Updated SIs

[Kapn Keith]

Cat Folk,

The Skipper's Meeting has been held, the decrees have been made.  Attached are the provisional updated SIs.

We're moving forward with the moving of the of the West River Catamaran Racing Association (WRCRA) Tuesday Night/Frostbite open class catamaran under the umbrella of the West River Sailing Club (WRSC).  Thirty-five years of True Blazers Not Blue Blazers looks forward to the next 35!  Details will roll out, but we're still going to be the same bunch of hull-flying wind in the hair sand in the toes sheet in and send it trapped out rapscallions we've always been!  The action starts next Tuesday, be there!

Updates to SIs are to the selected channel for VHF communications - it is now 05 instead of 69, and to the on the water course shortening instructions, see below:

Old:

3.Any given course may be changed based on wind conditions.
a) Lead boat makes the call on course change
b) One (1) long horn shall signify a course change. Lead boat shall deploy a bright flag to indicate course change/shortening.
c) After the horn the next race mark in the course will be the last turning mark.
d) Preferred course shortening marks will be identified at the skipper's meeting.

New:

3.Any given course may be changed based on wind conditions.
a) Lead boat makes the call on course change

b) One (1) long horn or whistle shall signify a course change at the lead boat’s next mark.  Lead boat shall notify all on channel 05 and ask that everyone pass the change along.

c) After the notification the next race mark in the course will be the last turning mark.

d)Preferred course shortening marks will be identified at the skipper's meeting.

Cheers,

K

replying to move this to the top of awareness for John.  I thought there was a WRSC specific update to the SIs, but this is what I found quickly...

In Atlanta we kept it simple

Nobody over early and don't bump anyone.
