Me, I think I'm old school. A medal or brag-flag would be nice for the competitor(s), but you need something big for the perpetual trophy

The perpetual is a handmade memorial which will receive its own presentation. The Alter Qualifier trophies are US Sailing Medals. The Pumpkin Patch trophies are etched Pints. The best Pimped out boat will receive its own prize. Last years "pimped out" winner took a taste of his pimpin' prize and wondered out loud what second place pimpin' got? It has been a year, maybe he will bring the remainder of the 6-pack as this years prize. I'll try to remember to take pictures. Remembering will be difficult since I'll be focused on announcing next years regatta chair. Which will not be me!

Oooo...we got our work cut out for us...that's great attendance. It has always been the case that each qualifier sends it's top team to the event...or the next top team out of the top three that can attend. Last year, the conditions of the championship were modified to allow the largest qualifier to send their top two teams instead of one. So, if you guys do end up with the largest attendance, you get two spots instead of one.

I hate to be the hard-butt, but I feel like I should point this out because it has been a problem in the past; note that EVERYONE competing (skipper AND crew) must be US sailing members to race in the elimination / qualifier. The entry forms are checked and if folks are found that had inactive memberships at the time, they come out of the attendance figure and are obviously illegible to compete in the US Championship.

If anyone from the event wants to have a US Sailing website address to check anyone's membership standing as of the moment, send me a PM and I'll forward that to you. With a wireless connection, you can check memberships during registration.
