Thanks everybody. Randy, if it were not too much trouble it would be great to see your spreadsheet. Dennis sent one that I could definitely use too. I have this great IRC version, but it doesn't apply for PHRF. Regatta Rasta man is pay to play so I am going to pass on that. We'll be doing time on distance with the course set up ahead of thin time.
Keep sharing your experience of you have more to add. Thanks again everyone! On Mon, Oct 10, 2016, 6:39 PM RANDY <randy.staff...@comcast.net> wrote: > Yeah we just had one yesterday.
