There's no wind and a bunch of bada$$ boats sitting rigged and ready. How about somebody go around and take some pics, and post them, of set-ups and other cool stuff. I'd like to see a pic of Ben Moon's Nikita, myself. Please, pretty please?

just got a call from the islander. Still sitting on the beach - no wind.
Every boat down there has either curved foils, bendy mast, or some other latest and greatest carbon upgrade...

This is the Worlds venue for this time next year isn't it? Hope it's not typical pattern!

Ben was planning to leave his Nikita in Europe so he could do Garda in June/July. It might be somewhere in the video of the last two races - probably still up on the Worlds website.

At 7:30 a.m. no wind yet,but the forecast is for wind this afternoon. Been coming down to the Islamorada regattas for over 10 years, first time I've seen 2 days in a row without some type of wind.

Hang in there Fred. Y'all need to sacrifice Ron to the wind gods and all will be good.
