I didn't even kon about it, i have been kinda wanting to do that particular race but have yet to run across anythign with dates and what-not. Incedently Tim and anyone else in Cali, If your interested in going to the San Luis Obispo/Morro Bay area for halloween weekend, 3oth and 31st. There is this oktoberfest thing, nothing really official, but we like ot get an many boats onthe bay as we can. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BRING YOUR OWN BOAT. We have about 8 and not enough people to sail them all. They aren't all in tip-top shape, but there all sailable, All NACRAS except two prindle 19's. Tim, I have a 5.2 you could borrow if you wanted to come down.
