Start Lines & Divisions
Series can be configured with multiple start lines and divisions to handle fleets that race together but are scored separately.
Start Lines
A start line represents a group of boats that start together. By default, every series has one start line called "All Competitors".
Why Use Multiple Start Lines?
When your club runs multiple fleets simultaneously - for example, a fast fleet and a slow fleet starting at different times - you can define separate start lines. Each start line can have its own start time recorded independently during the race.
Adding Start Lines
When creating or editing a series: 1. In the start lines section, add a new start line 2. Give it a name (e.g. "Fast Fleet", "Slow Fleet") 3. Repeat for additional start lines
Each race entry is assigned to a start line, and start times are recorded per start line.
Divisions
Divisions allow you to create separate standings within a series. For example, you might have an overall series but also want separate results for "Dinghies" and "Catamarans".
Configuring Divisions
- When creating or editing a series, add divisions in the scoring configuration
- Name each division (e.g. "Monohull", "Multihull")
- When adding race entries, assign each entry to one or more divisions
Standings Mode
Choose how standings are displayed:
| Mode | Description |
