As their final time also remains tied, as they both sailed the same boat, Rule A7 of Appendix A, Scoring, 2021 – 2024 World Sailing Racing Rules of Sailing is used to score this tie:

“If boats are tied at the finishing line or if a handicap or rating system is used and boats have equal corrected times, the points for the place for which the boats have tied and for the place(s) immediately below shall be added together and divided equally. Boats tied for a race prize shall share it or be given equal prizes.“

Therefore, both Moon and Ester receive 6.5 points, as the product for the place for which they have tied and for the place immediately below, 6 and 7, added together and divided equally.

From the left to the right: (in Bandit IFs): boats: Emi, Max & Diana, Rugger, Moon, Julie, Siri, Max & Wyndi, Alex, Kim Committee boat: Daenerys, Tamarushka Pier: Nicole, Elo

The first North Sea Bandit IF Regatta of April took place on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. This time we had a fleet of nine Bandit IFs at the start. Two of the seven Bandit IFs had crew. The North Sea behaved well.

Today the wind came from the west to southwest. The first start would therefore be a bit chaotic and a skipper ended up in a barging trap. However, the continuation of the first race would go well. This was a fast and exciting game.

During the start of the second race, everyone had quickly found their place, making the start less chaotic. A skipper quickly took the lead, but towards the end of the race she was closely followed, which gave us a nice closing phase.

There were no DNFs (Did Not Finish) and no DSQs (Disqualified) through both races and it was another successful and sporty day in The North Sea.

We had two great races. It soon became clear that on the IF a skipper was showing the other skippers how to win a race. With the 22s the races were exciting until the end.

There were three DNFs (Did Not Finish) and one DSQ (Disqualified) through both races and it was another successful and sporty day in The North Sea.

Calm seas, with a large fleet turnout, highlighted this weeks North Sea Open Regatta. The North Sea regions were decently behaved as three DNFs (Did Not Finish) were recorded on the day. One DNF was due to a skipper crashing while crossing over region corners, with another due to a region border crash. The remaining DNF was due to a skipper pulling his boat after having a scheduling conflict arise. The crowds that gathered on the islands in the Ziziphus and Genip regions, as well as along the Poseidon Centre Spectator Pier in the Eden Jakana region, cheered on a great display of fleet racing from this weeks skippers.

This weeks small boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea Copacabana course, was made up of a majority of seven Bandit 22 LTEs. Four Bandit IFs, two The Mesh Shop (TMS) Star Class, one sailing single-handed and one sailing crewed respectively, two TMS Nacra 17s, and one TMS Flying Shadow rounded out this weeks small boat fleet. Meanwhile, the big boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea CCW (Counter-Clockwise) course, was made up of a majority of four TMS I-Mocca 60s.
