SW calculations not correcting for 5 min time between starts

Imported from Yahoo
1

We found this past weekend that Sailwave 2.19.8 was not taking into account the 5 minutes between each start in a TOT regatta with 3 PHRF class starts.

We properly entered the 5 minute time differences between starts.

All the TOT calculations agree with a full-up Excel second opinion, except that they are 10 minutes and 5 minutes off (longer) for the first and second of the three starts respectively.

Has anyone experienced a similar anomaly? Was there a fix or resolution?

Thank you in advance.

Respectfully,

Rob

Hi Rob,

  If you would like to send me the Sailwave file I will take a look

and see if I can determine the problem.

Kind regards,

Huw

Enclosed is the print-out of the Sailwave results (.pdf) and the Excel Worksheet (tabs are for each of the two races).

Note: Class PHRF C Race #1 was thrown out due to that fleet rounding the incorrect mark.

Thank you for your help!

Hi Rob,

  Thanks for the files. I will take a look in the morning here in

the UK. To help me though could you please send me the actual
Sailwave file used to generate the results as I need to look at
how it is set-up.

Kind regards,

Huw
