Thanks again Colin,
Now I know we are out of step with most other clubs and the correct
rules I'll put forward that Welland Yacht Club step into line at the
AGM, in the mean time I can manually correct the results for our
last few regattas.
As you probabably gathered I have just returned to racing after a
fifteen year abscense and the rules have changed a bit! It also came
as a shock to find that a Graduate is no longer PY103!!

Hi Andy,
Yes, you're right it's different; it sounded the same at first.
Sailwave
cannot do what your SIs say. obviously I have to work to the RRS
standards
with common-ish variations - and this is not one of them; although
it sounds
reasonable enough. If N users tell me it's something they want I
can
accommodate it, but it's a tricky situation when it's only one
club that
uses a particular variation; not in that it's hard to implement,
more that
it's difficult to justify the added complexity of another option...
Regards,
Colin J
