<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Bert,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There should still be a start for the Sonar's for
the Commodore Cup.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Amity III has been very careful to not use member
on board races to the extent of the boat not having the boat go out for
races so that if need be Bill would have the opportunity to sail the
Commodore Cup Races.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If fleet #5 later chooses in the 11th hour not to
score it as part of the Commodore Cup races than I guess that is the fleets or
clubs choice. You referred to the Lonar Cup and ADA and I agree that we
changed the rules .... both were done at a official fleet meeting at the
beginning of the year not after the fact.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I believe there still should be a Sonar Start for
the Commodore Cup.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is a different race and </FONT><FONT
face=Arial size=2>It has always been part of the schedule.... </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I believe a option could be to combine the
long distance race of the Star of the North and the Commodore Cup race into one
counted race that would accommodate both purposes.</FONT></DIV>

the North</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi All,<BR><BR><FONT size=4><B>There will be no Commodore Cup
race for Sonars this Saturday</B></FONT>. <BR><BR>The Sonar fleet will
have one fewer Commodore Cup race. If you are not in the Star of the
North, but want to sail Saturday, send an email to the Sonar fleet.
There are some Sonar teams short for Saturday because they have Friday/Sunday
crew from other fleets who want to sail the Commodore Cup in their own boat
Saturday.<BR><BR>Its like the Lonar Cup race. When the fleet decided to
hold the Lonar, that meant there was no Big Island race that day for full
crewed Sonars. When the fleet decided to sail the ADA in 2007 using
Appendix B (no spinnakers), a boat couldn't go out with spinnaker and be
scored.<BR><BR>Regards,<BR>Bert Foster, Chairman<BR>WYC Race Committee<BR>---
