From the sailing instructions - the "30 minute rule" was not applicable to boats racing fixed mark courses.

12. Time Limit
The time limit for classes not using fixed marks shall be ninety minutes or thirty minutes after the first boat properly sails the course and finishes, whichever is earlier.

The time limit for classes using fixed marks shall be four hours.

Boats exceeding the time limit will be scored Did Not Finish.  This modifies RRS 35.

Okay  - yes I did turn a year older today and I am already forgetting stuff!!!

First - I did not thank my Race Committee at the awards, so here it is: Thank You John Lacy, Scott Lacy, Kevin Box, Kelly Dees, Lori Lacy, Gary Lacy, Tom Dilas on the Signal Boat and the mark set boat - Dwight Bengston and Brian Hawboldt. I congratulate you all for a great weekend.

Second - I did not have the Sunday daily prizes calculated for the awards ceremony, so they are below and if you see your boat name, I owe you a glass.

J105
1. Radiance
2. Infinity

PHRF Spin
1. Tres Hombres
2. Millennium Express

PHRF Non-Spin
1. Be Easy
2. Further
3. Sabani

GBCA Club Handicap
1. Chiron
2. Wandering Star

And the last thing... I did not enter the course distance correctly for the 4th race for the PHRF Non-Spin. The course distance was 6.08, not 5.33. This did not change the final results. Thank you Keith Gray for pointing out this error.

I believe that is all I have. Thank you everyone who particpated and I will see you at the Conundrum, March 19th and the Spring Regatta, March 26th. Why don't you go ahead and sign up!
