| Shields Fleet 1 Scoring for 2006: | |
| Scoring: | The Cox-Sprague scoring system as shown in the One Design Championship Rules section of the YRA Year Book is recommended; however,each fl eet may choose any scoring system. A TLE is scored by adding 50% of the difference between the number of fi nishers and starters (truncated if a fraction) to the number of fi nishers. |
| Shields Fleet One uses the Cox-Sprague system with the table given in the CS_Table tab of this workbook. This table differs from the YRA Year book table in the score assigned to the boat that finishes second in a two boat race, the scores assigned to boats that finish 21st or higher and the boats that are disqualified or do not finish. | |

| Discussion on Scoring from the Fleet One 2006 Spring Fleet Meeting: | |
| NOOD: | |
| whether the NOOD results should be included in the standings for the | |
| season, whether there should be a subsidy, and whether the regatta | |
| will be the Corny Shields Memorial Regatta. | |
| It was resolved that the NOOD results will be included in the | |
| standings, but unless it is totally unworkable from a scoring | |
| perspective, those not participating will not be penalized when | |
| being evaluated for any sort of qualification. Our Scorer, Witold | |
| has confirmed that scoring in this manner is achievable. | |
| The Fleet agreed to a $100 subsidy for any Shields participant in | |
| the NOOD. | |
| The regatta will also continue to be the Corny Shields Memorial | |
| Regatta. | |
| It was agreed that those boats participating in the BBR will receive | |
| a race credit in the same way a boat participating in the Nationals | |
| would receive a race credit. | |
| It was determined that the following regattas will be included in | |
| the Polly Ann Trophy: Memorial Day, Independence Day, Race Week, YRA | |
| One Design and Columbus Day. Vic Onet, the donor of this award that | |
| is named after his two daughters, has agreed the changes. | |
