(03/08/2017) Regatta Fleet intentions - Thursday 3 Aug The forecast remains challenging for tomorrow and so we are planning on the assumption there will be no racing. Instead, we will offer a mixture of shore based and on the water activity for all regatta fleet sailors. Morning Coaching / mini racer fleet - rib trip to Castle Cove beach (within the harbour) Racing fleet - shore based training exercises Afternoon Reverse of the morning Lunch will be at WPNSA. The rib ride to Castle Cove has been discussed in full with the joint organising authorities. We will be taking additional ribs (freed up by splitting the activity) to ensure the ratio is 8:1 or better. Bow Stickers We will be checking bow stickers in the morning to ensure they are the latest versions. This is part of the sailing instructions and does help our relationship with the class sponsors Main Fleet Decisions about main fleet will be made in the morning so please refer to the current schedule.
