	I think we should scrap the participation points all together. We have already paid a membership to do this.. And we also get points in every race we finish. It would also be possible for new members to rech the top in reasonable time. It would be a more fair system.

	Ranking systems in sailing has been up to discussion many times. It almost always falls back on the standard lowscoring system described in ISAF racing rules. Why not use it? Well tested and described (end of discussion?) and as I see it it will apply very well to SYC ranking system. For example: Use latest 15 races to conform a serie. Winner gets 1 point, 2nd place 2 points aso. You don't count 1 of 5 races. What I like with this system compared to current one: - Sailing IRL is not about winning 5 races of 30. It's about not making big mistakes. - A 5th place is worth the same for every race. It's not my fault the others didn't show up. - You have to participate, but if you miss a race you can still win. - Same system as IRL

	I certainly like your input Wiz, We are not looking at the ranking system at the moment, but when we do a review of it again we will have a good look at the system. I am a ex-admin of SOL who joins in from time to time.

	Something is a bit odd with the ranking, we'll look into it ASAP...

	Well, I couldn't drop it... Here's an example of how it works: http://www.stenum.se/sailonline - Latest 15 races (5 discounted) - I have not included the "Sailplanner-race" and the "Experimental-Venerrace". - All sailors are included now, should be only SYC-members ofcourse. - It says "DNS" (did not start), but can also mean "DNF" (did not finish). - I made a quick rip from sailonline.org result pages so there may be errors (a webservice would be neat!) - And, no, I didn't put in any effort to make it look good... =) --- Last Edited by Niklas Stenum at 2008-06-23 11:43:54 ---

Newport Bermuda Race 2024

The 636-mile biennial Newport Bermuda Race is one of the oldest regularly scheduled ocean races, and with the Fastnet Race and the Sydney to Hobart Race, it is one of the three great classic races of the yachting world. Founded in 1906, this 53rd running of the Bermuda Race can again also be participated in online.
Entries are invited for one of the four divisions:
Double-Handed Division:
Jeanneau Sun Fast 3600
St. David's Lighthouse Division:
Santa Cruz 52
Gibbs Hill Lighthouse Division:
Judel Vrolijk 62
Finisterre Division:
Riptide 50
Details for each yacht are available in the ‘Particulars’ links below. As in real life, you can only sail one boat in one division, so choose your virtual yacht carefully, and because of the unusual (for SOL) 4-division nature of the event, please note results will not count towards any Sailonline rankings.
