2010 Tybee 500 Race Planning Complete.

A few noteworthy items as teams begin their final preparations for the 2010 Tybee 500; the Coast Guard, Fish and Wildlife Commission and NASA permitting is in final review.  It is important to note that there is a planned launch during our Cocoa Beach to Daytona Beach leg.  Security at the Cape will be particularly tight.  The race has been put in jeopardy for the last two years by teams that violated the exclusion zone, which is clearly delineated in the Sailing Instructions. Race administration is advised that such a violation cannot be allowed this year. We are on our last chance with NASA officials.  

Teams are hereby informed that a violation of the exclusion zone will result in immediate disqualification.  There will not be a time penalty assessed as in the past.  Race administration regrets that it has come to this, but continued violations of the NASA security zone have jeopardized the entire event.  There will be no excuses.

At least in the number of boats entered! Congratulations to the team for entering four Nacra 20's in this years race.
