Thanks Travis. Can you post a redlined version that shows the proposed changes?
This is the summary that was in the email from Emily Jones regarding the upcoming annual class meeting.

Summary of Updates:
•   The rules have been edited and updated many times over the last 30 years.  Class member Treez Decker labored to improve the consistency of the formatting and numbering.  Thus we are submitting the entire document for approval with this change and 3 other changes of note.  (Thank You Treez!)
•   Crew weight has not changed, but the process for a waiver using the forum was clarified for simplicity. (Article OD-II)
•   The Mast Rake language remains but is now a recommended reference.  It will not be measured at class events.  (OD-III 7.4)
•   Electric outboards now meet the requirements for having an outboard on the boat. (OD-VIII 2)

The three days of racing for the Pacific Coast Championship was an awesome experience.  From racing around Alcatraz dealing with currents and strong winds and two days of sailing around the buoys, the racing was close, tactical, and exciting.  Upwind racing took patience to keep going through the waves, but the downwind surfing contests were fast with boats regularly showing 12-14 knots on the GPS speedos.  Rooster tails everywhere and lots of great stories at the debriefs each day.  We got in 8 races with one throwout.  Team 222 with Travis Gregory at the helm came in first, Michael Eisenberg on Toon Town 2nd, and John Andrew on Cinderella Story was third out of the seven boats on the line.  Their crews really did all the work on this regatta, with lots of action on spinnaker sets and douses, as well as helping keep the boats flat during the upwind legs. 

The Totally Dinghy racing up next on October 4 at the Richmond Yacht Club.  It is one design for our class if we get 5 boats.  Don't let the name confuse you...U20s have been regularly racing in the winter dinghy series along with the 25 ft Wabbit and this is a continuation of that tradition.  Two boats are already signed up.  It will be one day of racing and in somewhat calmer waters than the Championship racing.

And the finale of the 2025 season on the Bay is the Great Pumpkin at the end of the month which can not be missed with floating pumpkins, buoy and distance racing, and a GREAT party as well.

As always, contact me with any questions!

I have a single foot long rudder pin and wish to replace it with two shorter ones.  Will these replacements work?  Guessing its 1/2 inch diameter.

What does anyone use to clean Hydrilla from keel? Our lake is suffering severe bout of this tenacious weed. Pole? Rope?
