Grand Prix Finishing

There can be large differences in speed between the most experienced sailors and the least experienced sailors, it is not unusual in a race where the leader completes 3 laps while other boats only complete only 1 lap. To avoid long waiting times for the experienced sailors, and not discourage the less experienced sailors, the Grand Prix finishing system may be used. The aim of the Grand Prix finishing system is to make sure that every sailor who finishes at least one lap will get a score.
