Dear Tuna skippers,
Frank Lawler of "Tackful" will teach us the ins-and-outs of starts in our
famous Spring Tuna Tune-up. This event is for novice skippers who want to
practice some starts, as well as for experienced folks who want to get
their crews ready for the season. It's also one of the most fun events of
the year!
On Sat April 5th we'll put out a starting line with a short course in
beautiful Clipper Cove to practice as many starts as we can fit in. Start
at 11, about 6 starts and very short races (~ 5 min each), and then we'll
break for a pot luck lunch during which Frank will give some feedback.
Then, it's back on the water for a few more starts and we'll be done before
3 pm.
You can come over and bring your Tuna, or just come over and we'll find you
a boat to crew on. Please bring crew and/or interested other skippers or
friends.
Please let us know 1) if you're coming, 2) if you're bringing your boat, 3)
how many crew you're bringing.
It would be great to have someone volunteer to take some pictures and write
a short piece for NorCal sailing to give the fleet some advertisement.
Also, if this date doesn't work for a whole lot of people we can postpone
to April 19 after the Wheeler regatta, so let me know if that's the case.
In the past years we've had 8-10 boats out for this event and it's a great
way to get toknow the fleet and do some informal races. As always, please
let me know if you have any questions!
Cheers,
Anna
