The real fun will only begin when the F18's and F16's are running on the same course and having the same start. Not much fun racing a H17, dart 18 and a Prindle 15 like last year.

BUT !

Now that Matt/Gina are planning to get out to the Trades
And Seth and Kelly are in.
With Robi and Cary already signed in.
And Chuck looking to go 2-up as well as expressed in this post

Then we are looking at 4 double F16's already. 3 Blades and 1 Taipan.

Hollis attended last year so why not again
Then we have Kirby with a Taipan at Daytona
And Mike at Gulfport
Apparent their is a Paul with chucks old boat
And maybe Jeffrey from Georgia will be willing to make the trip this time.
Then we still have a John Hamlet with a Taipan in Florida
And we shouldn't forget about Jennifer and Kelly indeed
Maybe Ricks son will do another stint on Ricks Taipan ?
And isn't a new Blade going out to a Florida sailor within the next few weeks.
We also have a David at gulfport with a one-off F16 based on a mystere 5.0; Hey come along and show us your labour of love !

And these are just the boats I can remember from the top of my head.

Yeah, I'll say that there are a few boats out there in Florida !


I see that Seth has preregistered himself already, which after lasts years hick-up is a very admirable thing. Respect, Seth is showing the way. Don't be detered, get right back on that horse.

Although it may be an idea to kindly put in a request for the big course before the event starts. Just an idea.

Right now I don't see any A-cats being listed. Maybe a certain A-cat sailor can be swung to the dark side still !
