The SI's have a finish "between a red or orange marker on the Richmond Yacht Club race platform and buoy G “7” Fl G 4s in Point Potrero Reach,"

I think I found "7", but can somebody point out where the RYC race platform is? I've never used it as a mark.

Thanks!

Mike, the race platform is near the second (lower) spot on your chartlet - right at the corner of the breakwater. It's just in front of the Express 27's bow in this picture, and then there's a close up of it with RYC Beer Can guru Eric Arens on it, kicking off our Beer Can season last week.

The buoy is affectionately known as "Killer Green" at RYC. When you pass inside of it you'll be close enough to the platform that it will be obvious (Killer Green is behind the Express in the photo so fairly close-in).

After the race RYC invites racers to the club for dinner and a movie. Take a left past the platform and see you there. I think Allen or Al will have more info later. It's not the CYC and all are welcome.

Any word from the front about start order? Are the doublehanded express 27's starting as usual with Flag J? SDK

[skatzman]

Start Order and class breakdowns just posted, thanks! SDK

Could I get some clairification on the date for the trophy meeting? Usually, or should I say traditionally, they were held the 2nd Wednesday after the race, or 11 days after the race. SIs state Wednesday May 14, so 4th Wednesday? But May 14th is a Thursday.

Also usually, or should I say traditionally, there was a very hand list of all the race/trophy meeting/skippers meeting dates to be found on the main SSS web site. So easy to find. Very nice. I miss it. Like I missed the last trophy meeting.

There was an error in the SIs, the trophy meeting is on Wednesday, April 29, as previously posted on the Racing Page.
