SCSC Crew Training / Start sequence  ! !

For anyone attending the On-the-Water portion of Crew Training this weekend, the Race Committee will be using a new starting sequence.  It is slightly modified from our previous Single Start sequence, and is more in line with Rule 26 in the Racing Rules of Sailing.

This will be one of the sequences used in our regular racing season this year.  Additional information about starting sequence changes will be provided at the Skippers Meeting next week.
