My answers:

1. Yes. The details will be out shortly. Some last minute details have to be wrapped up and an announcment will go out to the list.

2. I'd love to but I can only afford one big trip this year and it will be Huntington.

3. I'm not sure.

4. I think they are working on the NOODs again. It worked well with Mustos, Swifts, ICs, and 29ers and I think they are looking at doing it again next year. I don't have details yet.

5. Mark White, Paul O'Sulivan, Dave Kerr, and I raced in the Utah Summer Games. We had a great time and we are thinking of doing it again next year.

As soon as I know firm dates for things, I'll create a new calendar on the class site and post events. If you have one you'd like to announce, send it to me and I'll add it to the list of things to do.


Oh and Pete, have you been leaving those poor sting rays alone?

I am planning my calendar and looking for races in 2009 we can take single handed skiffs to, in particular in the western states.

1 - is the Swift Solo (& Musto) North American's at Huntington Lake a GO ? If so, when ?

2 - if 6 of more Swifts/Mustos are participating at the Saint Francis' Spring Dinghy regatta, March 14-15, we can get our own start. So far, we have 2 Mustos. Is anyone else interested ?

3 - who is planning to go to the Gorge Skiff Regatta this year ? Is the clinic open to Swift/Musto sailors ?

4- any regattas in WA that are great for Swift/Musto sailors ?

Kind Regards,
Pieter
