We just had a Fast and Fun Event in Kirkland, Washington today. See http://www.ussailing.org/multihull/fast&fun.htm
We used our five Hobie Waves from Sail Sand Point in Seattle, and offered free sailing from noon to 6PM. Do not have the final count, but we had well over 150 people out on the water. Our skippers included young sailors from Sail Sand Point, in addition to our regular Hobie Cat racers. About 20 volunteers took part. The wind was light, and luckly, Hobie Cats Northwest, our local dealer, had 12 Hobie Kayaks used to also get people on the water. This is the second year Sail Sand Point has presented this program for Kirkland.

US SAILING no longer has the Hobie Cat Waves and windsurfers making the tour, and it is up to local sailing organizations to continue this program. This is our fourth year having Fast and Fun Events in Seattle.

If you have similar Fast and Fun events in your area, you will see the results.
