MARKS The marks shall be spar buoys, white in color. A strobe light will be attached to aid visibility.

THE START The Moonlight Regatta is a pursuit race. Start times for each type of boat are pre-computed. Find your boat in the schedule of start times, and look across to find your start time. You may start the race at that time or later, otherwise observing RRS 26.

START/FINISH LINE  Shall be between the main mast of the RC auxiliary and a mark or pin.  In the case of the RC acknowledging finishes from a launch, the finish will between the Mark-set boat’s helmsman’s seat and a mark.  When serving as the starboard end of the starting/finishing line, the RC boat is a mark of the course. Any auxiliary boat(s) which may be attached to the RC Boat including the attachments and fenders are also considered parts of the mark.

SHORTENING COURSE  The course shall not be shortened. Abandonment  The race may be abandoned at the discretion of the RC.  Abandonment will be announced on VHF Channel 69 The Finish  All finishes shall be made between the main mast of the RC Boat (or the helmsman’s seat of launch) and the finish mark, sailing from the direction of the previous mark of the course.  The RC shall acknowledge each boat’s finish.

Skippers should be prepared to hail or communicate by VHF Channel 69 to facilitate finishing boats in the dark.  A retiring boat shall inform the RC by either sailing past the RC Boat and notifying the RC they have withdrawn from the race, hailing another racing boat of their intention to withdraw requesting this other boat to inform the RC, or contacting the RC Boat via radio (VHF Channel 69).  The RC is presumed to be “on-station” and ready to record finishes even if the blue “on-station” flag is not displayed. The Start/Finish line is always “closed”.

Penalty System Penalties apply as described in Rules 44.1 and 44.2 with the following exception: if at the time of the rule infraction a spinnaker is hoisted, an offending boat can exonerate herself by fully lowering her spinnaker to the deck, completing one turn including one tack and one gybe in the same direction, and re-hoisting and flying her spinnaker.
