I use the display result cells as corrected times for export to a spreadsheet for handicap analysis. One thing that puzzles me: why are the results shown as hh:mm:ss:/laps? With elspsed time the number of laps is impotant, but surely it has no meaning with
corrected time results as the corrcted time allows for the no of laps completed.
This also allows the results officer to check for any errors. Counting laps on the committee boat can sometimes be difficult as well as ‘input digit’ errors.
I find it useful to sort the corrected times by class to check for any differences in laps. Not a fool proof process but has helped me spot errors from time to time, before the results are posted on the notice board
Yes but sailors like to see it has been taken into account
