89 boats and counting. Maybe we can reach that longlost 100 boat mark again this year. You guys better be there!

, nor do I really have the boat handling experience to be racing.

Gotta start somewhere and from what I have heard, nothing but nice people at this regatta (for the most part... I am sure there are exceptions <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> )

Ryan, PTP is right. This is THE regatta to go to learn, be with catamaran people, warm up(most years), and to see whats up in the catamaran world today. Whether you race or not, sign up and bring your boat. These guys will help you rig it correctly, and you can judge your speed against others on the race course. Other than Rick Whites sailing seminars, racing can be the best way to learn

We pulled the boat out and I've sorted through all my gear.... Time to Rock n Roll.... well hopefully not roll. We've pitchpoled in a race in each of the past two years... Not to mention not getting on the course on time... That sure doesn't help your scores... This year my goal is to stay upright and on time.
