Rules Chairman Dick Durbin proposed the following language be added to the Tournament Scheduling rule:
"For tournaments scheduled on large lakes such as Lake Seminole or Lake Eufaula, the Club may elect to allow competitors to launch from ramps other than the location of the weigh-in. That determination shall be made at the meeting on the Tuesday before the tournament and must be approved by a majority of the members competing in the tournament. Competitors launching from ramps other than the weigh-in ramp will be allowed to arrive at the weigh-in location fifteen minutes after the scheduled ending time."
The rule change was approved by the members.
