Technical information
The files are in DBF format, which is used because it includes column headings and can be opened readily by most versions of Excel. They have been given the .xls extension so that they will open automatically in Excel if double clicked.
They can be imported into any other application (database) that can read dbf files. It may be necessary to change the extension to faciliate the process.
If you require any further assistance, please



Provisional handicapping
Any newly registered yacht, or one which has undergone substantial modifications or has not completed three or more acceptable races in the preceding season, will be allocated a provisional handicap. This handicap can however be ratified once at least three qualifying races have been completed (subject to timing of committee meetings). The minimum requirements of an acceptable race are that:
o It is a River Cruiser Class race
o It is organised under a club flag
o At least two other finishers have ratified RCC handicaps.
For a handicap to be ratified, these results must obviously be made available to the RCC committee and responsibility for this rests with owners. The committee should receive results from all Sabrina and Snowbird Trophy events. If your qualifying races are not included in these, you should ensure that a copy of the results (which must include times for all finishers) is e-mailed to or sent to the Hon Registrar at the address in the Green Book.
