June 13 Race is Course #3 (Gordon Pass to Naples Pier, finish at Gordon Pass) Tequila Race Course Master Pursuit Starts Suggestion For Skippers: Monitor VHF #72 For races with no formal race committee, if you enter the LAT/LON for each mark the start/finish line and rounding marks will be clearly defined on your chart plotter which will make it easier and more fun for everyone. Take pictures of your chart plotter (with time and location) for the start, each mark rounding and finish so the race committee can see you rounded properly if there is a challenge.
