Approved Sailing instructions as modified to reflect rule changes, namely:

15.3 new section on DNF races by those unable to complete within the time requirements
Those present signed up for RC dinners, those not present will be able to review the dates and choose one or two for the season.
Use of Race Committee boat and dockage. It was agreed to continue to use the Aquasport as long as it still works. With the possible opening of one slip on the floating docs it was motioned to work with the yacht club to pay for a slip. This would be convenient for the RC as well as continue to support the MYC. Zeb proposed allocating 500 dollars from the budget to be ear marked for repair s and maintenance of the RC boat, motion passed.
RC shall be used only for ensign related events with exceptions to include White rocks race or those races with granted approval from fleet captain.
