Yes,
Beverly I am aware of the disparity between Spin and Non spin and will keep that in mind
Wind predictions and models will certainly dictate a course for all classes.
The chance of the non spin class being sent on the long course is small and I would if the predictions indicate good wind thru out the day / evening
I would query the non spin fleet before sending them on the longer course ( some are a little slower than their competitors ), and I don' t want to have boats unable to finish because of a dying breeze.
I will see you on the water hopefully

Jim - not sure if you saw my message in the discussion about long v. short course for Spin boats, but a long course for Non-Spin means a greater likelihood of little to no wind near the end of the course, keeping us out there much longer including the RC boat
who has to wait for us. I'd love for there to be strong wind for the entire race but I can't recall it ever happening. Appreciate your consideration.
Thank you.
