TonyMay I suggest we use Google Sheets as a template for next year's RC. It would greatly simplify your scoring.RegardsJohnSent from my T-Mobile 4G LTE Device -------- Original message --------From: Carol Marsh via Cruisingfleet <cruisingfleet@maillist.nyackboatclub.org> Date: 10/14/19 11:49 AM (GMT-05:00) To: "Tony Martin (afmartin@alumni.uchicago.edu)" <afmartin@alumni.uchicago.edu> Cc: "Tony Martin afmartin@alumni.uchicago.edu" <afmartin@mindspring.com>, kisala1@verizon.net, wednightracing@maillist.nyackboatclub.org, cruisingfleet@maillist.nyackboatclub.org, Warren Frerichs <wcfrex@gmail.com>, Osman Kurtulus <osmanckurtulus@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [Cruisingfleet] 2019 NBC Cruising Fleet Series: Last Race and Provisional Season Results Hi Tony,Thanks for all your hard work this season with the scoring. Too bad about the no wind situation on Sun. But at least it was a nice day. Your running commentary was very entertaining. Regards from Scotland —- Carol MarshSent from my iPadOn Oct 13, 2019, at 11:58 PM, Tony Martin afmartin--- via Cruisingfleet <cruisingfleet@maillist.nyackboatclub.org> wrote:Dateline Nyack, Sunday, October 13th, Closing DayThe final PHRF race of the season started promptly at 12:30 p.m. The outcome of today's race(s) would determine the 2019 Cruising Fleet Champ, and which boats would stand on the podium in the both the Fleet Champ and Sunday/Regatta Non-Spinnaker series.  As forecast, the wind died promptly after the start and came up again about 2 hours later..  Competition was fierce among five boats -- Golden Hind (Kisala), Hee Soo (Baumes), Penitmento (Millstein), Sheba (Martin), and The Office (Schlanger).  With a northerly breeze of barely 5 kts at the start, the RC selected Course #1 (B-D).  Within 5 minutes, on board anemometers read 0.5 to 2.5 kts of apparent wind for most of the race.  With an ebbing current and such light wind, anchor lines soon sprouted from the bows of the competitors. After about 90 minutes the wind shifted south, anchors came up, and boats now sprouted whisker poles as they tried to make Mark B.  Shortly after the first (and only) boat rounded Mark B, the fleet hit its 2-hour time limit and the RC abandoned the race.  Right on cue, the wind picked up to about 5 kts again.  Returning boats that had taken over 2 hours to reach (or not reach) Mark B, made it back to Mark D and the NBC mooring field in about 20 minutes.  The sun was shining, the air clean and clear, the fall colors on the shore quite lovely, and we had the Closing Day party, with ample food and drink, starting in an hour -- all in all, a pleasant (if mildly frustrating) end of the season race. RACE RESULTS Sunday, Oct 13: ABANDONED. While still subject to review, below are provisional final standings for the 2019 Cruising Fleet Series.Congratulations to these skippers and crews, and thanks to all the skippers and crews who participated and made for a fine 2019 racing season at Nyack Boat Club. I hope you enjoyed the racing and these racing reports.  I'd welcome any feedback, and suggestions or thoughts  on how we can make PHRF racing at Nyack Boat Club more fun and interesting for you next season. -- Tony Martin, Cruising Fleet Scorer (SCORING DETAILS)Nyack Boat Club 2019 Cruising Fleet       as of10/13/2019Series LeadersFleet ChampWednesday Spinnaker Wednesday Non-SpinnakerSunday & Regatta SpinnakerSunday & Regatta Non-Spinnaker1stThe OfficeHee Soo50/50Hee Soo Zoom2ndShebaThe OfficeSheban/aPentimento3rdHee Soo Imagine MoreMerry Chasen/aSheba _______________________________________________Cruisingfleet mailing listCruisingfleet@maillist.nyackboatclub.orghttp://maillist.nyackboatclub.org/mailman/listinfo/cruisingfleet_maillist.nyackboatclub.org
