* Redress Granted, 2 3rd places awarded for this race

** Redress Granted, score will be equal to the average score of races pre-cut with worst score discarded.

*** Average  of precut races

**** Average of 4 prior races, not to include Race 1


A day full of redress hearings.  The initial jury denied the big request for redress and made the cut at 12 races.  A request to reopen was filed and a second jury was assembled with 2 additional judges.  After prolonged deliberations SI 6.5 was determined to support the inclusion of every competitor's 7th race.

The jury must now hear all pending requests for redress and protests from races 13, 14 & 15.  The cut will be recalculated and posted later tonight.

Racing is scheduled to begin at 10:00am tomorrow.  The RC will determine whether to start with Gold or Silver in the morning.
