Hi: Just writing to ask for a slight rewrite of the questionaire before a lot of votes come in. That is due to the the limter placed in the first question having to do with the weight limits modification, or not. I have proposed for the 2008 LD/FUN series that there's no weight limit for the PHRF events certainly. Currently, the questionaire does not address this rule modifcation for the LD/FUN series only. Subsequently disregards this potential in the voting placing focus solely on the weight limit, or not, in the Real Fleet Series. Dan, can you please get a tally on this weight modification try out for the LD/FUN series specifically; by adding the question. Thanks. Also, I had proposed some LD/FUN race chioces not reflected in the August and September time frame voting list. These include Plastic Classic (a low priority for me but a choice left out), the OYRA HalfMoon Bay Race, the OYRA Farallons Race, and the doublehanded Half Moon Bay race. All potentially are LD/FUN easy to administer choices for the late summer time frame; in addition to those noted. Finally, I would like to reiterate a point I've previosuly made about not homogenizing the two series together through race duplication. And that is because I think the two series should enable the potential for more trophy winners at the end of the season; than fewer. For Real Fleet Series racers this might mean sailing in a few more LD/FUN series races. Thats because there seems to be an odd trend, to win both series by focusing on the Real Fleet Series and then doing a couple of the highly particpted LD/FUN races. I think thats an off strategy that discourages participation and more trophy winners at the end of the season. Also a restraint within the framework development of the Real Fleet Series too adversely affect this skewed outcome into the LD/FUN Series; by limiting LD/FUN within the Real Fleet Series framework. This is why I originally proposed that each series should stand on its own races. Right now lacking these voting form added choices, the development framework seems to slip back toward this LD/FUN series restraint that deemphasies the LD/FUN Series for those most interested in that series. mb :: So far the following 16 boats have filled in the survey.
