NOR for Maui Practice: 01/08 @ 1800 utc

Description: Fast* paced Slalom or 'Figure 8', using a mid course 'Gate'

Start Line: is between M5 and M1 - SW is OCS
This also comprises the 'Gate'.

Course:
M5-M1 Start Line
M3 - Round to Port
M5-M1 Pass, heading NE, between Gate
M2 - Round to Starboard
M5-M1 Pass, heading SW, between Gate
M3 - Round to Port
M5-M1 Finish Line

(Estimated) Time En-route (ETE): 2 hours
Course Length: 15 nm
Start/Finish Line & Gate:
- Length (Width) = 0.4 nm
- Bearing to Leeward (Port) Pin = 147.5
Course Bearings:
Downwind = 240
Upwind = 60

Notes:
  • OCS = On Course Side (ie wrong side at the start)
  • Line bearing is from M5 to M1
  • * Well... fast for 12 kn TWS!
  • Course bearings may be tweaked prior to the start to reflect minor changes in forecast winds
  • Gate just means: pass through the start/finish line each leg...

This course should reward pre-start attention & thought... (plan out your strategy before 1800!) ;-)

Enjoy!
