Yep, thats what I will be shooting for.

Someone said sticker? I may have to incorporate that into my avatar.



Maybe a lil evilish?

Wouter, are you flying over for that Gulfport race in March?

Please give you plan on sailing in March at the F16 uni regatta, please go and pre-register on Gulfportyachtclub.com.
It is very important we know who is coming.
We are expecting to see maybe 7 or more f16's.
Some tenative boats are Rick White and Mike Crawford.
I am expecting to see Matt and hopefully now Robi.
This is a great place to sail with flat water.
I am a little biased since I am the commadore, but come out and sail. I will help you get information for accomadations if needed. There will be a great party and great sailing.
Again, please register, it is important.
So far we have myself, Chuck, Jennifer, Hollis and Rick and Mike C. Tenative. I can totally see 8 or more boats. Last year was awsome sailing and the f16's really match up well sailing with the A Cats. They are expecting possibly more than 20 A-Cats.

Yes I have the form here. All I have to do is print it out and mail. I can pay the day I show up correct? I am hesitant on paying before hand, because quite frankly Matt and Myself are not sure if the boat will be ready. Matt is shooting for the end of Feb.

Am I flying over for this regatta ?

I fear that I'm both out of money and out of time.

I would love to have done more regatta's in the USA like this one.

I met a few you at Springfever 2002 but missed Jennifer, Seth, Mike and so many others.

I wanted to be there for each inaugural event in each continent, but I already missed those in Australia (Company I worked for going banckrupt at the time) and South Africa (No money because I was unemployed at the time)

And I'll miss the inaugural F16 event in Asia (Signapore, Thailand) as well. (this coming februari)

The bursting of the IT bubble did kind of affect my personal situation. I outran its shockwave for several years but last 2004 it caught up with me.

Now I'm very involved in getting a different career set up. With that and F16 work I'm happy to have some spare time here and there. So I'm tight for money and out of time and can't make Gulfport 2005.

You guys will think of me when you sail your races there won't you ?

I'll be there in spirit. That is if you will have me ! (Not everybody likes to have a scary ghost hanging around !)

Sorry

Wouter

Looks like the A-cat guys need a few more entries themselfs !

F16 is leading at this time I'm sure that will change though
