Mark,
Thanks for the description.
We used to use it at our club when no one wanted to man the start boat because everyone wanted to sail. It worked well without the use of a power boat but the fleet was only small.
It would be ineresting to see it used in a very large cat fleet. It may level the playing field a little and bring more racing tactics into the game.

Regards,
Phill
