Notice of Change to Thursday Night Sailing Instructions
The Sailing Instructions for Thursday Night Racing have been modified. The fleet break between B and C has been changed from 150 to 145. Section 7.3 now reads:
7.3. The classes (i.e. fleet breaks) for the Thursday Night series will be announced
at the sign-up night(s) held prior to the first race of the Spring Series and will
be determined by the number and ratings of boats registering. The classes
will remain in place for both the Spring and Summer Series and will be
approximately as follows:
| Fleet | Racing Rating | Flag |
| A | Below 99 | “A” (Alpha) |
| J105 | J105Class | Class Flag or “J” (Juliette) |
| B | 99 through 144 | “B” (Bravo) |
| C | 145 through 184 | “C” (Charlie) |
| D | 185 and over | “D” (Delta) |
Double Handed Racing -- New for 2017
The 2017 Thursday Night Racing series will be open to double handed sailed boats. Boats will start with the fleet that corresponds to their PHRF-NE racing rating, will receive a rating modification of +10 seconds per mile, and are allowed the use of an autopilot. Complete rules will be published in the 2017 Thursday Night Sailing Instructions later this Spring. For information about Thursday Night Racing simply Ask the RC.
