We just got finished with the White Rose Regatta today. Although I am a "White Roser," I owe a big thank you and congratulations for pulling it off to those people who did the work (I did nothing).

Chuck Aiken and Pete Houghton (my father) did a wonderful job planning a regatta that was very fun to me. Chuck is a great sailor, superior craftsman, and good planner as well. He truly put his heart into this project and I feel that it showed during the racing and the party as well. His family did a beautiful job as well - I know of none of them that wasn't involved!

A big thanks goes out to the sailors that we had as well. It never ceases to amaze me how so many people with such skill can get together and help each other out. It just reminds me what a great, close group EC12 saiors are.

Thanks for listening - I'm just excited.
