The Tacoma Yacht Club held the redress/protest hearing on 11 December
2008. The decision of the Protest Committee was to abandon the race except for the Cruising
Classes and A Class, the multi hulls.
Some of the evidence supporting this decision was the starting times,
and the size of the flags which were too small to be seen by the majority of the fleet. TYC thanks all the sailors for their participation, patience and understanding with this issue.
