[quote=tami][quote=robpatt]but the link says going "inside" the island... presuming the north side, while ya'll going to take in the privacy of the southern shores...

Please reread the notice... the link sez:
"However, weather conditions may require a shorter course to be sailed. This course will be inside the island."
The course will only be inside the island if the weather is rough. Otherwise it will circumnavigate the island.
I'm not running the race but I did do (and score) it last year. The course will likely be: start>ICW2>Range between ship and cat>A>B>C>D>ICW7>finish.
Approx. coordinates for the marx of interest:
Start/finish area (#2PCchannel): 30º 18.57, -89º 14.22
ICW 2: 30º 16.85, -89º 05.10
Range tower: 30º 14.56, -89º 01.98
CatIChannel A: 30º 10.81, -89º 07.41
CatIChannel D: 30º 12.54, -89º 10.97
ICW 7: 30º 14.72, -89º 11.73
Most all these are line of sight except from start to 2, and 7 to finish, prolly can't see those. Navigate to finish by landmark of large white/silver roof on shore, we call it the slip'n'slide (the A-frame style Catholic church)
