Okay troops-
Just talked to WF and the venue is set at Key Largo, racing to be on Nov 15-18th with measuring on the 14th.
Now, someone inquired into cost- That depends on how many there are-
SO- Please let me know BY JULY 5th your intentions-
Definitely coming, If at all possible, Probably, Maybe, Probably not, No way!

Thanks!

Kirt

Hi Kirt -
I will be there. Hope everyone can make it!

Well, I would like to give you a definate answer but I'm dependent on somebody else taking me on board. In effect willing to put up with me. So in my case somewhere between :

Maybe and probable

Where is the the response from FastcatMicheal and wife ?

I really do expect them to turn up and proof he deserves his internet handle !

Wouter

Hey Kirt,
We hope to make it.

Kirt,

Put me down as "if at all possible"....need crew with truck to agree to go.

Hi Kirt,

Because of the travel that would be involved and a lack of vacation time, my wife and I will probably not be able to make it.

Barring the unforseen, I'd love to go. Have we decided whether this will be a 3 or 4 day event for the F16's? Just curious.

How many boats should we set as the "minimum?"
In other words, if there are less than say 6 who are definite, should we have the first nationals at a more accessible venue and have it as a 2 or 3 day (vs. 5 day) event? I mean, I'd love to take advantage of this opportunity (thanks again, WF), but what would generate the highest attendance?
Just brainstorming.

You have my vote to bring it north.
Keys are nice but a long trip, even from St Pete.
Maybe D.I.Y.C.

Another idea would be Fort Walton Beach...maybe get the AK and TX crowd to come over.

On the naysayer front...getting clubs to run regattas ain't cheap...especially places like DIYC. Tagging on with the 18's definitely pays in that respect.
