The critical issues are wind (of course) and how smooth the floor really is -
these landsailers don't move so well over pits and valleys. Size doesn't
really matter unless you have the wind (fans) to cover the space. I'd say
Whitman fits the bill just fine.

Subject: [landsailing] Your input is requested - Whitman or Sand Point
for June?
Sailors,
The Sailing Through School board of directors is trying to make a decision that
might change when and where our June event will be.
Option 1: Keep it at Whitman (indoor sailing) on June 10th
Pros: we have the gym reserved and it is already on people's calendars, we know
fan sailing works in the gym, everyone knows where Whitman is.
Cons: One team cannot make June 10th, UW Sailing Team mostly unavailable to
race against us.
Option 2: Move it to a hanger (indoor sailing) at Sand Point on a weekday
afternoon/evening (Tuesday or Wednesday - probably June 6th,7th,13th, or 14th)
Pros: It is a HUGE indoor space with smooth floors (larger courses? more boats
sailing?), UW Sailing Team can probably come sail against us, it will show
students Sail Sand Point where they can do "real" sailing, we will find out if
the hanger is suitable for events next year.
Cons: we would have to notify everyone of the change, we don't know if it will
be better or worse than Whitman, we need to find $100-$200 to rent it.
What is your gut reaction? Your 2 cents is helpful.
Hope to see you tomorrow for practice (Whitman 10 am - 1 pm).
Todd Staheli
