Trophies
Rules - 2010
In addition to the CBYRA
High Point awards, CMA has two perpetual trophies, as listed
below.
The
Past Commodores' Elapsed Time Trophy is to be awarded to the
skipper achieving the best elapsed time performance during the
season. Points are
awarded on the same basis as for the CBYRA high point scoring but
for elapsed time instead of corrected time.
Scoring in at least 7 CMA sanctioned races (not just the
CBYRA races) is required to qualify.
Races may be dropped as below:

The
Past Commodores' Long Distance Trophy
is to be awarded to the skipper achieving the best corrected
time performance during the season in the longer point-to-point
races. Points are
awarded on the same basis as the CBYRA High Point Series. All CMA
sanctioned races with a NOR indicating a length of 20 miles or
longer will be eligible for consideration.
The six longest of these with an actual course length of 20
miles or longer will be scored.
Race length will be determined by that reported on the
Official Results Page of the race. An individual competitor’s
best four results out of these six races will count.
If fewer than 6 races are 20 miles or longer, then the number
of races will be appropriately decreased.
The eligible races will be determined by the Fleet Captain at
the end of the season based upon the actual length of the races.
The number of awards for the above
trophies will be determined as below:

Each competitor is to be awarded no
more than one CMA Past Commodores' Award trophy for the
season.
If, based on the raw score calculations, one or more
competitor(s) are eligible for more than one trophy, the
competitor(s) will choose which they wish to receive in rank order
of the raw trophy award standings.
