That's an *interesting* option to have in the SIs. If conditions are marginal you might not want to do the practice race to save boat and crew for the main race, but then the practice race can magically turn into the main race *after the finish*. In this case of course it had a big effect on the Sailjuice thing...

Whats the difference to the situation of a week long 10 race nationals where you expect 2 discards early in the week so may throttle back to save boat and crew and then lose a few races later in the week so there is only 1 discard in the end.

It is an interesting twist but it was stated months in advance so all potential entrants knew what the deal was, those that chose to not come on Saturday missed a very enjoyable race.

Personally I think making it a 2 day event with a race each day would be a good thing for the future.
