I think the earlier start time is a good idea. Years ago the Rum Races were dominated by performance boats which could finish the races fairly quickly. The number of boats that participate in the Cruising Class has increased dramatically over the last few years. Most of these boats require more time to complete the courses. The earlier start time will allow these boats to finish and make it to the party before it gets too late. One other option may be to allow the earlier start time for the Cruiser Class and retain the later start time for the other classes. This may allow the participants to arrive at the party at similar times. Just my thoughts. Its no fun finishing after dark when you can't see the sail numbers or boat names. In any case.. we are looking forward to Rum #1 Saturday!

Shorthanded offshore in TX? Well, Harvest Moon won't allow it due to unlit oil rigs, or so I'm told. We tried...

There have been complaints about boats not turning in their time for the Club Handicap. It would help if you would publish a web address that we can send them to.
Anyway, Gemini, sail number 55 had a finish time of 19:50:20 if anyone cares, for the race on 08/23/2014. Race #7
Would someone get this info to Kevin Box of Chris Dees or whoever is running it this year.
