Rod,
We don't race Grace. It is just the wife and I, right now. As I
understand it, Michigan only limits congregations of 10 or less so
technically you would be able to race with a crew.
It is just nice to have the normal spring routine to get the boat ready
for launch.
I have been monitoring whether the Queen's Cup or the Clipper Cup across
the lake races are cancelled. So far they have not been. The Queen's
Cup is late June and they will need to make a decision soon.
Complicating things is that the high lake levels have created a lot of
marina problems for fixed docks. Luckily we are in a marina with
floating docks.

Are you allowed to race and is it family only on the boat or do they
allow you have a physically distanced crew, like maybe 3?

Well, we've broken containment and evaded house arrest up here in the
great midwest. washed and polished the topsides today, VC-17 Thursday
and we will have all the exterior work ready for launch. Still need
to do some minor electrical upgrades to get things to my satisfaction,
but I can do those on rainy days. Our marina is working to catch up
on launching boats. His crew will work 7 days a week once boats are
ready for launch. We haven't completely lifted the house arrests but
once Queen Gretch allowed powerboat use the marinas decided that meant
that they could launch boats.
Both Friday and today while we were up there everybody seemed to be
acting responsibly and giving space to others.
The other good news we got last week was that UK Sails was able to
finish our new Main and Jib while on lock down. They stayed open
sewing masks and that alloweed them to complete some of the logged
orders. Now all we have to do is arrange a clandestine meeting to
take possession.
We may be able to get in the water yet. Although high Great Lakes
water levels may keep us from going anywhere except around our area.
