WAVE SAILORS:
If you are planning to come to the 15th Annual Wave Nationals, which start this Thursday, Dec. 6, PLEASE pre-register -- or at least contact me tjos weekend by e-mail, mary at catsailor.com. We need a mouth count for the Saturday night dinner. Include people coming with you who want the dinner.

I am very excited about this year’s regatta, which is being held at The Islander resort in Islamorada, Florida Keys (Mile Marker 82 oceanside) At last we can again be at a place where everyone can hang out together for the whole time. They have a bar and restaurant and swimming pools, continental breakfast, wifi, etc. Even some rooms that are dog-friendly. Here is a link to their web site: http://www.islanderfloridakeys.com/

You don't have to stay at The Islander, and there are some much less expensive motels nearby, but you can still park your trailer there.

We’re expecting a very good turnout this year, but we have to order FOOD!!

Here is the link to the Notice of Race, which includes a link to Preregistration: http://www.catsailor.com/waves/wave_nationals.html

P.S. Boats are available to rent at the site.

Also, Rick just told me that you can pay on-line now when you pre-register, but you don't have to do that. He would prefer that you pay when you get here for final registration Thursday evening.

Who's handling rentals?

Barb Short has two left <barb@the-helm.com>

thanks

Just spoke with Dennis Green at the race site. He's got two good boats ready to race!
