The National Handicap for CruisersEach boat will have a Time Correction Factor (.TCC)
.TCC is applied to a boats elapsed time to calculate their corrected time.
Corrected times are then arranged in order with the shortest first to indicate race positions.
E.g Elapsed time of 1 hr = 3600 seconds .TCC of 0.849Corrected time = 3600 X 0.849 = 3056
