I'm getting ready to attend the F-18 Nationals at Lake Carlyle in September (provided that all the arrangements work out with my prospective partner). Any suggestions on how to prepare? I'm mainly interested in what I need in the way of special clothing, spares, tools, support stuff, that kind of thing - obviously the boat must be in top condition and we need to get in as much training time as possible. Information particular to the venue is of interest.
