Notice a typo in the GBCA dead tree calendar, it has the Heald bank on April 23 & 24.  When it is  Apr 30-May 1, but never the less still enjoy the great photos.

Am I reading the NOR correctly, there is no mention of Offshore Safety Regulations.  No MOB equipment needed or harnesses required??  I would classify this as more of an offshore race than Harvest Moon.  Mark roundings, definite sail changes amd further from the shoreline than HM. 

Am I missing something??

Regardless of whether or not there is anything at all in the NOR, Stinger uses jack lines, lifelong, MOB, and requires all crew to where PFD's after dark.  We also carry wooden plugs in case we have to plug one of the various instrument or rudder holes during the race.

Doesn't everyone do this?
