I would have to agree with the majority of the posts primarily due to the local factors on that holiday weekend. If you recall, we usually avoid sailing that weekend due to the number of power boats and jet skiis on the water. Not to mention the jacked up motel/condo rates and traffic in FWB/Destin, plus the general increased boat/recreation going on at the club itself. Also would strongly take into account the Slip to Ship as 20 plus years is a lot of history.

As far as alternatives (because I agree a different time of the year would be great) earlier in May might work out. No apparent conflicts, wind should be fairly stable out of the SE or SSW, and you could then try to get me after I kick your butt at the Mug Race.
