Carey,
I was planning to go down to the coast guard station in town tomorrow and do
what you suggested. Just make sure they are aware of it.
My main concern with the race is that someone with little or no experience
is going to try the race and get in trouble fast. The first leg of the race
is a three day 158 mile run from Kodiak to the Homer area which includes a
couple long open crossing. Not a place for the weak of heart.
Thanks
Bob
