Sailing scores general
The Sailingscores app will run in your browser and the data will be stored.
After you have entered or select a name for your event, you can fill in the list of competitors. You may also go directly to the heats to enter the finish order.
The number and name of the competitors are stored in an archive, so that the name is automatically filled in later after a (sailing) number has been entered.
A competitors list is not required! This is beneficial for training, because you can immediately start entering the finish order. The list of competitors may still be completed afterwards.
Shortcuts with (sailing) numbers are always shown if there is a competitor list. If there is not (yet) a list of competitors, the shortcuts can only be displayed after the first race has been entered.
Behind the (sail) number in the heat column a penalty can be added such as an o or d (ocs / dsq).
A competitor who has not started will automatically become a ‘dnf’, just as someone who has not finished or is disqualified. The number of points for a ‘dnf’ is equal to the number of competitors plus the number of penalty points (usually 1 point).
The ranking is made according to the low score system, where the points awarded correspond to the finish order. The number of excluded races can be set in the settings. You will find more information in the app.

Sailing scores events
First fill in the competitors list after you choose the event name.
If there are to many competitors to start together, you have to decide to start in smaller groups or make selection groups for Gold and Silver races.
In both cases you need to make start lists, so the competitors know when to start or take a break.
After you’ve select ‘Max.group size’ you can select the number of competitors per start.
The start list will be made and is shown by a tap at the document icon.
Each competitor has one of more times a mandatory break (or is/shall assist the supervisor).
Of course the number of heats needed are more than the number of heats per competitor.
- In case of qualification groups first set ‘max.heats p.p.’ to 4.
- After you’ve select ‘qualifications’, four groups are created: ABCD; each group 4 races, in total 8 heats.
- Tap the document icon to get the start lists and print or share them.
- Two groups sail together in a heat: 1 AB, 2 CD, 3 AC, 4 BD, 5 AD, 6 BC, 7 AB, 8 CD.
- It’s a good idea to set ‘excluded races’ to 1 per 4 races, so the best 3 races determine the rankings.
- The upper half of the ranking will be placed in the Gold group; the others in the Silver group.
- Make the Gold and Silver events using the button with ’two boxes’ above the rankings.
- Two new events are created with the original event name plus Gold or Silver added (internet needed).
- Print the competitors lists and share to start the championships heats.
An extra option (only in the webapp) is the possibility to time a race.
How to activate?
- Set ‘Max.races p.p.’ at 1 to activate the time trial.
- Print or share the start lists.
- Fill in the start time of the group, or tap ‘Enter’ to let fill in de system time of your device.
- At the finish line: tap the shortcut with sail number at the moment of passing the finish line. The system time is entered at that moment.
- Of course you also may enter or edit the finish time yourself.
- The ranking is made by counting the time between start and finish.
May the fastest win!
