Tom,

I haven't heard anything about the Canadians, but there is a rumor that at least 2 more 17s from the East Coast (New Jersey?) have said they will be there. 16 is almost as good as 17! ...and the biggest F17 Fleet ever (I think). Good luck to all that are going to PRW!

Here are the front runners that have signed up!
Mark Batchelor...won NA Championships (on 17s) each time he has sailed them.
Chris Sawyer...defending Champ
Bill Gillespie...a point away from beating Sawyer last year and has lost significant weight
and everybody's favorite...Bob Curry...first year on the boat but beating Sawyer in Florida all year.

Should be GREAT FUN for everyone!
