Hi Martin
Must have seemed rather strange when Colin mentioned that he had pencilled my "room" in ...
Presume you also have zimmer frames for the old & infirm in your country?
I must admit, it does get in the way when I am climbing on to the top of the committee boat cabin to
spot the start line in a Force 5 
Re App D, I run a small university team racing event on a round robin, league basis & have developed
my own Excel start schedules for 5 to 18 teams with 2 flights of boats.
Next Year I am told that the university will be using 3 flights so I will have to get the old grey
matter going again to set up 3 flight schedules.
I am also responsible for the NSSA (Schools) Team Racing Championships where we have 32 teams using
the Wilson Trophy Swiss League system http://www.wksc.net/wilsontrophy/pages/index.asp.
Info for this year's NSSA event will be appearing here during the summer http://nssa.org.uk/
This is an outstanding format where there is one single league, teams race against similar
performing teams & we get in some 250+ races over the weekend!!
Bob McPherson (Sail 100 author) has developed a really great program based on Excel to deal with the
results for this special format.
As we move our event to a different host each year (some of whom don't even know what Team racing
is) I have written a comprehensive event management manual which is available if anyone would like a
copy
Regards
Ralph

Colin and Ralph,
Had to lookup "Zimmer" (I know the German word), but please "pencil" me too on App.D....... I don't
need the zimmer, but "Handicap sailing" ?
Ralph, how do you do D now?
Take care of your families in the mean time, so take the short time first....
"The book" is made up of a main part, and then several appendixes. Would that be a way of doing SW ?
Just a tought....
Regards,
Martin

Hi Ralph,
Thanks for the offer; I have already pencilled you and your Zimmer in
however...
