Ouch JDubbs! I went out to Nacra 20 NAs in MI two years ago so it's not every year! Long Beach was just a $ issue. I'm stretching it to go to FL in a few weeks.
Only you Floridians/ Californians (not sure which one you are anymore) would be popsicles... Canadian Nationals were in Toronto in Sept. and it wasn't bad at all!
Doesn't anyone else have a busy summer regatta schedule that would favor a late or early season event?
