I'll be going the hard way. It looks like I'll also have a new Swift with me. David Kerr is very close to finishing and will probably be sending his boat with me. He'll be flying down later.

I've got some photo's of his boat I'll have to post on the class site tonight.

As we're getting this event together we've come to realize what an
inexpensive vacation this will be for those from the Northwest. We can take up to 15
boats for under $13000 round trip and this includes your camping gear and
bicycles. The airfare is under $300 round trip--cheaper than flying to Boise
Idaho. Campsites are $35 a night for up to 6 people.
Add this up:
if we get 13 boats in the air ride trailer we go for $1000 each
airfare $300
round trip
camping $8 per night times 10 nights $80 for the entire
stay
Rental car split 4 sailors 10 days $125
entry fee for clinic and regatta $135 (estimated
at this time)
10 days on the warm beautiful beach $000 but priceless
___________
Total $1640
Total per day $164 per
person
When you add the saving from not using your car, your lights, your heat,
and your local shopping mall at home, you can easily see that spending 10 days
sailing and hanging out on the beach is the only reasonable financial
alternative! Staying home is simply too expensive.
You must hurry as we can only take a total of 16 Swifts and Mustos from the
Northwest on this once-in-a-lifetime trip to paradise. It looks like 9 spots
are already gone!
But wait, there's more! We promise that new Swift and Musto sailors will
learn more in this 10 days on the warm water of Fort Desoto than you'll learn
all season at home. In addition to all of this, if you bring your wife or
girlfriend, she'll be forever sold on coming back in the future.
Seriously, come and join in the fun--this will be cheap and easy.
