We love to watch Duck Dodge from China Harbor with hundreds of sailboats out there. It looks pretty competitive from where we sit. Sail on!

"Duck Dodge," is called that as one of their racing rules (yeah, they have rules) is doing 2× 360° penalty if you impede the progress of any duck, or add 10 minutes to your lap time.
I don't think there were penalties for picking up markers, as the Committee Boat drops anchor and rafts up so early, they rely on some later boats to recover them.
Sad 'Shoot the Moon' was off your list of boats. She did weekly 16 moon salutes as the raft broke up. We often were on Stiv'n's Grand Illusion Owens Express Cruiser, or Andy Greene's boat which served as the raft's dance floor.
