Gobble! Gooble! Gobble! Folks, the annual NSC Turkey Trot Pursuit race and Thanksgiving Feast is this Monday Oct. 14th, 2013!
Awards: Leon’s TV Trophy – 1’st Overall, all classes. And Turkey prizes (Farm Boy Gift Cards) for the top three finishers in PHRF/JAM, and Dinghy/Catamarans.
Briefing (in the Members Lounge): 09:30hrs Copies of the Special Instructions about course and time will be issued.
First Warning Signal: 11:00hrs, First gun: 11:05hrs (for the slowest boat)
Post Racing: Turkey sandwiches with all the fixings will be provided for all participants while we all can “hand sail” the day at the bar. Our thanks to our volunteer member Turkey/Ham cookers and food preparers!
This is a pursuit race where the fastest boats start after the slowest boats. All kinds of boats welcome. Registered PHRF Handicaps are not required!
Basically it is once or twice around the racing circle marks and first boat home wins the day. Of course, the slowest boats get to start first to even things up and so on. Even if you never race, this is a fun day out and a great way to get out one more time before the end of the season, so please come out and join the fun. Thanks to Doug Patterson for organizing and running this event again – talk to him about your handicap numbers!
Hope to see you on the River!
