Re: Yacht Highscores
Hi mathgogocart,
Haven't played that game for years! Played it quite a bit back then, though, but I think it was called YahtC (same game, I think).
Anyway, I got 318.

Re: Yacht Highscores
Hi mathgogocart,
I didn't know it was possible to get a score that low! 
No disrespect, but are you sure you're playing it correctly? The rules are on the opening page.
Are you using all 3 rolls of the dice? Could be that you're making some wrong choices, too.

Re: Yacht Highscores
Xlnt! 
You'll be past 300 before you know it!!
Btw, the highest score you can get is 375...for which you'd need the following:
1 Yacht of ones;
1 Yacht of twos;
1 Yacht of threes;
1 Yacht of fours;
1 Yacht of fives;
4 Yachts of sixes;
1 Yacht of any one denomination;
1 Full House;
1 Small Straight;
1 Big Straight.
That might take us a while to get!!
