Setting up a Series and Races

All Results are recorded as a Series. A single race event will be a Series with 1 race.

1) Click '+Series' to create a new series.

a) Enter the 'Name' of the series
b) Choose the Scoring system you want to use for the Series (default is Level / Final position)
c) Choose the Result entry mode (this may be determined by the chosen scoring system)
d) If you are using a Scoring system other than Level / Final Position you will have the 2 additional options to select: 'Allow individual start times' and 'Average laps'
e) Check option 'Display results by boat' if a boat might be sailed by different people during series and you want to score the boat rather than the person sailing the boat. The default is to score the person sailing.
f) Check option 'Treat empty results as DNC' if you want to score all entrants or the series regardless or whether they took part in individual races.
g) Check option 'Group Results by Fleet' if you want to score fleets with the same start separately.
h) In the 'Show' section, select what information you want displayed in the Results page.
i) Select whether you want to 'Apply Racing Rules of Sailing A5.3' or leave it as A5.2
j) Enter the max number of discards (you may need to update this value each time you add a race to the series)
k) Enter the number of races that need to be sailed to get a series result (if not treating empty results as DNC)

2) Choose '+Race' to add a Race to a Series.

a) Enter the 'name' of the Race. (If there are several races in the Series, then you can just enter 'Race 1' for example as the Series name will always be displayed in front)
b) Enter the date and time of the start of the Race
c) Unselect the option to 'use scoring setup from series' if you want to score the race in a different way to the others in the series 
d) Enter the weather for the race (optional)
