3. Sailing

3.1	We posted the sailing instructions and briefing notes to the website in advance.
3.2.	How good were the briefing notes?[out of 5]
3.3.	How would you improve the briefing notes?

The round robin was based on Swiss League principles which are to provide better quality racing by matching teams of similar abilities. Thus the team that was 1st at the end of sixteen rounds didn't meet, nor was it likely to have met, the team that was 32nd but did meet teams in the top quartile of the results more than once. This phenomenon was prevalent throughout the round robin.

3.4.	How do you mark the system? [out of 5]
3.5.	What improvements would you like to see?

We provide the maximum racing we can by using continuous starting.

3.6.	How do you mark the system?[out of 5]
3.7.	What improvements would you like to see?

Because the computer breaks ties at the end of every round we cannot use the tie-breaker in the rule book as it relies ultimately on “a game of chance”. Instead we have devised one that measures quality of opposition met.

3.8	How do you mark the system?[out of 5]
3.9	What improvements would you like to see?

For all our systems to work together and produce a good event we needed a better-than-ever results service. Our aim was to have the results of a race posted before competitors reached the jetty.

3.10.

How well did we succeed? [out of 5]

Similarly the race schedules had to be posted as soon as they were produced or you would be late for starts.

3.11.	How well did we succeed? [out of 5]
3.12.	If you've marked us down on that, please specify:

The four quarter-finals were sailed together as a unit and then the two semi-finals. This not only gives important racing over the entire course but also, more importantly, means we can add more races to the round robin.

3.13.
