VARC Div 7 2010 Scoring

• We are using the traditional "low point" scoring
• winner gets 1 pt, second place gets 2 etc;
• DNF = Div 7 boats racing on the day + 1;
• DNC = Div 7 boats racing on the day + 2
• Two-day races count double: Each day's results are considered a separate race towards the Championship.
  This gives us a total of 8 "scoring days"
• Three drops
