[sailwave] Individual Handicaps

Hi Colin, that sounds like the easiest way to start it and we will all be able to suggest tweaks from there. For our PH system the competitors must sail the same configuration or it is classed as a seperate entry for that series anyway. It can be fun trying to keep track of all the differing configs but it seems to work so far.

One quick question tho will the PH be based on the current Ewins etc or the RYA's YR2 maths setup?

Keep up the great work on Sailwave Colin it's much appreciated at this end.

  Cris and anybody that wants PH facilities,
  
  PH is by far the most common request for dev at the moment - and anyway Rob
  flipped a coin and decided it would be next, so it will be done immediately
  after 1.58 has been released, which should be by the end of October. So I
  estimate by the end of November. However I cannot commit to these estimates
  because Sailwave is a hobby and I only get to do it in 'spare' time... If
  work gets mad or I have unexpected family commitments, Sailwave it the first
  thing to 'suffer'.
  
  There is one huge problem with PH - which is that everybody does it
  differently - also some clubs allow competitrors to change
  boats/configurations during a series, which really thows a spanner in the
  works.
  
  What if we simplified for step 1 - each competiutor sails the same
  boat/configuration with the same default rating for the duration of a
  Sailwave series... Would that affect anybody that wants the PH tools...?

Hi Trevor,

See reply to Wayne re: proposed quick tweak. But in general that's the
problem - everybody does it differently...
