I have just completed the results for a series in which the first and
second placed boats both have nett 3 points after 3 races sailed.
However I am confused as the 1st placed boat has a total of 12 before
discard (9DNC,1,2), whereas the second placed boat has 6 before
discard (1,2,3). Are these final results right? Any ideas please, or
am I missing something obvious here!
Thanks in anticipation.
With one discard after 3 races, both boats score a 1st and a 2nd, total of 3 points each. Sailwave breaks this tie in terms of App A 8.2. Discards are not included in tie breaking.
We don’t normally allow a discard after so few races (usually after 5 races).

Thanks for that Malcolm, all a bit clearer now, you've probably
guessed I'm new to this scoring lark.
Best regards,
