Sorry, I won't be able to make it. Just realized the MDR Halibut Derby is that weekend.

What are the boundaries for the Mission Bay tournament?

EDIT: After further research on the Plastic Navy forums, I see that the whole bay is in bounds including the channel.

The boundaries are now west of the 2 Ingraham bridges.
