Once the handicaps are developed [in sailing races,] they can be used in any race to give each boat a "corrected" finishing time. The corrected time is simply the elapsed finishing time multiplied by the handicap factor (a boat with a handicap of 95% that actually sailed a course in 65 minutes would be given a corrected time of 61.75 minutes.) Once all boats have a corrected time for a race, the corrected times are sorted in order and places are awarded based on corrected times. 4, record 1, English, - adjusted%20time
