I'm "visiting" Japan on an all expense paid trip courtesy of my Uncle Sam. Hope 
to be back and sailing with you guys by the end of April!

Responses to my previous query were unanimously in favor of racing on Sunday 
afternoons. 

So the first gun will be Sundays at 1 o'clock (1300) followed by a 1310 start. 
We'll use the proposed schedule below. Start thinking boat speed & I'll be 
putting out a coordinating email the week before the 10 April start.

Thanks,
Steve

 WSSC Spring 2011 ad Hoc Race Series 

[Please pass to anyone I may have missed] 

Proposed schedule:   
     Each weekend 10 April-19 June, except: 
     No race 23-24 April or 7-8 May (Easter & Mothers’ Day weekends) 
     22 May (Sunday) Pagan River challenge (Conclusion of Warwick YCC cruise 
weekend) 
Organization: Ad Hoc 
     As we did last year, each race to be “organized/coordinated” by email the 
week before. 

For those skippers likely to race  this Spring: 

   Pls email me your preferences for racing on either Saturday or Sunday using 
a percentage scale, e.g.: 

     70/30 would indicate a higher likelihood of racing on Saturday than Sunday 
     10/90 would indicate most chance of racing on Sunday 
          (The first percentage will always represent Saturday) 

     Saturday races would probably start mid-morn. 
     Sunday races would probably start early afternoon. 

Should you be interested some other races further afield, occurring during the 
Series: 
5/27-28 Down the Bay Race 
6/3-5 Southern Bay Race Week 
6/17-18 Cock Island Race 

John Wandling is an excellent source for information on racing around Hampton 
Roads. 

Other suggestions? 


Thanks, 
Steve
