Michel,
Jubilee is happy to do RC on the 28th. No worries.
I had written earlier that this would be my 4th time ... I was PRO for the Womens Regatta with some of my crew, onboard Fine Tuned.
Thanks,
Keith
BTW, regarding the length of a starting line ... its a bit like trying to figure out how much hot sauce to put in the chilli. It depends!
Before the 1st Race last week the true wind was 3 - 5 knots and the line was good. Before the start of the 2nd Race the true wind was 13 - 15 knots ... and the line was too short.
As I told Matt, I'm kicking myself for not moving the pin.
I am one of those who adds a pinch of this and a slurp of that and about mmmm, that much hot sauce to the chilli. Am I cooking for 4 or 8 or 11? Kids or adults. It depends.
I have never used the method described in the RC Manual for setting a line. It does not take into account the wind strength, sea state, or experience level of the competitors. Just saying ...

We are doing real progress. This leaves 2 slots and as per my previous communication there are four, seasoned racing boats that can and should be able to figure it out between themselves: Blue Bayou, Happy Place, Kaya and Put in Bay
1) the most urgent is this Sunday, where no one has volunteered.
2) next Sunday Jubilee did sign up, but it would be the third time Jubilee does it this year and it isn't right since the others only did it once
Hopefully all this will get resolved today, it should not be down to the wire like last week.
Thank you Doug for the notes mash up and RC advice.
Michel
