How do you enter the finish time for a race of over one day?
[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
Hi,
Sailwave will handle one midnight transition, but no more then that. As it
stands you need to enter a start time of 0 and then a finish time as an
elapsed time; e.g. 2 days and 4 hours would be 52:00:00.
This need work.

We use it for 3+ day races. We actually enter in the proper start
time and then work out a finish time.
For example, for Phil Coombs' No Fearr on the Melbourne to Hobart,
the start time was 27-Dec-2003 at 12:00:00 and the finish time was 30-
Dec-2003 13:13:24, giving an elapsed of 03:01:13:24 (73:13:24).
For this one, we entered finish time of 3*24 + 13:13:24 = 85:13:24.
This gives the correct elapsed time. If Phil has come in before
12:00:00 on the 30th, we would have just added 2*24 hours to the
actual finish time.
For up to 24 hours, you just use the actual finish time and then, for
each block of 24 hours after the finish time, you add 24 hours to the
actual finish time (in hours).
This is a real pain and, when it is 03:00:00 and you've just been
woken up from a 1 hour kip, the arithmetic is a bummer. What I did
was make up a little card with finish date and time against the hours
to enter in Sailwave. Worked for us.
In reality, there is no point in punching in the actual finish times

at all as the published finish time is in hours and not days. --- In sailwave@yahoogroups.com, "Colin Jenkins" <colin@s...> wrote:
