OK, I am a fool for saying this, but I will "volunteer" to get involved. I swore that I wouldn't get involved in "organizing" stuff again....but there seems a need for someone to step up.

My background:

Charter founder for PHRF in South Florida (1978)

Tornado Class measurer...(1974-76)

Organizer Key West to Cuba race (1978-79)

Key West Race Week founder with KWSC as fleet captain (1977).

yada, yada, yada....

Can we have a meeting at Spring Fever with you (DI) , Jake, and a few interested folks?

Tell me what has been done so we don't gave to start completely over. What sytem ? Texel...SCHRS?

I would think that we should get the measurement system in place and try it parallel to PH until we see how it does.

This should just be regionalized within Florida and the Mid-South as a trial. Regatta organizers can choose to use it if they want. We need to get a few key boats rated first.

Right now I have no clue what the parameters are for either system, but I am a fast learner.

Let's talk..guys. I am willing if you actually are ready to give it a go.
