AHOY !

The 2011/2012 Championship Calendar is issued

(or at least the first half...)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The COA Championship Series is open to COA members only and is decided from the results obtained by eligible boats competing in a selection of races throughout the racing year.

Scoring is based on the Cox-Sprague (1994 modified) scoring system with a default minimum of eight starters in any race using the placing results published by the organizing authority for each race. Where Regatta’s are included the overall results for the Regatta are used as a single result per boat.

Points are weighted according to the type of event. Macau races have a weighting of 1.5, Regatta’s 1.25 and individual races have a weighting of 0.75.
