	If you are going to use  this program,  you are asked by the author 
	to please send a check for $10(ten dollars) to Terry Beadle.   This
	small amount will help compensate the many months of work that went
	into the creation of this program,  and will  encourage the  author
	to make more programs.  It also registers you for all the free help
	you might need to fully  utilize this program, either written or by
	phone,  and  notice of fixes and new  releases.   For an  extra $10
	(ten dollars) you can also order the latest version on disk  either
	5 1/4 or 3 1/2 inch media.

	SAILSCOR is a very powerful and comprehensive sailboat race scoring
	program.  It's a quick and easy way to score  sailboat races, print
	results  and maintain  seasonal  standings.  It features  automatic
	prompting  of  race  results  on a  boat  by  boat  basis,  thereby 
	eliminating  the need to enter a boats  description more than once.
	Ties are automatically broken by the program using the standard tie
	breaking  rules.   Multiple  copies of the  results  are  generated
	without a copier or running the program multiple times.
	
	Easy to use menus simplify each step of operation from the creation
	of a fleet to the  printing  of individual  race  results,  regatta
	results  and  seasonal standings.   This  program also  contains an
	extensive set of editing capabilities so that fleet information can
	be  easily  updated and  corrected.   It  also  contains  the three
	standard methods  of  scoring  races:  (1) the  HIGH  POINT method,
	(2) the LOW POINT method, (3) the OLYMPIC method.
	
	This  program  was developed in conjunction with a SUNFISH sailboat
	fleet and  has been  used for  many years.   However,  it has  been
	modified  to provide  use by many types of sailboat fleets.  It has
	the  capability  to  support any number of fleets.   Each fleet can
	contain as many as 200 boats and 100  races.
	 	
	A  sample  fleet  file(SAMPLE.DAT)  is  supplied  for your use.  It
	contains 10 boats and  5 races. Use it to become familiar with this
	program.
	
	The files associated with this program are:
		READ.ME      - The file you are viewing.
		SAILSCOR.EXE - The program itself.
		SAILSCOR.DOC - The Users Manual.
		SAMPLE.DAT   - A sample fleet.
		
	This program will run on any PC Compatible system(XT or AT).
	It requires an 80 column display(MONO or COLOR).
	It also requires an 80 column ASCII printer(EPSON, etc.)
	
	Print  the  SAILSCOR.DOC  file.   It is a  complete  USER'S  MANUAL
	describing  how to use this program,  how to register it and how to
	submit problems and suggestions.
	
	To start the program, you merely enter SAILSCOR.
	
	The BREAK(Ctrl & Pause) key  interrupts and  terminates the program
	regardless  of  what's  happening.   Use  it ONLY when you have to.
	Nothing is saved when the BREAK key is used.
 
 
	HAPPY SAILING!!!
