Sign up for Mark Boat

It's time to sign up for mark boat duty! 

Everyone can do mark boat duty. If you are in the top half of your class, you must sign up for mark boat duty.

What do you need?

• A boat - I see you out there in your boat. I know you have one.
• A crew - usually two people works best.
• Patience - It takes a bit of time, but we have fun!

Sign up >HERE<

You will receive an average score for the series if you serve as mark boat. That way, you will not be hurt by doing mark boat!

You can get a friend to do mark boat for you. You're responsible for getting someone out there in a boat to help set marks.

I will start assigning boats if you don't sign up by May 1st. Pick your favorite week now by picking it yourself!
