Mark,
Allow me to clarify for you...I am from Northeast NC. It is a rural area with the closest cities located in Hampton Roads (VA Beach was included in your Mid-Atlantic category).

With that being said, you completely missed the point. The Annapolis area is not a true reflection of the East Coast sailing scene and there are rarely A,B,C fleets at any event. I'm going to go now because I'm about to lose power. It's a good thing you are SO far away from this storm.
