6/2/2011 - Skippers racing Sprit Fest, some others - in case you decide to race, and others involved in the running of the race and parties.
Olaf sent some of you an email that mentioned a Skippers Meeting for Saturday, but since there are only 5 J-109's currently planning on racing, and the start times are a bit earlier than last year, it was decided that the Skippers Meeting isn't needed. We are waiving the pre-racing weigh-in, and leaving you on the honor system. If there are any necessary anouncements, they can be made out on the water before the first race, so keep your radio on channel 72. If you haven't gotten your signed Entry Form and check to BYC yet, you must do so before racing.
Although the Sailing Instructions include J-105's, it looks like they will not be racing.
The first warning signal, in Noyack Bay, is scheduled for 10am on Saturday and 9am on Sunday. There will be a Goslings Spritfest party after the racing on Saturday at BYC with food and drinks. On Sunday, we conclude the weekend with a prizegiving cocktail party around 4pm.
See Above Link - you'll find the Sailing Instructions and a Scratchsheet.
Yours in Sailing,
