How records are handled

Reported first. Verified in the open.

Until result sheets, certificates, photographs or credible coverage are attached, an achievement is shown as a career highlight reported by Peter. No result, ranking or endorsement is invented, and race wins are never confused with overall series championships.

  1. Collect evidence. Result sheets, certificates, photographs and event coverage.
  2. Record the details. Season, event, organiser, venue, class, boat, co-pilot, placing and result type.
  3. Mark verification. Each entry shows its source and status.
  4. Publish the archive. A filterable results table by year, event and class.
