13 miles is an exaggeration.

John, the chart was from the SI's for the OCR - available on-line.

It's more like 13 miles round trip.

As PU explained it, the course location was partially due to the accomodation for the disabled sailor classes being included (and them being located as close to their launch as possible). That pushed the T's even further down the bay.

BTW, Rick - we were on station an hour and a half before scheduled start today - at 9:30 AM.

Tomorrow we start at 10:00 AM. We leave the dock at 7:30.

The master had a really bad cold today and went below at the last gate rounding on the second race. Left me in charge for the finish of that race and the whole third race. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Hit it within 90 seconds of my target time. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
