v 1.43

Hi,

When I enter RGA for average score, the program moves people down or up in standings for that race. I want to be able to enter an average for a boat with out affecting the actual standings for a race. Can this be done in Sailwave?

Cheers

Hi Jim,

If you look at some of the result details via Edit+Result you should see that Sailwave has not changed any recorded positions as per the RRS - what you’re seeing is the overall position changing; i.e. the overall position based on a ranked set of points. It’s something that the RRS doesn’t clarify very well, but there are in fact two positions for every one-design race; the recorded position and the overall position based on points. When the RRS specify that positions do not change they are referring to the recorded position. I suppose, the overall position is in fact just a reporting issue. Example below.

Recorded results

BoatA - 1st

BoatB - 2nd

BoatC - 3rd

Awarded Points

BoatA - 1.0

BoatB - 2.0

BoatC - 1.5 (Redress)

Final Positions

Boat A - 1st

Boat C - 2nd

Boat B - 3rd

So BoatC for example was 3rd (recorded) but came 2nd )overall).

You can fiddle with the View menu to switch between recorded positions and overall positions.

Is that what you meant…?

Regards,

Colin
