Just a quick note to let you know that the 2015 Corsair Nationals will be held in Pensacola, Florida April 28-May 3 to commemorate the 20th Anniversary of the very first Corsair Nationals in 1996. As many of you who have attended past Nationals know, Pensacola is a terrific, user friendly location. And late April/early May typically provides warm temperatures (but not too hot) and good sea breezes. A local committee consisting of Randy Smyth, Bert Rice, Linda Wright and myself have put their heads together to come up with something a little different than what has been done before. There will be something for everyone: Cruising for the “Fun Fleet”; racing for the racers; seminars for those wanting to learn new skills or improve on existing ones. Plus at least one “sleep over” (also known as a party on a beach somewhere) which the fleet will cruise to before the formal racing starts. Plus demos on new model Corsairs, and more we have yet to think of.

Please check out this link to a more detailed announcement on the Corsair Owner’s Community (sail.corsairmarine.com)

We are working on a web site for the publication of event information such as the proposed schedule, launching and trailer parking sites, hotels, etc. and this will be publicized when it is available.

It will not be possible to answer questions directly on this discussion forum but if you have any questions or suggestions please contact Don Wigston, infoatwindcraft.net. What would be most useful would be for you to e-mail me directly with an indication of the likelihood of your coming to help our planning. A simple “definitely coming” or a “maybe coming” or a “can’t come” would be of great help along with some idea of whether you are interested in being part of the Fun Fleet, the Racing Fleet, or both.

Otherwise most if not all of the questions you have should be answered in due course as we put more information out.

Respectfully,
Your 2015 Corsair Rendezvous and Nationals planning committee
