Hello Rick

Here is a little background about cat sailing on the bay.
We have several active catamaran fleets. Some may be called hobie fleet xx EG Hobie fleet 32 or 54 or 196 however they all operate as a catamaran club and proudly display their various histories. They are joined by CRAC and WRCRA as well as the Solomons cat sailing club. We work together to support the sport of cat racing and each does their part. You will be welcome to race whatever boat strikes your fancy now and into the future. Feel free to contact any of the above but I would not make much about the hobie stuff.

The A boat fleet is growing on the bay and Chris Ford, Tony Arends or Tracy Oliver (Va Beach) can fill you in. They had 10 boats at Cambridge last weekend. The race all of the other single handers and get scored as a fleet. We also have several Taipan -F16's on the bay which are also good single handers. Dan Berger has a couple of F14's aka H14's with headsails in Va Beach and they have a great H17 fleet in New Jersey.

We have a huge regatta schedule in the region (perhaps it too much) at which any boat that you bring will be welcome.

With respect to CRAC....we haven't changed much... just fatter!

With respect to odd ball boats...There really isn't any such thing... The days of 20 boat one design fleets are long gone... run what you brung and go racing.

Good luck
Mark
