What kind of mark did you use @ 4 boat-lenghts.Was it legal to touch? Was it near the rhumb line from the last mark? I think I would like to add this feature to the Palm Beach Gardens Regatta in February 10-11.
Think how warm it is here in Feb vs. all that FROZEN water around the country.Come on down.

it was a small mark, 1/4 size of the actual mark I guess.

it was placed so the anticipated cource of the majority of the fleet could use it to gauge the ovelap at 4 BL

It was legal to hit

Only drawback is if you have a wind shift
