[Capri25] FW: Rumble in the Bay

[Derek Schmit]

As a crew rep, I'd vote for 1pm.  And i agree each Rumble should be its own mini series, not part of the Champ series.

I’m inclined to leave these logistical issues to the RC because they will have the same problems on every Sunday as they run Rumbles for the other one-design fleets.

It is not a replacement for a Sunday race and therefore the position in the one day regatta will not be scored in the series race that day that it replaced.

Some of the races will be longer than others, and therefore there will be no maximum number of races. Let's see how it goes. With the wind out of the South we may well move the rumble races to the main Lake, but with the wind in an east-west direction the Bay works great. Length of the races will very a great deal depending upon wind velocity.

> Maximum number of races 10.
> Each Sunday Rumble will be scored on its own and not count towards the Champ series.
