Sailing Competition Area Scoring Regulations

The sailing area is divided into different standard areas. 3 buoys are placed so as to form an equilateral triangle, with the length of each waterway measuring 2-2.5 nautical miles. 

The coring method of each course is as follows: 1st place - 0 points, 2nd place - 3 points, 3rd place 5.7 points, 4th place 8 points, 5th place 10 points, 6th place 11.7 points, 7th place 13 points, with each place following adding one additional point to the score. 

If boats do not sail around the buoys according to the regulations, this is considered an incomplete competition; colliding with the buoys will result in a penalty of sailing 360° around the buoy; colliding with another boat will result in a penalty of a 720° rotation from the original place. The regulations will be implemented in according to the specifics of the actual situation.
