Tradewinds Update - 01/04/09 04:25 PM
All Wave Sailors and other sailors:
We have the biggest regatta, next to the Wave Nationals, coming up on January 17-18 at Founders Park. It is the Tradewinds Midwinter Open Cat National Championships. You HAVE to attend. It is the biggest regatta in the USA for catamarans of all kinds. If you are NOT a Wave sailor, for some strange reason, there will still be a class for you.
Not to mention there is a beautiful trophy (the Carlton Tucker Memorial ) awarded to the winner of the largest class. For two years the Hobie 16 Class has just edged out the Waves for that honor. Great comeback for H16s in Florida. Good going.
Expected Classes:
F16 Class Midwinter Nationals
F18 Class Midwinter Nationals
Harken Buoy Series (first of series and awards for last year)
Wave National Series Regatta
Hobie 16
Nacra 20
Open Class Lo
Open Class Hi
Please PreRegister so we can assure T-shirts for every sailor, skipper and crew.
To do so, go here:

This time of the year you can usually find pretty good rates as there is a small window of OFF SEASON after the New Year. I have heard that there are good rates at Holiday Isle.
