Because rule 44.3 says everyone else keeps their same position.

That'll be why there was no race 3 trophy awarded, then. Couldn't work it out at the time. Dave & Richard used to sail together, but a while ago now...
Why wasn't everyone down to 22nd promoted one place? |

Doh! Sorry, I should have known that. Aren't Dave and Richard an old Fireball pairing? |

Nope it was Dave Wade and Tim Saunders. They screwed up the start and had to do a penalty but only did half the 720. As a result they were protested, knowing htey were going to loose they took the option of arbitration and suffered a scoring penalty.
Pretty daft mistake to make at the worlds! |

Yes, it was Dave Wade and Richard Wagstaff - there's a discussion on it on the final day report - click here.

Sailwave lists SCP as "Scoring Penalty under rule 44.3" Points for place + number of places in SIs or 20% of boats in the series if not specified in the SIs. Possible Z flag violation perhaps? (rule 30.2)

Near miss there, you could have been just one click away from something very unsavoury! Sorry no idea what it means, await a definitive answer with interest. Is there anyone here that actually sailed the event (lucky B*%)+#?£$) who might know? |

I was looking through the results of the Fireball worlds and couldn't see a race winner for race 3. There was one entry, David Wade, who scored 22 points and was marked SCP. Was he the race winner? What does SCP mean? I tried the internet but got the Society of Catholic Priests, and I'm pretty sure that is not what it means.
