Format for the Nightcap Series – Starting this Saturday, Sept 19 th.

Races will be run from the Committee Boat.

There will be two Classes, Thunderbird and PHRF.

Thunderbirds will continue their two race, Windward/Leeward courses. PHRF will have a single “Random Leg” Course.

A T-bird may choose to race PHRF – notify the RC. If only one PHRF boat checks in they will race with the T-birds.

The Course for PHRF will be displayed on the top reader board, the T-bird course will hang below.

To avoid interference between the two fleets, wind cooperating, PHRF will start first with the A Class flag and sail to a Windward mark further to windward than that for the T-birds. Then, probably, to a Jibe Mark (J on the reader board). PHRF may finish on the opposite side of the CB from the S/F line. This will be indicated on the reader board by a Green F with a Green ♦ subscript. There probably will not be a mark for the end of the line, so consider a line extended from the pin, through the Orange flag on the CB extended out 150 ft., cross close to the CB.

The County is still in Re-opening Phase 2 so Crew Size remains limited as in previous series this season and Flying Sail restrictions still apply.

PTSA Sailing Instructions for 2020 still apply except as modified herein.

Watch this space for possible cancellation due to Very Hazardous smoke and the accompanying Visibility limitations.
