How many of those attending are interested in a ODR start? Once I enter, it looks like we have 5 U20s (although I think Don's preference is the Distance division with his PHRF sails), so we would have 4 in ODR mode? We would need one more to have a ODR fleet if we want one.

Tim, I had planned to do the distance race but if there is a chance of a OD fleet, I'll change to the W/L course. We are the largest fleet to date.
-
As we usually do OD at this regatta I will come prepared to do OD if the fleet decides to do so. For several years now i've thought the distance race would be fun, but willing to do either.
-
We have five boats. I vote ODR, but will be happy with whatever people decide. I entered ATB.

Tim, I am fine with either choice. The distance race runs around government bouys and has one race per day. The W/L course will have multiple daily starts.
