*Notice of Race:*
*1st (?) Annual TI Random Pairs Team Race*
*September 8, 2007*
**
Treasure Island Sailing Center
B.Y.O. V15
Report Time: 11:00 am
First Race: 12:00 am (sharp)

It was recently suggested that having a random pairs team race at TI would
be a great way to get a lot of people team racing in a unique and low-key
format (thanks for the great idea Archie).

For those of you who are unfamiliar with the format, random pairs team
racing is 2 vs. 2 team racing in which each boat is paired with a different
teammate and opponent for each race. After a number of rotations, boats will
be ranked according to winning percentage and top placers will advance to a
short Championship Round to determine a victor.

This is a great opportunity for experienced team racers looking to
get some boat-handling and boat-on-boat practice, as well as for people who
don't have a steady 3-boat team or are somewhat new to team racing
altogether. This will be a fun, casual day of racing on the cove with BBQ
and beverages to follow.

It is anticipated that a very modest entry fee will be required to offset
costs of food/beverage, etc (more details to follow).

It would be great to get a good turnout for what should be a very fun day of
sailing. Please signup on the V15 website if you will be

If you have any questions, please feel free to get in touch with me.

See you on the water,
