    LUCHA LIBRE!
    We recognize that anytime that two or more sailboats are going in the same direction, they are usually trying to race each other! We encourage side-bets between competitors, with the loser paying the results to charity. Any bets - first to the mark, last to the mark, first to finish, least number of tacks, whatever! Announce your bet on the radio, talk a little trash, and make it fun.
    REMEMBER this is a fun race for charity. Dress up, use your squirt guns, joke around. It's all for the kids.
