[quote=beachsailor][quote=klppurdy]Ha ha, what year was that beachsailor? [/quote]
The last year I did the race. :lol: I never worked so hard to be 15 min late to the finish. I would do it again but have not had the time. The bigest problem(to me) is if there is a thunder storm, there is no where to run(and the wind usually dies after it passes thru).
The usually scenario is light air for the start and when the wind fills it comes from the back of the fleet.
The start is staggered based on rating with the slowest boats starting first. The problem is there is less wind(can you say no wind) early
in the morning so the faster boats are not starting that far behind you. They really need to adjust the start based on the predicted wind speed to give everyone a fair chance at the Mug. I can only remember 1 time that the mug went to a mono.<!-- editby --><em>Edited by beachsailor on May 07, 2014 - 12:10 PM.</em><!-- end editby --> [/quote]
