For qualification 3 or more ladderraces are necessary. Therefore races are offered regularly. During qualification there will be a seperate ladder evaluation to determine the places for the semi-finals. After that the scored points are going to be added to the continuous ladder. (this ladder is all over the year - you will find more information about the Vivarace Fleet Ladder (VRFL) [color=blue]--> here <-- / New sailors are always welcome!)
The races are sailed on the current laddermaps with changing wind forces. It is recommended to have a look on these maps with the editior. So you are able to see possible currents or changing wind strengths. All laddermaps are available --> here <-- for download.
The participation at minimum 3 ladderraces in one month authorizes the participation to the IDM '07. The final ladder places will be adopted for the seeded sailors in the semi-finals.
