This weekend at the Upcoming Tradewinds regatta. Rick White announced he will have 6 starts for 50 boats??? Probably: two for the spin boats.
With 10 F18's and 10 20's and the one F16 will be tossed in with the a different fleet.
Rick does not know yet how many starts there will be for the Tradewinds -- won't know until after registration.
As I recall, Rick was using hypothetical numbers just to illustrate the time difference between using the new starting rules and the old starting rules, as far as doing multiple starts. Sorry if the number came across as fact.
