If you are from Minnesota, and your loggin is WBYCSail I would have to assume you are from the White Bear Yacht Club. I am from the Bald Eagle Yacht Club, for those that don’t know that is just across the Highway from White Bear. My wife is the Commodore for BEYC, so I guess you could say I am involved.

There is a introduction to Catamarans on Lake Waconia this weekend (June 25 and 26) I will have my F18 there both days. There will also Nacra 20s, F17, N6.0NA, P19mx, N5.5 and maybe a Hobie 20. There should even be a brand new Hobie Tiger there on Sunday. Notice I didn’t say F-16 or Super Cat. That’s because there are no F-16’s within hundreds of miles from here. And other then two SC22 on White Bear there aren’t any Super Cats racing either. Formula 16 is a great concept, but in this area you will be on your own for a long time. There is a good fleet of Hobie 20s that travel in Iowa, Nebraska and SD and points Southwest, but in Minnesota you will be lucky to find 3 of them racing. I could hook you up with someone looking to sell their Hobie 20 because they would rather be sailing F-18 or F-17.

If you want a fun boat, and a growing fleet Formula 18 is the obvious choice. There are used boats available, I could help with that too. Right now we have a eight of them in Minnesota, Iowa, and WI, and the numbers will continue to grow. Two years ago there was only one.

Drop me a private e-mail and I can give you further information.
