Junior Olympics are an organizational nightmare. 200 kids = chaos. The PRO ages about a year every time he does this.
The concern of the PRO will always be... saftey! ... small beach, fast boats = one potential disaster. The race course is already a challenge with opti's lasers, radials and 420's.
One of the issues to resolve is Is it safe to put the kids on the same race course with the 420's and lasers. (This issue is why I started the other thread).
The solution will be... We catamaran clubs need to step up and run another race course at the JO's ... then the kids all mix it up. My Chesapeake JO's are July 14 and 15, They conflict with an adult regatta and it may be a push to make it happen with boats etc. but... where there is a will... there is a way.
