RULES:
Races shall be governed by the Racing Rules of Sailing for 2005-2008, USSA prescriptions and the International Laser Class Rules, except as modified by the following notice, and/or sailing instructions.

RULE MODIFICATION
A boat that may have broken a rule of RRS Part 2 may take a penalty by making a 360 degree turn. This changes RRS 44.1.
The Friday Night series is intended to be informal, educational, and fun. In that spirit, no protests will be heard. In the event of committing a foul, competitors are expected to comply with RRS Part 44.1, subject to the
modification above.

SCHEDULE:
Friday evenings, May 2th through September 26th. First warning at 6pm. Racing to continue as long as conditions and daylight permit.

COURSES:
Normally windward/leeward, but an occasional triangle at the RC's discretion. Racing area is just off the Club waterfront. Courses are short (10-20 minutes) to maximize races per night.

REGISTRATION:
Registration is not required for WRSC members. Non-WRSC members may register and participate with the
following options:
1. Sail up to three Friday nights as a guest of the club.
2. Additional participation will be $10 per evening, or $100 for the entire season.

Registration may be accomplished on any Friday evening, from 5pm to 5:45pm. If you would like to register early,
see the INFO AND ENTRIES section below.

SCORING:
Low point system. Worst race finish for any single evening dropped when five or more races are sailed that evening. DNS equals number of competitors for the day plus 1 point. Race Committee duty equals your average daily score for all race days you competed in.
