The MYA Heat Management System (HMS) is the race management system normally used in the UK to allow many boats to compete in an event by using a number of heats. It is a progressive development of the Peter Stollery EORS (Equal Opportunity Racing System).

The file HMS 2014 Scoring(v2a)blank.xls, which can be extracted from the zip file HMS2014(v2.0a).zip (downloadable from this site - see link above) is an Excel workbook specifically tailored to score HMS 2014 v2.

Essentially the same as HMS 2013 there are changes as a consequence of the way boats unable to continue sailing, previously known as withdrawn boats, are handled
