Handicap Chart

Use the chart below to see how your corrected time will compare against your competitors. This chart is based on a one hour finish time. The numbers in the right column show how much time would be subtracted from each boat's actual time to arrive at its corrected time. The ones with negative numbers (in red) get time added to their actual times to arrive at their corrected times.

To figure out how much you have to beat someone by, or they have to beat you by to actually win, calculate the difference between your "adj / hr" (right column) times, then adjust for the actual race time. For instance, if your finish time is about 30 minutes, the margin will be half of that shown on the chart. If it is 40 minutes, it will be two-thirds, etc. To figure it more closely, say on your cell phone's calculator as the race is ending, you can multiply the finish times, in minutes, (don't try to use the seconds unless you want to convert the whole thing to seconds), by the number in the "factor" column. This will get you pretty close to your corrected time. Then you just need to clock the time between your finish horn and the guy you are trying to beat's horn, and see if you made up the difference.
