The FIFTH race of the Tuesday evening series! AUGUST 3, 2021
KEEPING IT SHORT! as we are starting to lose the light..and it is a repeat as the course maker has Lyme disease and her brain is in a fog. Please note that we have instigated a time limit in the sailing instructions for the series. The committee is suggesting the following;
(10) TIME LIMIT
10.1 If no boats in Class B or Class A (or any other class) have finished before 2015hrs then that class race is abandoned.
10.2 Boats failing to finish within 30 minutes after the first boat in its class sails the course and finishes will be scored Did Not Finish without a hearing. This changes RRS 35, A4 and A5.
They don’t want to ruin anyone’s fun but all boats need to be on the same page!
