Peeps,
The wind has finally come back and the Thursday night series will kick
off next week. As always, sign up online so that we can score you and
provide enough post race refreshments.

We don't have social chairs for next Thursday lined up yet, if you can
make it happen contact Wes (wmaclaggan at gmail.com). We need to get
social chairs lined up for the whole series. There are enough of us
so that we can usually double up on a night. Please let Wes know when
you want to throw down. The bar was set high last year with Rob's
seafood spectacular.
The start time is 6:30 for us and 6:15 for the lasers. We're going to
try to get the lasers started well before us and bring them in earlier
as well to try to avoid congestion at the ramp.
Nightly scoring is the same as last year, there are no throw outs and
low points win. For the series we have reduced the bonus points for
showing up each night from 5 to 3, keep your best 12 races, high
points win. For a more detailed explanation:

Fees, you're going to be writing most of your check directly to TI
this year. We're not sure exactly what the breakdown will be, but the
total will be pretty much equal to the 125 for the series and 25 for
the fleet. This was a late breaking change and we haven't figured out
exactly what the numbers will be. Alex should have some word on that
soon.
See you all soon.
Pete
