:: All,
::
:: Below is the schedule that I have been working on. I
:: welcome and want feedback. But in the end I am going to
:: make a call based on what believe is best for the fleet.
::
:: My goals with our schedule are as follows.

:: 1. No overlapping regattas (never split the fleet)

:: 2. Get maximum turnout and make the season competitive

:: 3. Roughly one LD and Bouy race a month from March to
:: October.

:: 4. Keep the total entry costs for the season around
:: $1000

:: 4. Support the YC that is hosting Nationals

:: 5. Don't overlap with regattas that pull our crews away
:: (RBBS, J70 Worlds, Express 37 Nationals, Moore 24
:: Nationals)
::
:: Remember that the scoring rules for the fleet require
:: that you have to attend at least half of the races for
:: the either the Championship (Buoy) or Deeds Trophy (Long
:: Distance) series to qualify.
