailing site. PM numbers can now be found under "Offshore"

SLP=Sloop, as in sloop rigged. Sloop can have several meanings, depending on the geographic area & time period. In todays vernacular it commonly refers to a single masted boat, carrying a mainsail & fore sail.
Looking at the Nacra 5.5, you can have a Uni rig,(main sail only), or a sloop rig, main + jib.
