Offshore racing is more often than not a demolition derby as boats making the left turn on an M course either run into each other or travel too far and get into the front chute making head on collisions. Then there is the.......who has the right of way when the boats are traveling straight towards the bank about to make the left turn. At that point the boat closest to the left turn buoy has the inside lane so people are changing lanes on the way to that buoy. After looking at the IMPBA rule book I noticed there are 3 approved courses. An M course, a triangle, and a square. The triangle and square courses do not have left turns. Since Offshore M courses are a demolition derby and our boats don't like to turn left, why are we not running the two approved courses that do not require a left turn?
