The following clause was in the Si's
'Positions will be recorded as boats round the last mark before the finish. Boats that round this mark but fail to finish within the time limit will, unless they subsequently retire, are disqualified or awarded redress, be scored in the order they round this mark with the first of the non-finishers being scored one point more than the last legitimate finisher. This changes rules A4 and A5.'
The finish window was 10 minutes (changed during the regatta to 15 minutes)
This SI worked well in awarding a score for boats that had sailed a large proportion of the course where there may otherwise have been a large number of non finishers. It was very successful in this regard with only one of two boats being scored DNF during the week. This allowed for a better completion at the lower end of the fleet with point scores more accurately reflecting positions on the water.
