Anacortes | Only seeing one F18 registered for the Alamitos Bay midwinters regatta... Anyone know how many boats are likely to be there?

Anacortes | We are traveling down to pick up a mast in Watsonville and are thinking about bringing the Tiger to race at this event. How many boats are likely to be there?

After watching Lionel Messi play, I realize I need to sail harder.

Long Beach, California | You can get away with a good 3/2 wetsuit, but they (along with dry suits and spray tops) are old tech. Go with microfleece and titanium. I love my Zhik SuperWarm Skiff - less weight, no windage.

Clermont, FL, USA | You're gonna let Ricky play at ABYC? The club will never be the same.

Long Beach, California | That was a really fun weekend - I'm really happy we had such a good start to the season. Hope everyone made it home safely and without incident, including speeding tickets with trailers in the California passes (DAMHIK). Results and pictures are up on the ABYC website.Great meeting with the core volunteers for the F18 Worlds following the awards; we're on track for a pretty epic event.

Seattle,Wa | You guys showed no mercy for the weary travelers from the Pacific Northwest. It's always a tough crowd down there. But we love the sand and warm water. We'll have to see how you guys handle the 55 degree water whilst dodging drift wood.
