Well from my non programmers view point... its a matter of creating more class fields on the registration page and then using them if needed when you score out fleets.
PS: enjoying Carl's posts a lot...
I agree enrolling the US sailing community in a change is difficult
Nevertheless He has worn me out!!!
I am so tired of racing in 3 boat fleets and declaring... Yeah... we have one design or we have a formula class. Now 8 boat fleets are declared major events.
Sigh
Thanks

Subject: RE: [sailwave] Event categories?Hi Colin
Is there any update on the ability to register one sailor/boat into
multiple divisions.Eg. Portsmouth overall, Plus one design class, plus formula class.
assuming that you have collected time of finish.Thanks
