So is the conclusion,"it can't be made to work perfect therefore forget it, don't try"? This sounds like where we are now. Sailors are always going to go the the races they want to. If there are more than one race on the same weekend in a local area, at least why not point it out? Maybe next year the clubs involved would work it out on their own or combine races. Maybe the best thing NAMSA can do is publish all regatta dates. Any conflicts will be obvious; the sailors will make their choices and attendance will work things out in time.
