Was it Gulfport YC that stipulated that in order to keep your mast-up storage spot (at a screaming deal) you had to get out and sail in one of their regattas (race or cruise) at least 2x per year or something?

I thought that was genious for several reasons:
- moves dead boats
- lawn maintenance around those boats that rarely move
- keeps people (owners, non-owners) somewhat in contact and involved
- creates buzz (razzing the owners who don't sail, etc)
- keeps the club membership from slipping into a social club with no active sailing.
