Posts: 1,459 Annapolis,MD | If anybody here happens to be in an area where you can get Chesapeake Bay Magazine - check out the January issue! Our little rag-tag outfit has a feature article, and Commodore Rodger Holmes has the cover on his ARC-22 with Mike Murphy crewing. If you're in the Chesapeake Bay area and haven't checked out this magazine, do so, lots of local stuff to enjoy. But we've made a convert out of one of their reporters/editors, so that's even better! Check it out - Chesapeake Bay Magazine Click on the "Current Issue" link to see the cover. Also, on the main page of the site there are a few pics rolling, the F-16 is John McLaughlin.

I'm new here and just thought I'd add a comment concerning the house lighthouse near Dutch Ship Island. I believe he's still wrapped up in court proceedings about that...last I heard County said tear it down. But what do I know?! I'm a live and let live believer anyway. Damn Libertarians!

Scott They let him keep the house and everything else if he took out the lighthouse and pool. Influential people argued on his behalf. There are still people trying to get it all torn down, so it may not be over. But he's a connected developer, and he definitely knew it was a safe gamble to ask for forgiveness instead of asking for approval. Not advocating one way or the other on that, just commenting on the different levels of enforcement. Live and let live would have benefited us after we complied with the first set of requirements... Yes, I'm a little bitter. But all that aside, thanks to Ann and Chesapeake Bay magazine for coming out and doing a piece on us! | | | Re: West River Cat Racing in Ches Bay Mag

Posts: 396 Annapolis Md. | Are we the luckiest guys in the world or what? We have not one but two cat clubs in a real nice 350 year old maritime village that is surrounded by water. Many thanks to Roger, Kieth and the many others who have made this happen for 20 years. Many thanks to Chris F. for getting the A Cats accepted into the one design sailing club and Chris9 for doing the same with the N-20s. It goes to show that if you want something to happen don't sit around and wait for someone to do something. YOU are someone, get busy. I have volunteered to work on getting more breeze for this season coming up, last year sucked. Here's the links to our clubs if interested. Ed http://www.wrcra.org/http://www.westriversc.org/
