When a trophy event is run over one, two or three consecutive days, when there are more than two races, a boats worst race score is discarded.  In the event of a tie the boats discarded score is counted.  If there is still a tie the points for the last race are doubled.

Series Scoring

In any series run over a period with non-consecutive days only 55% of the races run count towards the boat's final score, the boats worst score(s) being discarded.  In the event of a tie the boats discarded score is counted.  Example.
