Race tonight wed 9-13

After spending the morning watching radar, looking at several weather reports and predictions, I am cancelling tonights race. Concensus predicts squalls between 6 and 9 PM after heavy rain from 2-4 PM. I hate having to do this on our last Wed night but thank you to all who raced this summer. There were some very close races. Hope you all wil be back next year.

Racing Area Update

The Rendevous for the JFK will be at MBSA List C #5 President Roads Anchorage "E". which is an alternative rendevous listed in the SIs.

After discussing the start area with some of the boats registered and a couple who may register, it was decided to use the above listed as the rendevous for the JFK. THe reasons for this adaptation are, all of the boats registered are from the Boston Harbor area,  and the distance being shorter could enable other boats to register.

Drop marks will be used. The course configuration will be one of the MBSA Standard Courses as described in the SIs.

racing 7/26

The Wed Night Race tonight will have a different signal boat. It will be a blue Eastern 24. It will fly the blue RC flag. Unfortunately our usual signal boat is has a problem and is not functional at present.

We will not have a course board but will post courses on a white board and will announce the course over the radio for each class and with a loud hailer.  All flags will be displayed on poles. 

Thank you for understanding

tonights race

The most recent Clime radar from NOAA shows weather hitting Boston Harbor during our race times. Weather is projected to travel from southwest to northeast and the site shows lightening 20 miles away. Therefore since many skippers and crews have to travel, and in an abundance of cation, I am cancelling tonights race. Sorry. See you next week.

Happy Fourth
