Harold, The issue, IMHO, is the low-point scoring system and I would suggest moving to high point or cox-sprague. With high point, a boat who beat more boats would get a higher score -- then the boat with the highest score overall will win the overall award. Again, this may not be the fastest

Older C&C's with the "stick built" interiors have wood beam supports under the sole. Calypso's squeak and creak as the fasteners loosen and wear out the joints. I have used many of the squeak reduction tactics but am resigned to the major project of renewing the supports in the heavy traffic ar

I like rewarding the winner of the most competitive class. Use the differences of scores of the top 3 boats in each class. Or use the difference in times of the top 3 in each class. Winner of the tightest class is overall winner. This will usually eliminate rewarding a strong boat in a weak c

Our club is an informal racing group with some social events thrown in. We don’t have a clubhouse and use volunteer racers as committee boats. We have a wide variety of boats in our fleet with PHRF’s from 50 to 250 most years. This makes scoring a real challenge. For many years, we have used

Would like to ask the list about scoring. In a fleet the winner of a series is the low point boat based on corrected times for each race. We have three fleets who compete for an overall trophy. The winner has been determined by the lowest overall time for the race series. Each fleet sails the sa

When I redid our floorboards, I gave the top edge of the beams a single layer of electrical vinyl tape to add a little cushion between the epoxy coating on the boards and the fiberglass beams. I know they are called "floors" but it's confusing. Chuck Resolute 1990 C&C 34R Atlantic City, NJ

I'm only guessing here but When I tried to take up the floor on my 121 I was surprised to find that Tartan had put a line of caulk on every beam. It made taking the floor up a disaster as the silicone acted as an adhesive. On the other hand, I don't recall ever hearing the floorboards squ
