Anyone Here Ever Enter MacMan?

I plan to participate. Any words of wisdom? I am approaching it as a cruise with an overnight leg. I am new to racing and I want to gain more experience.

Hey M27, I'm in the same sich you are - starting to learn the whole racing thing.

Check out the Global Regatta thread and plot a course for your body of water.

Then let's race!

Yeah - just follow the instructions in that last post and get me the coords.. And make sure it's exactly 5 or 10 nm depending on whether you want a short or long course.
