Hey there, it's Matt the S.B. Cats rental guy, just had to share, we had a guy book us to provide cat rides at a wedding reception on the beach, it turned out to be light onshore with abnormally big swell for around here (Santa Barbara CA), but doable, and I couldn't believe the response. We had a waiting list of over seventy people that wanted to go, from kids to a group of seventy year old women, all pretty dressed up too, it was crazy! Special thanks to Lee Wickland and his Hobie 21 for some great nonstop ride giving and Jill Scala for a super job organizing the turn arounds, we ended up taking about 45 people, right up until sunset, then he and I took the boat back to my beach in the dark. The rides were the most talked about event at the party, it's great to see that kind of response to cat sailing.....

Sent this to you as a private message, but just in case you miss it, here it is again:

===================================================

Hey Mr. sbflyer...

Would you like to come down to Ventura harbor on Sunday, the 16th to participate in the annual CAREGIVERS charity sail-a-thon? We sail around a short course just off the Ventura pier for 2 hours, trying to make as many laps as possible to raise sponsor money for an elderly assisted living charity. Afterburner (52'x30' w. 80' mast cat) will be there and I will be sailing my Tornado. It would also be a great promotion for your cat rental business in SB...

If you need more details, check out the CAREGIVERS website at:
CAREGIVERS

or email the organizer chair at: sailathon@vccaregivers.org

Cheers!

Mike Dobbs
