Just tried to register for the conundrum. Registration seems closed. Late registration should be open until 8/7 according to NOR. Any help?

I would have race but nothing for a week would have suggested that there was going to be any wind in the morning in August, not sure why we continue to schedule races in the morning in August when the sea breeze doesn't come in until pass 1 pm

Xavier, we sailed above 8kn for the first four legs in 12kn to 15 kn breeze. Wind laid down around 3:00pm to maybe 8kn. I'm glad we didn't start later.

The point is not about how much wind you had at the start, it's about what is the predicted wind in the morning any day in August if you look at the prediction just for this week alone at 11 am, Today 6kts, tomorrow 3kts, Thursday 3kts, Friday 4kts, Saturday 4 kts. Compare to any day after 2 pm it's 4 kts higher. If I'm looking at the wind and trying to decide if I want to race or not I'm sure I'm not the only one. Just Saying.  :)
