When: Saturday, December 3rd
Time: 10:30 AM - 1:30 PM
Goal: To have at least six (6) "student drivers" from each school bringing
three (3) landsailers. If my math is correct, we would then see fifteen (15)
Speedygo II landsailers at the event. If your boats aren't finished yet.TIME
FOR BOATWORK! The more you sail, the more you learn!
Schedule:
10:30 AM - 11:30 AM: Open Sailing
11:30 AM - NOON: This month's program - Tips & Tricks to go
FAST; Basic Racing Strategy; Basic Sailing Rules
NOON -12:30 PM: Lunch (bring $3 per person if you want to buy
into some pizza)
12:30 PM - 1:30 PM: Racing
[From this event onwards, each school is expected to bring all three of
these landsailers to each event. Loaners will not be available.]
Students:
1. Prepare your boats for competition - try to avoid unnecessary
breakdowns.
2. Name your boats and make it visible on the chassis and/or sail.
3. Be sure to come to the event :-)
Prizes will be awarded for: best school turnout, best boat design, best boat
name, and best racing team for the day.
More info about the racing will come later. We will always have some racing
because it's fun to race and you learn FAST by racing. We will tally scores
through June and recognize achievement regularly.
Hope to see you there!
Coach Staheli

PS - Landsailing at Sand Point is scheduled for the December 4th. May I
suggest that we move it (for December only) from Sand Point to the UW
Montlake parking lot? Acres of beautifully smooth cement - the stuff dreams
are made of! More info and directions to come.
