Other Friends, ie. Ventucky friends,
Wondering if any of you have input on this year's Ventucky Cup? The first proposal received from John Deere country offered the following parameters:
Three boats per club. Each boat's rating would be multiplied by a coefficient of 1.25. So let's see...if one team had a boat that rated 0 (take a Farr 40 for example), that boat gets NOTHING, still rates 0. Then lets say someone brings a 4kt shitbox that rates 200. His new rating is 250, giving him a bonus of 50 seconds per mile. That sounds BRILLIANT!
The format was fine last year. Everything was great except for the PRO who gave us not one but two courses that were so short boats finished in 15 minutes which he failed to notice as he was munching on some pork rinds at the time. I am sure THAT will be fixed this year. So can we just come up with a normal racing format and not bastardize the whole thing?
