All those venues look good to me, although perhaps we should try to get some more Easterly events in? If Alan and Jan can organise something at their club that'd at least spread things out a bit.

I don't know if any of the F16 sailors on the continent can be tempted to make the journey, but having Mumbles and an event at yours close to each other can only make the journey more worthwhile.

I'd agree with dropping ECPR from the scoring. Grafham's a tricky one, but on balance I think we should score the single handers event as a TT result. If it's anything like this year, sailing in the handicap fleet just isn't worth it, so I'd expect to see only 1-up F16s there anyway.

I would suggest a slight change to the scoring system: rather than having Mumbles be worth double points, have it scored as two races with the same results. i.e. winning it gives you two 1sts. You can then discard one or both of your results from Mumbles if you do better elsewhere. As it stands, the Mumbles results are effectively undiscardable (a 5th at Mumbles is worth more than a 1st elsewhere), but the event accounts for 50% of the points available in the series. Scoring Mumbles as two separate races should hopefully keep the TT scoring interesting up to the end of the season.
