LD #6 Race from Hammond Sunday 8/09 — course correction

August 04, 2026

The text describing the LD #6 Race from Hammond Sunday 8/9 on page 41 in the race book is in error. The final leg is from the “R” mark to a finish leaving SA7 to port. There is no port rounding of the Crib. This is to avoid crossing the Verve Cup courses. The drawing of the course on page 41 is correct. The correct course description text is:

Course: Hammond Intake Crib to starboard rounding of Northeast Shoal Lighted Buoy (R), to port rounding of Indiana Shoal Buoy #2 (D), to starboard rounding of Northeast Shoal Lighted Buoy (R), to a finish at SA7 leaving the mark to Port.
Distance: Nautical Mileage: 19.5
