Re: letter number placement on mainsail?

["Steven Harrington" <a_ski_racer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all:

As race comitte in Florida this spring here are my observations:

-place the numbers at different hights on either side of the sail

 or they will definitely be hard to read

-use black numbers - they were more visible than the red ones.

Since I had the opportunity to watch the boats close up and

from a distance I would highly recommend paying attention

to the above. You wouldn't want to be denied a good result

because someone couldnt' read your number, or get someone

elses OCS!

Lets protest that guy if he ever shows up with those sails in a regatta. :)

But, then again I dont really think it is that important. Ken just slap those numbers
on there and go sailing.

I was going to place the group like the photo below

 

Fort Desoto 2/05

 

$Remembering different variations I'm glad you were able to clarify the class rules.

Excerpt from Greg's post,

H1.3 POSITIONING

Class insignia, national letters and sail numbers shall be positioned as follows:

(a) Except as provided in (d) and (e) below, class insignia, national letters and sail numbers shall when possible be wholly above an arc whose center is the head point and whose radius is 60% of the leech length. They shall be placed at different heights on the two sides of the sail, those on the starboard side being uppermost.

Thanks Ken 028
