2008 Roadmaster Series Scoring System
This
season we will be using the low-point scoring system. The details are
outlined below.
- Each
yacht's finishing position in each of the 9 roadmaster series events
will be added together to make up a total series score.
- There
will be one throwout for the 9 event series. Highest point event
for each yacht will be automatically discarded. DSQ's, DNS's, DNF's,
DNC's may be thrown out.
- The
yacht with the lowest point total of all yachts' best 8 scores will
be crowned 2008 Roadmaster Champion.
- Ties
will be broken in accordance with US Sailing Rules.
- Yachts
not competing (DNC) in an event will be scored as the number of entered
yachts plus 5.
- Yachts
not finishing single race events (DNF) will be scored as the number
of finishing yachts plus 1.
- Yachts
not starting single race events (DNS) but having entered and been
in the starting area will be scored as the number of entered yachts
plus 3. This is for extenuating circumstances only, i.e. breakdown
or collision prior to start.
- Yachts
disqualified (DSQ) from single race events will be scored as the number
of entered yachts plus 4.
- There
is no bonus for competing in all races.
- Enjoy
your boat, race hard and often.
The
intention of this scoring system is to simplify scoring and make every
event equally important in hopes of attracting more boats to the race
course.
