How many discards were used ?

Because when I added the placings for the first 5 boats I find :

F16 Olsen 14
F18 Nigel 23
F16 Jody 22
Nacra 20 (solo) Trey 48
F18 Lennard 51

After discarding one race we have a tie at 14 points between Nigel and Jody. And the tie remains even when discarding 2 more races. Which begs the question what type of tie breaker was used.

...

(update)

Googling the ISAF regulations :

If there is a series score tie between two or more boats, each boat’s
race scores shall be listed in order of best to worst, and at the first
point(s) where there is a difference the tie shall be broken in favour of
the boat(s) with the best score(s). No excluded scores shall be used.

That means :

Nigel 1 2 2 3 3 3 (9) = tot. 23
Jody 2 2 2 2 3 3 (8) = tot. 22

Which would lay the tie in favour of Nigel even though Jody did sail a better series as evidenced by having a lower total score before taking the disgard.

There was some tight racing going on !
