In the interest of keeping everybody healthy for the copulatory kerfuffle, all Hoofer sailors must follow the special C-Cup rules:
1. Alcohol of 80 proof or better must be carried at all times and used to wash touched surfaces and to rinse the mouth.
2. Non-consumable alcohol such as isopropyl shall not be carried because someone might drink it inadvertently.
3. In a pinch, beer may be used (that should work, right?)
4. Mouths should be rinsed regularly to kill germs and for fresh breath. Mount Gay Rum is recommended! (no swallowing if you're under 21)
Ladies, if during Commodore's Cup you are sexually assaulted at Hoofers, or touched, groped (see comments), or squeezed without your consent, please report it to the proper authorities. You could also describe your experience here for the benefit of others (you can do so anonymously).
Some male Hoofer Sailing instructors will try to cop a feel every chance they get. It can be as innocent as putting a hand on your shoulder, ostensibly to balance himself as he steps down into the cockpit, or it might mean squeezing down into the cabin when it's already occupied, or brushing your hand with his while demonstrating how to grind or tail a winch.
Male instructors will also undress you with their eyes (and do much more in their mind's eye). When you wear shorts or a bikini, you encourage it. It's why women in Islamic states wear less revealing attire. Sailing instructors have been known to slip into the Lake Lab for quick release when no one else is around (sorry, we can't be any more explicit than that).
However, if a guy you don't like is just looking at you or saying "hi" to you, there isn't much you can do, although in the past some women have made false reports that were effective.
Libel and slander are a cornerstone of Hoofer operations.
So let's everyone have fun and not get caught!
