Its 2 Friday, UP TO 4 on Saturday and 2 on sunday.
As discussed at last years AGM due to the cracking conditions on the Saturday and early finish (all ashore and in the bar by 230pm) due to a good RO we could have got a 4th race in.
The extra one isn't on Friday, the reason being some people might not make the Friday, so thats the two discards.
Its not on the Sunday as it delays getting away from the venue (bearing in mind after racing 'we' still have to sort out the prize giving)
Its penciled in for the Saturday, but is totally weather and time permitting - no one has anywhere else to go on Saturday so finish time isn't as critical and with 35-40 minute races it can be done without spending 12 hours on the water. The shorter more race format also means if you balls up one start you aren't following everyone around for an hour and a half in a procession, more races more chance to do better (or worse as the case may be)
BUT if it doesn't get run on Saturday it won't get carried over to Sunday. The only reason there would be more than two races on Sunday would be to make the minimum number of races to make it a Nationals
*edited to add*
Its also an experiment, if it turns out a crap idea we can try something different or go back to the same routine next year
