New Spirit Rider Regatta Start Times Coming

0
0
 
Boats leave the East Marina at 9:00 AM tomorrow morning and meet in front of the Ocean Club. If you are crewing, be early. 
Be ready to cross the starting line on or after your start time.  There are start times as little as 6 seconds a part. All sailboat racing rules apply, including right’s of way, jumping the gun and touching a mark.
 
Dave Williams will be announcing the start times on VHF channel 72. He will synchronize his time with yours 10 minutes before the first start to insure each boat goes out on time. 
 
If anything changes, I will let you know using this mailing list. If nothing changes there will be no further communication other than announcements on VHF 72.
 
Share your background. If you have interesting information about your boat or past experience (past wins, boat name stories, etc.) please email them to Noreen noreenlaw@aol.com so she can spice up the commentary for the spectators. 
 
Send your comments and feedback to members@pointlookoutyc.com
 
 
Good luck,
~Rob

Hello

Even a small donation could help Point Lookout Yacht (PLYC) reach their fundraising goal. And if you can’t make a donation, it would be great if you could share the fundraiser to help spread the word.

Thanks for taking a look!
