Kent. Completely agree that starts have been a bit chaotic in the past.

2 Years ago, Jay was concerned we were gonna lose the wind and just was itching to get it going.

Last year, well, Chris also got itchy.

The forecast are all over the road right now, good news is we have plenty of wind in the forecast to work with this weekend, I think it is going to come down to direction to run the course.

With that said, it would be helpful for all riders to have a watch and sync them at the skippers meeting so everyone has a pretty good idea of when the flag and horn are going to sound.

Have considered having a ski at the start to point to act as a barrier and also get things off smoothly, but really don't want to have a ski in pounding surf.

Points well taken, and we are spending alot of time and thought this year on the start sequence and making sure it goes smoothly and fairly.
