[sailwave] Size Limits

Keith,
There are a couple of things you could do:
1. Identify them as a separate division
2. Publish one set of results with them included in the regular division,
then change the division to a special one and republish - a lot of trouble,
but a way to show them both ways. Our club's weekly races are scored as
Division results and as Overall results, which is dead easy.
Regards,
Malcolm

Ah, Aparently I underestimated the number of entries somewhat...

It would actually be arounf 350 boats...

Cheers

HI Folks,

I'm very new to using sailwave and have just been asked to look into the
best option for our town regatta. I have one main question.... Id there any
practical size limit for sailwave? Our regatta will have IRO 180 boats in 26
classes racing twice a day for 5 days.

I have found nothing in my 'playing' with the program to indicate that this
would be a problem but would like to check.... ;o)

We will be running 3 committee boats and was planning to have 1 person
ashore working with each one, would they all be able to edit a single
sailwave file at the same time (I doubt that very much) or would we be
better using aseperate file for each committee boat and publishing from
there (or merging files for publication, maybe)?

Thanks in advance.

Keith

Hi Malcolm,

Yes, that would make sense.

I agree with John and Richard that you can't really make allowances, and
ideally we would not have single day entries. Equally it's no different to
having two classes that cross or are racing the same course.

We were considering running a separate file for each of the 26 classes, that
would make this a fairly easy job by just setting up a duplicate file for
the class if there was a single day entry for that class, but again, that's
a lot of extra work...

Cheers

Keith
