Do not assume that... We set the course so as to accommodate our friends with fishing boats, too. Your only issue will be the wind direction.. if its rockin onshore, it's going to be lumpy.
But, you don't have to go to all the stops to get a full deck of cards. Anyone who decides to do just the protected stops will be able to pick up extra cards at the finish! All entrants will end up with a full deck, no matter what.

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I know how "lumpy" Saginaw Bay can get. BTW, I don't have a fishing boat; Just a low 80s 22 1/2' Donzi. I'll have to kick this around and see if it's doable!

Sorry, didn't mean to imply you did, I saw the Donzi on your Avatar... We have a bunch of Bass Boats that go faster than they should, due to no free board. that's what I was referring to.
