Subject: 2008 Season Survey

Mike --

Here are my thoughts on this. Both the regular season and the LD/fun series are set up as one design. We have one set of one-design rules, not two. There are plenty of events that can be sailed PHRF, for those who would rather not race one-design.

Just my 2-cents worth, your mileage may differ....

Mark Lowry outgoing poobah.

:: On the survey, I was wondering of the 12 of 21 votes for
:: somehow altering the weight limit; how many of those
:: were unique votes. Do over 1/2 of the votes cast
:: indicate further dialogue necessary on the framework of
:: the weight limit?
::
:: Also, of the votes cast, how many are going to make an
:: effort to support the LD Fun Series as a Series in
:: total. If for example there are six boats committed to
:: the LD Fun, and they all voted for no weight limit, then
:: I think there should be no weight limit.
::
:: I'd also like to suggest that once the series
:: participants are known; and perhaps each us us should
:: indicate our prime series interest, then, shouldn't the
:: LD/Fun Series interested boats be able to define the
:: rules which make that series a stand alone series. And,
:: I suggest this is the important consideration; a stand
:: alone series.

:: These suggestions because I don't believe boats who are
:: not interested in the LD/Fun series, should quite
:: frankly, have as much weight in the say for this series.

:: :: Eric; congrats on the new position, if you ever need an
:: :: extra hand with anything don't hesitate to ask.
::
:: :: Mark; congrats on being over with it, nice job.

:: :: :: Folks,
:: :: ::
:: :: :: Sorry for the delay in posting the survey results.
:: :: ::
:: :: :: For the class weight limit, there were 21 votes to keep
:: :: :: it at 880 and 5 votes to raise it. So we will keep it at
:: :: :: 880.
:: :: ::
:: :: :: For the LD/Fun series, there were 18 votes to use the
:: :: :: current scoring system and 1 vote for a low point
:: :: :: scoring system. So, the current scoring system will be
:: :: :: used for both series.
:: :: ::
:: :: :: For the LD/Fun weight limit, there were 18 votes to keep
:: :: :: it at 880 pounds, 6 votes for no weight limit, and 1
:: :: :: vote for a modified system which uses half of the
:: :: :: skipper's weight. So, we'll keep both series at 880.
:: :: ::
:: :: :: For Fleet Captain, Eric Deeds will take over from Mark.
:: :: :: To ease the transition, Mark will stay on for 2008 with
:: :: :: help from Eric, and Eric will take over in 2009.
:: :: ::
:: :: :: We are still finalizing the schedule for 2008, but it
:: :: :: should be out soon.
:: :: ::
:: :: :: Thanks to everyone who participated.

:: :: :: Dan
