IRC — corrected-time order differs from elapsed-time order

CT = ET × TCC; boats rank by lowest corrected time regardless of who crossed first.

Scoring system: IRC
Start 14:05:00 (= 50700 s since midnight). Corrected times are rounded
half-up to whole seconds before ranking (matches HalSail/Sailwave).

Boat 1: finish 15:05:00  ET = 3600 s   CT = 3600 × 1.05 = 3780.00 → 3780  → 3rd
Boat 2: finish 15:12:58  ET = 4078 s   CT = 4078 × 0.88 = 3588.64 → 3589  → 1st
Boat 3: finish 15:08:30  ET = 3810 s   CT = 3810 × 0.95 = 3619.50 → 3620  → 2nd

Boat 2 finished last on elapsed time but wins on corrected time.
