THIRD, Vanimals, please go to the athletic field house and get our tent for this weekend, leave in Bus 4.

• simple boat handling drills, the usual. Finalize preparations for weekend teams
• Special “DAGF Team Race.” After rounding weather offset, teams must sail Downwind WHILE dancing. The teams are: FJ’s/laser vs. 420’s. Music will activate when first boat rounds mark, and judges will score teams on the leg. In addition to simple team race scoring, PHRF/Portsmouth handicap scoring, with all valuable Extra points added for teams that employ any in-boat, or team choreography at all. Normal dance moves judges expect to see are, but not limited to: “the chainsaw”, the Robot, “churning butter”, any break dancing/thriller stuff, ridin’ the horse, gangnam style, of course the floss. Course is a 4 leg course, finishing downwind. Second downwind leg is the ultimate chance to add points, and finish off your opponents with your style. No dancing downwind brings severe penalty. This is a team race on a fleet race course, and your ability to work together as a team will be the difference.
