whaddya need to know, Pete? Most of us have been doing it for years and years.

Set up is now at a nice park (I'm tempted to say Eau Galle causeway?) with a ramp, walk/sail your boat up 200 meters to Perf Sail. Start and head south 25 miles to Sebastian and beach at another nice grassy park.

There's three bridges(?) to go under. One has a fishing dock that goes almost to the main span. I keep forgetting that little part until we're about 500 yds away (you can see it unless it's raining cats & dogs like last year. So rainy in fact that we missed the turn for the finish line slightly and almost lost line honors on day 1)

Captain Hirams resort is pretty cool, and I think there are one or two other places to stay.

Best part, you'll see pretty much anything that floats on two hulls there, from H-14 to N20, spin and non-spin. Mark brought his A cat last year.

With your F16, you could choose whether to go uni or sloop that morning I suspect, depending on conditions...

You will be happy you decided to sail this one, regardless of weather conditions. I've been through drifters and tropical storms on that course (Sometimes at the same event!) and even managed to break down on one or two of them. One of my three favorite regattas..
