Scorer Instructions

Setting Up the Race Office

Introduction

The first action to take on arriving is to open and set up the Race Office.

Opening the Race Office

1. The key to the Race Office is kept behind the door to the store room in

the Canteen. Its brand is Edmunds.

2. The key to the shutters is kept behind the door to the store room in the

Canteen. The brand is Masters. To prevent the padlock being lost or

stolen refasten it to the latch once the shutter is open.

Checking the Entry Form Boxes

Note: There are three of these boxes. Sailors pay their entry fee for the day by

taking their Boat Entry Form out of the red Boat Entry Form storage box

(arranged alphabetically by owner family name) and placing it in the green

Entry box. Sailors who have not paid a season entry fee should include it with

their entry form.

The boxes also provide a manual list of contact numbers in case of an

emergency. The blue Crew box contains entry details for crew.

1. Check the green Entry box. It should be empty. If it is not return the

forms to the red Boat Entry Form Storage box. File them alphabetically

by owner’s family name. Remove any cash and hand it to Jeannette to

be entered as Race Fees.

3

Preparing the Laptop

Note: The laptop is used by new skippers to enter their boats into the Sailwave

Master Series. It can also be used by anybody wishing to pay membership on

the spot.

1. The laptop is kept in the red pack on top of the Race Management

locker. Take it out and put it on the big wooden table. Plug in the power

and put “How to Enter Your Boat on our Master File” Aide Memoire and

Instructions beside it (Laminated copies are kept in the pack).

2. Turn on the Laptop and go Google. Bring up our membership page.

3. Leaving Google running open Sailwave. Open the Masterfile Series.

Printing Sign On Sheets

Print the Sign On Sheets for todays races (See item 4 in this manual). Pens are

kept in the top drawer of the drawers in the race office.

Forms

Forms (Entry Forms, Crew Registration Forms, Results Sheets etc) are kept in

the stationery cabinet in the South West corner of the office (to the left by the

outside wall looking out window). Each drawer is labelled.

Boat Hire

Prepare the Boat Hire Book. Its the black ring binder kept on top of the

stationery cabinet. Boat hire procedures are documented in the binder.

Scorer Instructions

Preparing to go out Scoring

Introduction

The best way to ensure timely results after racing is to enter and process

results as the boats finish. This document is a checklist to ensure that you have

taken all that is necessary with you.

Action Guide/Equipment Checked

Set up the Laptop See item 5 in this manual

Place it in red clam shell carrier

Place sign-on sheets in carrier

Practice Sailwave Instructions for Club Racing


Open the Series

16. Log on to the laptop computer (User Id = Sailing – Password = Sailing101)

17. Open Sailwave


18. Using the File button and then the Open Series button open the appropriates series


Activity 1 – Confirm Races Setup Correctly

1. If your screen only shows sailed races click on View (top row 2nd left) then Hide unsailed

races.

2. Place your cursor over the column header for the next race (it will have no results) and right

click.

3. Click on edit race.

4. You should get the following screen (Note: The screen for Alternate Course races will only

have two start times). If you do Click on Cancel and go to Activity 2. Otherwise go to step 5.

12

5. If you get a different screen (such as below) you will have to copy this information to today’s

races from the last race sailed. Place your cursor over the column header for the last race for

which results have been entered. You should get a screen like the one under step 4 above.

(If you don’t go to Step 7) Go to the box in the left hand corner of the screen (next to the

Copy starts button) and enter the race numbers of the races that you wish to copy start

information to – thus: 3,4 Push the Copy starts button and then the OK button.

6. Right click on the column header of one of the races you copied start information to and

check that it has copied correctly. Click on the Save button (4th from left 2nd row). Hide

unsailed races and go to Activity 2.

7. The procedure to edit starts follows. Push the Edit button in an edit race screen (above). This

will give you an edit start screen (below).

13

8. Push the Select Competitors button. Use the drop down buttons to select a division (you can

only set up one division at a time). When you have finished click on OK.

9. Back in the Edit Start screen on the “Finishes will be recorded as” line use the drop down list

to select ‘Finish time’1.

10. On the “Start time” line enter the start time (for point score and championship races the

first start is entered as 00:03:00, the second as 00:06:00 and the third as 00:09:00). (Hint:

get the divisions and starts from the Sailing Instructions)

11. Click on OK. You should now have a screen with one line like the screen under step 4 of

Activity 1.

12. Using the new button set up all other divisions.

13. To include this information for the second race of the day enter the race number(s)

(separated by commas) in the “copy starts” box.

14. Click on OK. Then push the Save button (2nd row 4th from left)

Activity 2 – Confirm All Competitors Entered

1. Examine the sign on sheets. Any competitor whose entry is handwritten will need to be

entered into the series.

Note 1: It is the competitor’s responsibility to ensure that their boat is entered into the master list

(see instructions for How to Enter Your Boat on Our Master List- Item 6 in the practice package). No

entry in the master list – no score in the race.

Note 2: Competitors using club boats are identified by name in Sailwave, not sail number. They

should handwrite the sail number of the boat they are using on the day in the sail number column,

but this information should not be entered into Sailwave. (Hint: Club boats include Pacers, Bics,

Spirals, Laser 4.7s, Laser full rig, Hobie 16 and a Maricat 4.3).

Note 3: Members using Club boats must have a separate entry in the Master file for each type of

boat they sail e.g. a member sailing a Pacer one week and a Spiral the next will have 2 entries in the

Master File.

1 As we use yardstick calculation in all our races we must record and use elapsed time. Our printing stopwatch

records the time from the first warning signal. By using the ‘finish time’ function in Sailwave we can enter the time recorded from our printing stopwatch and use Sailwave to calculate the elapsed time. See the instructions for Entering and Processing Results for more information.

14

Note 4: A Pacer sailed with a spinnaker (Pacer) has a yardstick of 127.5. A Pacer sailed without a

spinnaker (Pacer w/o spinnaker) has a yardstick of 130. Where a competitor does not specify they

will be assumed to be sailing with a spinnaker.

2. When a competitor needs to entered into a series select File/Import Competitors from the

within the series.

3. If you are lucky the file you need (Master File 2015-16) will appear in the box. If not the file

path is Windows 7_OS(C:)/Users/Sailing/My Documents/Club Racing 2015-16. Select Next.

4. Search until you find the boat you want. (Hint: the boats appear in the order in which they

were entered into the master file – so boats entered today will be at the bottom. If you are

having problems open the master file and search it.)

5. Select the boat(s) you want and click on Next. (Hint: use the Shift key to select more than

one boat at a time – if you select more than you want click on the ones you don’t want to

deselect them).

6. Click on Next and then Finish.

7. Confirm you have the boats you want. Push the Save button.

8. Once a boat has been entered into a series it is entered in all further races in the series.


To ensure against disaster we now need to get a copy of the data base onto another computer,

which is desktop in the Race Office. Note that Sailwave files on the desktop are backed up to the

YMCA Extranet each week.

1. Ensure that the laptop is turned on and logged on.

2. Turn on the desktop in the Race Office. (User ID Sailing – Password YMCA101)

3. Go to Computer/Network/Results PC

4. The user ID is Sailing – password Sailing101

5. Go to User/My Documents/Sailing/Club Racing 2015-16

6. Copy Masterfile (if this has changed)

7. On the Desktop go to Computer/Users/Sailing/Users/My Documents/?

8. Paste Masterfile (overwrite the existing file)

9. Go to the Laptop (User/My Documents/Sailing/Club Racing 2015-16)

10. Select the appropriate file (Championship – Pointscore – Alternate Course)

11. Copy

12. Paste to Desktop (same directory).

Now you can go racing.
