I was in New Orleans, giving a talk on fleet and calss newsletters (along with Sue Hofacker from the 470 Class). Also sat in on a great presentaiton by Fried Elliot on marketing one-design classes with multimedia (especially photography).

Was on a plane by 5:00 PM and home at 9:30. (Snow - bleech!)

US Sailing One-Design Sailing Symposium.

With the exception of a lady from the Isotope class, I was the only multihull sailor in the group. Had dinner on Friday with Dave Reed (editor of Sailing World) - that was pretty cool, even though it was tough to talk over the Zydeco band playing.
