WOW, only four weeks left!!
The forecast for Tuesday looks awesome…Sunny, 75 degrees and a NNW wind at 10.  Don’t forget your wind jackets and booties, it might get cold.
Rumor has it that this week’s Race Chair – Steve Chapman, to mix things up, may run an upwind finish course.  For those newer skippers, if you see the start/finish line ABOVE the gates or inside the course, remember this:

After completing the first leg of the course, a boat shall not cross the starting line. A boat shall not cross the finishing line until she is completing the last leg of the course and finishes. If you sail through a start-finish line by mistake (you are not starting or finishing), you can back out the way you came and go around either end of the starting line to correct your error, it is referred to as unwinding in the rule book.  My point simply was to not be complacent in your sailing but be aware of different types of race courses, start/finish line locations and conditions.
