2008 Roadmaster Series Scoring System

This season we will be using the low-point scoring system. The details are outlined below.

  1. Each yacht's finishing position in each of the 9 roadmaster series events will be added together to make up a total series score.
  2. 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.
  3. The yacht with the lowest point total of all yachts' best 8 scores will be crowned 2008 Roadmaster Champion.
  4. Ties will be broken in accordance with US Sailing Rules.
  5. Yachts not competing (DNC) in an event will be scored as the number of entered yachts plus 5.
  6. Yachts not finishing single race events (DNF) will be scored as the number of finishing yachts plus 1.
  7. 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.
  8. Yachts disqualified (DSQ) from single race events will be scored as the number of entered yachts plus 4.
  9. There is no bonus for competing in all races.
  10. 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.
