I'd just have told you if ye'd asked. I'm meant to be more sarcastic than secretive

I know there is a return race on Sunday (I actually paid for both days), but talking with folks is sounds like nobody will be there for Sunday.

If the wind holds out of the south/southeast, we'll have no chance to run with our chutes. I know at least one team that plans to do the return Sat afternoon. Anyone else for doing the return Sat afternoon?

Also, I've heard MYC is not very beach cat friendly (no beach?). Might wind up setting up at FYC.....

JMAC,
All the beachcats are staging out of FYC. We'll be set up noon Friday. NO to Saturday return, but you can bet your butt we'll be partying on the island Saturday after the race. Come set up with all of us at FYC.

Who? We will have our trailers and vehicles on the island. I can provide a ride or shuttle if needed. Call me if you need details. BTW, we are getting together for dinner Friday night, would be nice if you joined us.

FYC it is then.

The dude with the Carbon Fiber boat from Ft Walton doesn't want to pull up on the rocky beach with them thin skin pontoons. Besides, if we have 10-15, we'll be to the island in about 3 hours, and could easily make the spin run back in a couple more, get the boats on the trailers and still make it out to the island in time for rum runners. We'll talk about it Friday when we get there, and make the call before the skipper's meeting Friday night at 8:00. Sounds like a good party at MYC Friday night.

You staying over Sat night somewhere?

Just remember well be shuttling the trailers and vehicles to the island sometime Friday. I'm working on a condo on the island, but not yet confirmed.

Nah, we're good. I agree with his assertion a/b sailing back on Sat. 10-15 out of the SE, it will be a QUICK ride back to FYC.

Brian hasn't had an I20 since the black boat.... That was... ~5 years ago?

Sorry, but that comment was directed at John. All the same, this is going to be a blast. Can't wait to see the CFR20 out, I'm really fond of that boat.

I don't follow! I meant Brian was concerned for his CFR hulls. I am all about the N20 man. After we cross the finish I'm gonna sheet in and said her right across that sandbar and into the gulf! Bows of steel....but, uh, dude we snapped the boards and ground off the bottoms of the hulls....awe man, hey check out that bikini!

lol, actually the boards are really tough... ask me about a high speed grounding at Tybee island where the crew (not me) didn't manage to get either the Spi down or the daggers up while leading the second place boat by 5 min plus... and then losing the leg win and record....

So that's how you throw the crew under the bus... noted and thanks.

I'm usually on the front of the boat but at that time I was the ground crew who was trying to kick and free the now wedged dagger out of the hull. Only placing blame where it's due in this case wink (any trying to attest to the durability of an I20 daggerboard!)
