Howdy sailors!
I actually live in Madison and know some of the guys involved with this
regatta. It's been growing better every year. In fact partially what
motivated me to build a Swift. If you have never sailed in Madison this
is a great opportunity to visit one of the best sailing hot spots in
the country!
Fire me an e-mail if you need help finding a place to crash or the
likes....

To: Swifts in the Midwest, Short notice I know but this looks like a
great regatta and a great opportunity to sail and at the least to show
the boat to people who might be interested in skiff sailing. If you
have the time, showing at this regatta would be a good start to
growing the fleet in your area - everyone's responsibility! Even if
you are not going to race. Please support the Midwest high-performance
sailing group if you can. The sparkplug contact is the I14 chick

June 10-12 3rd Annual Midwest Skiff Challenge!
This is the third annual Madison Skiff Challenge. It is organized by
the Midwest High Performance Sailing group
(http://www.highperformancesailing.org ) and hosted by The Madison
Sailing Center, Madison, Wisconsin. This is going to be the event of
the year for mid-west skiff sailing that you really don’t want to
miss! We are hoping to use this to promote skiff sailing through demos
and rides for those without a boat and support, coaching and some
racing for those with a boat.
We have people coming from Madison, Milwaukee, Chicago, Minneapolis
and beyond. This has been a great annual event. Some of the boats that
should be there: Vectors, International 14’s, 470's. This event is
open to any skiff or similar boat.
So, if you want to sail fast (No boat? Boat but no crew? We’ll be
happy to help match people and boats) then check the website and
register!
Please see the Notice of Race on the website as well as registration
information, accommodation recommendation, and other info.
Please come for any or all of the event... and please register so we
have a head count!

Hope to see you there!
