Race Notes:
Rugger (ruggeromare Resident) was awarded a DNS (Did Not Start) for the small boat portion, as he crossed the startline early and did not circle back around to start properly as alerted both by the startline itself, and race staff. This has been a prescription to North Sea races since their inception in 2014. A sailor crossing the startline early must circle back around, away from the fleet, to start again properly.

Calm seas, with a lighter than usual but still competitive turnout, highlighted this weeks North Sea Open Regatta. With the summer holiday and vacation season in full swing, the Open Regatta saw a lighter than usual turnout of nine small boats and six big boats. Both fleets were still highly competitive as The North Sea regions behaved well for most, with two DNFs (Did Not Finish) recorded on the day. The first DNF, occurring during the small boat portion, was due to a skippers connection failing her. While the second DNF, occurring during the big boat portion, was due to a skipper crashing while crossing over region corners. The crowds that gathered along the shores of the islands in the Ziziphus and Genip regions, as well as along the Poseidon Centre Spectator Pier in the Eden Jakana region, cheered on some spirited fleet racing on display from this weeks skippers.

This weeks small boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea Copacabana course, was made up of a majority of four Bandit IFs, split evenly between two single-handed and two crewed boats respectively. One The Mesh Shop (TMS) Star Class, one Bandit 22 LTE, one TMS Flying Shadow, one ReneMarine Clever, and one Isard Sjogin round out this weeks small boat fleet. Meanwhile, the big boat fleet, sailing on the North Sea Butterfly course, was made up of a majority of four TMS I-Mocca 60s. One WildWind Open 60, and one Trudeau 12 Metre rounded out this weeks big boat fleet.

The choppy seas continued into the big boat portion as four more DNFs were recorded. Two of those DNFs were from crashes on rough region crossings, with the two remaining from skippers pulling their boats after frustration. The crowds that gathered on the Posiedon Centre Spectator Pier, in the Eden Jakana region, and along the shores of the islands in the Genip and Ziziphus regions, cheered on some exciting fleet racing on display from this weeks skippers.

Moon (moonglownight Resident) was disqualified (DSQ) during the big boat portion for finishing the race under protest while failing to complete a 360° penalty turn due to a Rule 18.2 Giving Mark-Room foul, in this instance being the boat clear astern and not giving mark-room.

“18.2 Giving Mark-Room
(b) If boats are overlapped when the first of them reaches the zone, the outside boat at that moment
shall thereafter give the inside boat mark-room. If a boat is clear ahead when she reaches the zone,
the boat clear astern at that moment shall thereafter give her mark-room.“

Red (RedHeadJO Resident) and Cate (Cate Sewell) both finished the small boat portion tied with a final time of 0:12:55. As the final time result is rounded to the nearest whole second in the Google Sheet, the exact final times for each skipper are: (race time multiplied by handicap equaling final time, all time in seconds)

Skipper	Race Time	Handicap	Final Time
RedHeadJO	1336	0.58	774.88
Cate	1007	0.77	775.39

With the final times shown in seconds, the tie breaks in Red’s favor with having a 774.88 seconds finish over Cate’s 775.39 seconds finish. Just to note, if both skippers final times had been an exact tie, Rule A7 of Guidance on Scoring under Appendix A to the Rules of Sailing would be used to break that tie instead:

“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.“

---

Cate and Anthony (Cate Sewell/Anthony) and Zimtzicke (Nicole Myhre) finished tied with 9 points. As they both have duplicate finishes, Rule A8.2 of Guidance on Scoring under Appendix A to the Rules of Sailing is used to break this tie:

“If a tie still remains between two or more boats, they shall be ranked in order of their scores in the last race. Any remaining ties shall be broken by using the tied boats’ scores in the next-to-last race and so on until all ties are broken. These scores shall be used even if some of them are excluded scores.“

Skipper	Race 1	Race 2
Cate Sewell/Anthony	6	3
Nicole Myhre	3	6

In the last race, Cate and Anthony break the tie with Zimtzicke with their third place finish over Zimtzicke’s sixth place finish.

---

Emileigh (Emileigh Starbrook) and Kiki (Kei Frequency) both finished tied with 17 points. Rule A8.1 of Guidance on Scoring under Appendix A to the Rules of Sailing is used to break this tie:

“If there is a series score tie between two or more boats, each boat’s race scores shall be listed in order of best to worst, and at the first point(s) where there is a difference the tie shall be broken in favour of the boat(s) with the best score(s). No excluded scores shall be used.“

Skipper	Best Finish	Next Best Finish
Emileigh Starbrook	7	10
Kei Frequency	8	9

With the race results rearranged in best to worst finish order, per A8.1, the tie breaks in Emileigh’s favor with having a seventh place finish over Kiki’s eighth place finish as her best.

Sea (filax Carter) and Moon (moonglownight Resident) both finished tied with 20 points. Rule A8.1 of Guidance on Scoring under Appendix A to the Rules of Sailing is used to break this tie:

Skipper	Best Finish	Next Best Finish
Montserrat Naidoo	9	14
Maximiliano Szondi	10	13

With the race results rearranged in best to worst finish order, per A8.1, the tie breaks in Amy’s favor with having a ninth place finish over Max’s tenth place finish as his best.

---

Jackson (Jacquimo Resident) and Erika (ErikaTwinkle Resident) both finished tied with 30 points. As they both have the exact same finishes, a DNF (Did Not Finish) during the small boat portion and a DNS (Did Not Start) during the big boat portion respectively, neither Rule A8.1 or Rule A8.2 of Guidance on Scoring under Appendix A to the Rules of Sailing will satisfy breaking their tie. Therefore, Jackson and Erika remain tied in seventeenth place overall.
