BIG LIDO RACE





The 3rd installment in the Lido 14, Fleet 21 Championships for 2010 hits Sunday, March 14. There is a ton of action within a 3 point range at the front. With 4 throw-outs, the final outcome is still WAY up in the air.
As usual, the skippers' meeting is 11:00 on the launch ramp. Hit the website for the Notice of Race and Sailing instructions. http://sites.google.com/site/lido14oceanside/home  While you're there, play the Rules Game under Racing Rules of Sailing section...your tactics will improve.
NOAA was bribed with the remaining funds in the Fleet treasury, and they have guaranteed the timely delivery of a perfect Oceanside saililng day.http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/sgx/fcst/zonemap.php . Time Schedule is Pacific Daylight Time
So promise your crew you won't yell, chase the rats out of your sails, set your chronometers, and hit the course, for the penultimate Championship racing day.
