This from an ongoing thread on the SSS website. The discussion has been about stack up at Blossom Rock and the starting order.

Rick, the other thing to consider as you watch the entries is to give the Express 27 fleet their own start. This was suggested at the Skippers' Meeting for the Corinthian Race, and had it been done it would have made that 30-boat Sportboat start into two 15-boat starts. This would have been better for them and better for the several singlehanded Sportboats who had to start with them.

Round the Rocks is another race in the Express 27 fleet's Long Distance Series, so they will again be racing "competitively." This is a great fleet and it's cool to have them in the race - we can make it even better by giving them their own start.
