Michel,
Jubilee plans to race on Sunday.
In the past when we have not had a weather mark boat Jubilee has placed a weather mark upwind of the starting line. A one mile leg usually works well, less if winds are light. If there is a big wind shift I can scoot up to move the mark before the start of the next race. I would ignore small shifts. More important to have a square starting line, and one of the boats can easily move the pin so Peter doesn't have to re-anchor.
Given the crew you have I think it is fine to use the pin end of the line for the leeward mark if the race is more than 2 legs.
Thanks,
Keith

Racers
I will be officiating on Firth of Tay for the summer regatta. The plan is to do Windward Leeward courses, but using a mark for the windward mark instead of a mark boat.
I would like to get an idea of estimated attendance. Could captains please answer this post with their intent to participate.
More details will follow as we get closer to race time.
Thanks
