* Launch dates to be announced by Vice Commodore
* Boats hauled with masts up launch dates are all dependent on the depth in the
haul out slip and rudder clearance
* Mark your boats strap positions while the boat is on the cradle, might be a good
idea mark your cradle where your keel sets to make it easier when it is hauled.
