[J24 ListSrv] Fw: J24 Fleet #1 on the Water Seminar and A-Series Party

[sean delaney]

Our fleet is fortunate to be able to bring you a young new member of the class who has brought transformational ideas to a mature boat. If you think everything in the boat has been tried and there are no speed breakthroughs left, prepare to awed. 
There is likely no one in the class currently, who would bring a more radical insight, and do it with enthusiasm and positivity. I have been fortunate to have both raced against Luke, and to be instructed by him, and was beyond impressed on each and every occasion. I was excited to watch him win a Wold Championship and have been eagerly yearning to hear him explain how he did it and how we can too.
Do yourself a favor, and don't miss this opportunity to know, what Luke has to offer you.

 J24 Fleet #1 Members,
PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE EMAIL.

Our training session with Luke Lawrence is set for June 17, 18 and 19. The schedule is as follows:
PLEASE SIGN UP ON THIS DOODLE PAGE. http://doodle.com/poll/kz5c3c3hqey9rqeq
Friday, June 17, 6pm: Luke will give a brief chat and discuss each of your goals for the weekend as well as spend time answering questions at your boats regarding rig tune and boat setup. We will have food for everyone, each team is encouraged to bring a micro-brew or macro-beer of their liking. 
Saturday, June 18, 10am: We will begin the day on the patio discussing the days goals. Bill Allen will be assisting Luke on the coach boat. Two coaches for the price of none! We will run a variety of drills, maneuvers and mini-races. Luke and Billy will review rig tuning on the water. Luke will spend time on each boat when warranted. We may also rotate skippers/crew around on boats.The training should end around 330pm. Everyone is encouraged to arrive early to rig their boats. After the day we plan to have a debrief and then head to a local establishment for drinks and conversation.
Sunday, June 19, 10am: Luke will be on hand in the morning to provide assistance and advice prior to leaving the dock. Sunday is the Rumble. We will attempt to get a start line set early and run 3 minute rolling starts up until 10 minutes before the start of the first race. The first race is at 11am. Luke will observe during racing. Between races he will make suggestions to each boat. The boat finish last in each of the odd numbered races will be driven by Luke. There will be a short impromptu debrief following racing.
A-Series Party following the Rumble: All J24s in Fleet 1 are responsible for supporting the A-Series Party. Each boat is asked to bring a large salad of their choosing, be creative! Each boat is also responsible for brining a handle of alcohol. Please bring the alcohol to the club closet by 5pm on Saturday. The A Series is for the entire club and we through great parties. Bill Allen has also agreed to donate the services of his Baby-Scow-Bar for the entire weekend. Let the fun begin!
Those of you with crew issues should look to each other, the J22 fleet and to myself and Sean Delaney to assist in finding you a great team.
I’d like to thank Fleet #1, Andy Spence-Parsons (organization), Sean Delaney (bringer of all things fun), Sir Billy Allen (the Bar and sage wisdom) and Joel Ronning (housing and support boat) for their support of this great event.
If any of you would like to send me personal notes about your goals, please do so. I will be out of the country (in Guyana drinking Kool-Aid) starting Saturday - Friday morning and may be a little slow to respond.
Sincerely,
Joshua Bone
