Notes												Open Handicap Winners
The handicap ratings are generated from the Travellers and Nationals results and shouldn't be taken at all seriously!!
												Burton			James Daniels
A handicap score, not shown above, is calculated for each open attended.												Oxford			Nick Curry
It's a proportion of finishing position to number of entries expressed in terms of a 1000.												Hayling			Simon Mussell
Score = 1000 / No of entries x (Position - 0.5).												Yorkshire Dales			Mick Pullin
So if 1000 boats compete, each will have their finishing position minus 0.5 as the score												Poole			Duncan Ward
If 10 compete the winner will score 50. Second will be 150. 3rd 250, up to 10th at 950.												Hythe & Saltwood			Dan Hollands
If 50 compete the winner will score 10. Second will be 30. 3rd 50 up to 50th who will be 990.												Shoreham			Peter Snowdon
Therefore the better the result and the bigger the fleet then the lower the score for the open.												Weston			Carl Tagoe
Then 10 points are deducted from the score for each helm beaten with a better, lower, handicap before the open.												Lee-on-Solent			Carl Tagoe
												Castle Cove			Rob Smith
The score is then used to calculate the handicap after an open.												Rutland			Simon Dodds
The current rating is calculated by:-
If the score for a meeting is less than the previous rating i.e. they have performed better than their previous rating,												Most Improved			Peter Snowdon
then half the difference between previous rating and the score is subtracted.												Highest Newcomer			Jon Powell
If the score is worse than the previous rating i.e. performed worse than their previous rating, then quarter of the
difference between previous rating and the score is added to the rating.
Therefore the rating can go up quicker than down.
There's also allowances made for not completing a meeting or having no finishes at all.
The sailor with the largest negative change is the handicap winner for the open.
Anyone with no results in the year gets archived off. If they reappear they continue from their last rating.
