Chuck,
I can see Robi and Mary have a point, but then, so do you. Why not put up your site, using your chosen domain, but ensure that you have a nice, obvious link through to the 'international' site?
You could have a welcome and summary page, fixtures list and your blogs, but all the tech stuff, the news, the forums, class info and manufacturer listings would be on the main site.
I believe that Wayne Richards from Datchet, UK is working on something similar for the UK sailors.
Just my personal thoughts.
