Have a look at:
http:/
Only 18 boats classified in the first race.
Only 6 boats classified in the second race.
Only 5 boats classified both in the first and the second races.
All the others show no. 2 DNC and are already out of contention for the top places at the first days.
Most of them drove/flew thousand miles to get to Vestervik!!!
I can't imagine what's happened.
Any idea to explain these
strange
results?
The provisional results published at 13.55 have been just updated.
No more DNCs!
It was only a mistake of the organizers.
I would really like to know how much time elapsed between the first finisher and the last and how long the race was. I am looking for this kind of info on any one design cat race. unfortunately they do not keep times on non portsmouth races. I guess I could get it from mixed races where similar boats raced.
Four Ausies in the top ten!!! <img src=

I think what's happening is that they are scoring and publishing incrementally as boats finish; hence all the DNCs early on.
The results for two more races are up.
Throwing out a bullet? In a fleet of 81?
Wow...now THAT is domination. The future looks bright for Ashby Sails.
How good is he!
What's 'OCS'?
OCS: On Course Side.
You are scored OCS if you are over the starting line when the gun goes and dont go back to start correctly.
Back to back OCS for Stevie....... Thats gotta hurt. <img src=

Thnx Rolf, it's just that I noticed Steve Brewen was OCS on the last two races dropping well down after a good start.
He did it.
Bern,
I expected Steve to come through in the end but given the finishes probably only a 3rd or 4th but really was surprised at the OCS's.
Such is life!

If you don't OCS atleast a start every now and then, then you are not pushing starts hard enough. Stevie is one of the best starters I have seen but now and again you can have a shocker. Bad luck Stevie.
