Starting sequence:
The starting sequence will be 3 minutes, with sound signals made over the radio by the Race Committee boat at each minute. A Wake-up call will be made at 17:54, after which boats should stay clear of the starting area until the Warning signal of their class has been made.
Order of starts:
Cruiser B: Warning signal - 17:55, Start - 17:58
Cruiser A: Warning signal - 17:58, Start - 18:01
PHRF: Warning signal - 18:01, Start - 18:04
Start/Finish line:
Will be an imaginary line from the yellow B Quarantine Buoy in the Main Channel to the two posts at the NW corner of G basin.
Start with the B Buoy on your starboard side. Finish with the B Buoy on your starboard side.
Course for all classes.
This is a slalom course. Please pay close attention.
After the start take the remaining main channel buoys on alternating sides of your boat. After the start take the first buoy to port, the second to starboard, third to port, etc. until the last buoy off the Coast Guard station. Then tack out the entrance channel keeping between the no sail buoys. There is a buoy close to the breakwater in the center of the entrance channel. Take it to port and return down the entrance channel, again keeping between the no sail buoys. Take the first (Coast Guard) buoy to port and then the remaining buoys on alternate sides of your boat. Go all the way to the A buoy and after rounding it go to the B buoy/two posts finish line (an upwind finish).
Have fun and watch out for other boats.
Finishing:
At approximately 30 seconds before your finish, announce "Your-Boat-Name approaching" on VHF Channel 71. If the Race Committee does not respond, record your own finish time and proximity to other boats when your helm crosses the line, and text to (424) 245-0213 by midnight. Boats failing to do so will be scored as DNF.
Boats that intend to retire before finishing should inform the Race Committee on VHF Channel 71.
Monitor Channel 71 for any course changes, such as a short course in case of no wind.
After-sail:After the race, meet at The Shack in Playa del Rey for burgers, fries, and lies.
