Great show of support for a club that really pulls off a fun event year to year.

Bumping the attendance from 61 boats for three years running to 94 ... Wow!

What is contributing to the big big turnout?

Syracuse and 204 have TWO challengors for the huge event award this year (In 07 I think you have to give it to the A cat worlds with 100 of the same class and say they kicked butt) Rochester's big aniversary regatta in August could be really big and 08 Spring Fever is at 94 boats.

Great to see every body focus their attention on a few events!

I'm getting there Thursday. Hoping to splash and chase off all the bad juu juu that found its ways into my boat from Florida.

I'm glad to report that ALL the bad Juju has been ground away and the first layers of gelcoat are applied.

The jury is still out on the Duratec. They typical gelcoat orange-peel may have been slightly better but it's still pretty lumpy. I've opened up the orifice on my paint gun from 1.4mm to 1.6mm to see if it will stop the spattering. Two tone gel coat repair is an interesting feat. I'm wondering if I shouldn't have tried to mask both sides of the color joint instead of overlapping...who knows. With any luck, this stuff will completely kick tonight so I can start on the yeller. (thank goodness it's warm!).

THank you Jake for getting rid of the juu juu. I burnt my clothes I was wearing at the time, and took my tiller extension to a Priest to exorcize the daemons.

You completed the circle of purification :P

If the Wetas came, it would be well over 100 <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

It involves dancing, a fire and two vaccuum cleaners. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

That second part will probably happen all by itself.
