Deja Vu ... Shades of Wine and Roses
It's all about expectations... what does the NOR say?
If it doesn't ... perhaps the OA should resolve the class splits now and announce them before you get in the car and drive!
Sorry Jake... I think when you say... well... if 5 boats show up then they should get their own start.... begs the question... what happens to the oddball who would have competed against the 5 boats, traveled, paid and is now in a non competitive class. It really is too late to decide this sort of thing at the skippers meeting.
Put in the NOR... or have the OA make their best guess at attendance, declare the class splits and let the racers know ahead of time.
Mark, don't you have anything better to do than bash us for having a regatta and talking about how it might be run? Fact is, I don't care how this regatta is scored out. I'll try my best to win whatever class I'm in. And, something's working - there are 39 boats signed up for what is typically one of our smaller regattas. Please stop being such a pain and put your energy into building/fixing your own area.
