On Saturday at Charlie and Meghan’s (thank you very much for hosting) Bert introduced the idea of short course racing in the Bay for a fleet 2 or 3 Sundays during the season.  These would be individually scored with their own trophies and not part of the Sunday Champ series.

I propose that the Sonar fleet use this for crew trade-around.  We did this on Thursdays many years ago and it brought a lot of people’s skill level up a notch or two.

The idea would be

·        One person who knows the boat, skipper or regular crew, is on each boat

·        The other people for that day are a mixture from other boats

·        The results from the races count for the boat regardless of who did what on the boat

Benefits are

·        People will trade knowledge and skills so newer sailors learn from more experienced sailors

·        Skill levels all around will increase

·        A boat which is often in the back of the fleet might win the day with more experienced sailors on board

·        Fleet members will become better acquainted with each other

What do you think?  We will need someone to herd the cats.

Ernest
