Top 3 boats.

1. Bob Curry - Nacra F17
2. Mark Smith/Bubba Barberi - Nacra 20

Thanks to all 15 sailors for coming out and braving the light air regatta.

Keep sailing,
Bob wink

Congratulations! Now....are ya goin'? What type of boat is it being held on this year. I heard it was Hobie 16's with chutes? Come on tell me it isn't true?

When is the Alter cup going to be held on a one man boat.....like oh say .... an F 17?

Thanks Eric!!! grin

Right now, boat and venue is pending and should know something by the end of the week. As far as a singlehander, you will have to ask the AC chairman/committee. I think it is time for a one person boat to show up! How cool would that be???

It's official!

From the open forum...
As of this morning the Alter Cup Committee has voted, the 2009 US Multihull Championship will be held on Australian High Performance Catamarans Viper F16 in central Florida sometime in the fall.

And the sailing is in 2-up mode.

You guys can still be the first to get an 1-up Alter Cup boat.

In our case (F16's in 2007 and now 2009) I don't think the 1-up option was ever seriously considered as the 2-up use of the boat is just so much more attractive from an organisational and financial point of view. 1-up sailing in the Alter cup final event seems to run into some serious issues.

Still, I too would like to see a real Mano-a-Mano version of the Alter Cup; meaning 1-up. So if you guys can pull it off in any of the next years then GREAT !
