Good morning peeps...

If you are planning to race Chili Chase/Fall Series #3, pay close attention to the course direction... boats can go either way - your choice... With that, be mindful of the racing rules, other boats, and mark roundings...

The length of course should spread people out where they do not interact at mark roundings, but strange things happen.

Who's up for a full moon sail on 10/28?

Thinking of Fall Series Standard course with start times +6 hours.

No awards, no post party... just old school evening sail.

  The calendar has the first Fall Series scheduled for Oct. 21st. So where is the Notice of Race and/or registration?
