Moonlight Regatta-Spin Class

Folks:

The facts:
1.) One PHRF Spin boat was initially "finished" within the first time limit. All remaining PHRF Spin boats were finished within the latter time limit, but did not finish within the initial time limit.
2.) The race was scored.
3.) No protest or redress was filed.
4.) The initially "finished" boat later admitted they did not sail the proper
course (28.1).
5.) No PHRF Spin boat finished the race within the prescribed time limit.

The race is abandoned (32.1 (e) for any other reason directly affecting the safety or fairness of the competition) for the PHRF Spin class by the Race Committee, and consequently, the race is not officially scored for the PHRF Spin class.

The consequence is that no PHRF Spin boat will get scoring credit in the Long Distance Series for participating (which would have been the outcome, regardless, if no boat had "finished.")
"The 2006 Moonlight Race is abandoned (32.1 (e) for any other reason directly affecting the safety or fairness of the competition) for the PHRF Spin class (only) by the Race Committee, and consequently, the race will not be officially scored for
the PHRF Spin class."
