For those who want to bring in the “New Year” sailing and live near mid Florida there is always the Tampa Bay Catamaran Sailors Inc. “TBCSI Hangover Regatta”.
It’s a one day (Sunday this year) distance race held off the Dunedin Causeway going out Hurricane Pass around some Islands and back. See the NOR at http://www.tampabaycatsailors.com/nor's.htm click the first NOR on the list.

The weather prediction is calling for a cool 78 degree air temperature and 58 degree water temp and Partly Cloudy. We, thin bloods, will be bundled up real good for this cold weather.
