So this looks to become a F16 1-up fun event.
Better get that cleared-up so the others know that they can come out single-handed as well and not be the odd one out. The doublehanded crews can of course hunt some F18's for fun. What better than to shout :"hurry up! Or get out of the way !" to a 18 footer while sailing a 16 footer ?
Sounds like a fun event to me, 8 km downwind legs, that is going to be some very enjoyable spinnaker sailing. Sadly to far away for me.
Good luck guys !
