Rick or Terry, I tried the picture link from the new Tradewinds report on the opening Catsailor page but it kept giving me an error message...any ideas?

Thanks.

Hi Tim,
Their website has not been launched yet. As soon as they get back home they said they would get it up.

Thanks Rick, and thanks again for another great Tradewinds regatta! Oh, by the way, Andi Lutz, F16, flew all the way from Switzerland to attend (his 3rd Tradewinds), you can add him to the list of "International Skippers".

is there any consensus toward adding $5 or $10 to registration to compensate the photographer? Perhaps in exchange for a little photo of their boat? with the 80 boats you had, that's $400 for pictures. Does that sound reasonable?

Racine had a photographer, don't remember the details.

I'd be more willing to fund a professional video but that gets expensive.

I'd rather stick to photos. If they saw how slow I was really going, I would have even less street cred than I do now!

Rick and Terry Loewen are not professional, but the pix are really quite good. The modern camera makes everyone look good.., well, except me. Everytime I use my D100 I have to call Chip Short and ask him what the settings should be.

I got the feeling from Terry that you are welcome to pix, but they would appreciate a donation. Seems pretty fair, I think!

A few more years and I might make "boat -ho" status
