Elapsed Time Scoring

Our club has historically timed races using stop watches. The procedure we
have used is multiple stop watches are started simultaneously with the first
flag of the starting sequence. The first start is then at 5 minutes, the
second at 10, etc. This time must be subtracted from the time that is
recorded on the scoring sheets to obtain the elapsed time for Portsmouth
scoring. Is there any way that I can input a delta that is to be subtracted
from the raw elapsed time data for each fleet? This would be similar to
inputting a different time of day for each fleet in the time of day option.

Wouldnt you enter this as a start time for each race?
I think colin added stuff so you could have a different start time for each
fleet if you have multiple fleets in one file.
