WHC - purjehdittavan radan numero

Post by alex »

8.1 [...] Viimeistään varoitusviestin yhteydessä nostetaan valkoinen viestikyltti jossa on purjehdittavan radan numero.

Is there a secret weapon or trick how you people read the number? I found out that I have to almost run aground Haukilahti beach to read the number for sure. And it seems that only Subbota is blind... Is there an SMS track number news subscription or something?.. :)

I don´t know, glasses perhaps or see an optician :) binoculars are handy, and also note the color of the flag which denotes the reverse or normal order of the marks to be rounded.

The color I see - I am not colorblind. Just blind. :oops:

Unfortunately it seems that the old boards have disappeared and RC has had to do some type of DIY posters/papers whatever to present the race course.

Hopefully the old boards can be found somewhere or new ones will be made.

The course could be mentioned by VHF or even twitter but I've already heard some complaints from race purists that this would be unfair to those who do not have VHf or don't follow twitter (i.e. Outside Help). So there is very little room for development unless we change the SI to such that twitter is official method of communication and VHF is mandatory.
