Is there an easy way in Sailwave to calculate a personal handicap type result alongside the normal low point scoring PY system?

If it doesn't break it's too heavy; if it does it wasn't built right

Depensds exactly what you want to do, but if you already have the handicaps then you use the alias feature... Each competitor has an aliaswith the different handicap, and the aliases are in a different fleet in the fleet column. You then use "score fleets separately" and it works just fine.

Thanks I will give that a try, the aim is to get a best improver for each series

Jim,
 
Could you expand on this alias feature? Can't find it in the Help file.
