    Hi All,

    I have it in my head now that I would like to complete my Yachtmaster in the next year or two so I would like to start logging my mileage/hours accordingly. I know I can log cruises and day passages as I know the exact distance etc., but when it comes to racing should I be logging the hours? I Know it will be tough to gauge the distance covered but the hours can add up quite quickly.

    Thanks for the advise,

    Pete

    Round the cans racing doesn't count. Needs to be point to point passages, be they races, cruises or deliveries.

    Thought as much Heidi but was just looking for confirmation as although the distances might not be huge, there is alot of hours built up over the year on can racing. its a shame to loose out on them. they wont affect me too much though but didnt want to go through the hassel of logging my old races..

    Thanks
