Actually, I think Jim Galloway was the first to coin the Nascat term. This was more due to how we fit in over at WRSC. I think some of the stodgy older members see us as the Nascar fleet. It kinda fits. Either way, we are a growing fleet and making a positive impact on WRSC.

Looking at the attached photo, showing them the 'Jaws' film during their lunch break obviously had an effect!! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Oops I did not mean we only have 4 kids in the program I meant my 4 kids are in the program.

To add to Todd's and Keith's description,

For me is started with us N20s being the BAHBs (Big butt Heavy Boats; coined by Special Ed) of WRSC. And in the first race of being new members of WRSC I received a little tap, their port side bow to my starboard side near the stearn, from another N20 on the starting line. I didn't protest. I looked at my crew and he said rubbin's racin' and on we went. The following Tuesday night while discussing the weekends racing and consuming beverages we apparently shouldn't have, Jim coined the phrase. It just fits us. Many of us are, well not skinny lets say, and we can be a bit loud, our boats are heavy and overpowered. Glad you enjoyed it, I'll pass it along to Jim, our Fleets idea guy.

Attached picture almost added to our NASCAT status.

Lets see your design, Jake.

not quite, but some of the older sailing establishments on the bay seem that way.

WRSC is West River Sailing club, located in the town of Galesville, MD on the Chesapeake Bay on the US East coast. find them here at: www.westriversc.org
