Hobie Midwinters East 2009 Panama City, FL

Hobie Fleet 120 is proud to announce Hobie Midwinters east 2009! MWE will be at Carl Gray Park in Panama City, FL (same venue as last year)
The dates are March 27th, 28th, 29th. We are working out the details for parties, dinners and what not right now, this economy is causing some places to cut back hours or close all together.

Our very own Matt Bounds will be the PRO so you can be assured of very well run races on the water and fleet 120 will dazzle you on land.

So plan on being in Panama City the last weekend in March for some great sailing and good ole' southern hospitality!

camping is available here but spots book fast, very fast! http://www.floridastateparks.org/StAndrews/

We are hoping for the following fleets
H16A
H16B
H17
TheMightyHobie18
H20
Wave

I know it looks like I just put most of the fleets down but we have gotten great responses from several people in each class already.

There's also talk from the Detroit / Kalamazoo Tiger fleets of a road trip, too.

That would be 4 or 5 boats.

Since I'll be on the signal boat, Wayne Mooneyham will be sailing my 17. If any of you 17 sailors think you can beat the Old Grey Fox, that would be the time to do it . . .

I may consider chartering my 16, too.

Thanks for the posting the MWE schedule here. Luckily I happened to have time to catch it. It would surely be appreciated if you and other race organizers would email me directly with schedules -- that way they go into a central Events Page for all to see, and then get in the Magazine all in one place for all of our readers to see.
And we have our NOR Forum elsewhere herein where you can post all the pertinent info.

Plus, with this new Forum, you can also use The Calendar Feature -- works great.

I will try to hype it up with the Waves. I understand now that we might be welcome with our class rules?!?!
Thanks,
Rick

As long as you don't try to add spinnakers...

Now that is funny ! I bet that they even avoid the Spinnakers beach bar.

Yea, we're good with Rick's Rules for MWE and HavaMega. And no SPI on the Wave!
