Hi
I have looked through the posts and cant find the solution
I want to enter the results for a race that started at 16.05.00 on Friday and with boats finished on Sunday night Monday morning
Do I calculate the elapsed time and use that or is there a way of entering the finish time (this would be easier for me - if possible)
Thanks in advance of your assistance

What Is The Format For Start/Finish Times?
Start and finish times can be entered in one of these formats:-
hhmmss hhmm hour:minute:second hour:minute
When using a separator like ‘:’, spaces and alphabetic characters are ignored. While the above formats use ‘:’ as a separator, you can use any from the following list:-
: - / . ;
ABYC Sailwave Users Guide Page 69 of 86
Each component must represent an integer, decimal value are not allowed. There is no range limit on each of the component values; for example the minutes component is not limited to a maximum value of 59 (or 60). You can use leading zeros, but they are not mandatory.
When using the non-separator forms, leading zeros may be required because you must enter exactly 4 or 6 digits.
These examples all represent the same start time of 1030:-
103000 1030 10:30:00 10:30 10/30 10hr:30min 10h ; 30m 10 h . 30 m
If a finish time is before its corresponding start time, Sailwave assumes that there is one midnight boundary in-between the pair. In version 1.53 and later, you can also explicitly include a date with a time. The combined date-time format required is:-
dd/mm/yy@time
Where time is a start or finish time formatted as described above. dd is a one or two digit number representing the day of the month. mm is a one or two digit number representing the month and yy is a two digit number representing the year. Spaces before or after the @ are ignored. Examples:-
24/12/04@10:30 1/1/05@10:30 01/01/05@10:30 1/1/05 @ 10:30
Hope this help,
Willi.

Hi Stephen,
You can enter a date in the start time of the race e.g. 10/06/2013@01:02:04
then when you enter the finish time also enter the date 12:/06/2013@02:45:00
and you can see the elapsed time is calculated and displayed as 2:1:42:56
i.e. 2 days 1 hr 42 Min 56 secs
Hope this helps
Jon
