Am I Ready?

The start is in the vicinity of Castle Hill Light. I have been puzzled that the starting line is in the channel. We are not alone in this body of water. What are ships to do? The location makes it very easy for people to watch from shore.
                                                                                        

These are photos from the 1970 start. A navy destroyer was the committee boat and Brenton Reef Tower was the pin. If you were not aboard the Navy ship or had your own boat you would not see the start.
One would think I am leaving for more than four days the way I am fussing about here. Making sure everything is in order.
I am going to listen to Peter Isler speak about using Expedition, the navigation program, this evening.
