Thanks to all at ABYC for their efforts and especially to you Alan for all your help.

Just one small comment, (Not a complaint) but a thought I had from all the complaints I heard about that nightmare issue of handicapping. Why not use Sail Waves Handicapping to ascertain the yachts handicaps for next year?

First race have everyone start the first race with a handicap of 1.00. Second race use the handicap calculated by the program that is calculated for the yachts to win based on the results of the first race. Third race ditto but based on the calculated handicap resulting from race two. Fourth race ditto. And finally use the resultant handicap of the last race to score handicap positions for the last Race.

This would then handicap the Yachts and Skippers in a fair way based on the performance of the crew, yacht and skippers.

What are your thoughts?
