No Problem getting participants. At this point the juniors that want to come should be poised at the computer for registration. We have already got over 10 teams contacting us with their interest.
I know that this may not be optimal for everyone. I was informed not long ago about hosting the event and it was hard to figure out where it could go in an already really busy schedule for our Yacht Club. The event in France is in the summer and the winner will need to make arrangements for their trip as well. This event is not a qualifier for ISAF it is for a great trip to France.
Sorry about school, sorry about weather up north, sorry about late notice, sorry about registration not up when you heard about the event...NOT sorry about having the event in Long Beach where the catamaran sailor numbers keep increasing. This will be fun for those involved. If you would like to come and help out maybe we can find a place for you.
Later,
Dan
