Scoring System
Unlike other clubs,
Bow Mar scores the skipper... not the boat.
This is because many of us race club boats,
and we almost never in the same boat each weekend.
Likewise, many of our two-handed boats
trade off crew each weekend.
So including the crew in the score does not work.
So we score the skipper of the boat.
That means if you have your eye on a club trophy, you need to take the helm, and skipper often!

The summer series is scored by the
Low Point System
1st place = 1, 2nd place = 2, etc.
A boat that did not start, did not finish,
retired or was disqualified
shall be scored points for the finishing place
one more than the
number of boats entered in the series.
World Sailing Racing Rule of Sailing
2021-2024, p.58
...If you don’t show up for a race day,
your points will be the total no. of boats in your fleet,
PLUS 1.
It pays to show up!
