We have been participating in the NOOD's for the last few years on the West Coast. It has been a good marketing of the class in the San Francisco and the Seattle events. I have to say that there has not been much coming out of the San Diego event as we are relegated to Mission Bay Yacht Club and do not sail where the newly interested parties may sail. I would really like to see us sailing in the South Bay where the I-14s and Vipers sail.

If they are planning on putting catamarans on the same course as everyone else, in St Pete, it will be good for the class. I know that it is a bit more in regatta fees so this will have to be sold as your contribution.
