Come on everybody. This is a great opportunity to sail with our Canadian friends as well as others from around the world. This event might also help bring back the cross border EC12 events that this class shared back in the early days. If not for a rather expensive family reunion next month, I would be going up to Windsor. I would really like to see a good turn out from both the US and Canada EC12 community. We were also hoping to see some Down Under skippers as well.

So go to the site and register.

How about our friends in GBR and Europe, like France, Germany, Australia and Sweden? Anyone coming from New Zealand where in concert with the US this was born? Anyone beating the bushes in these places EC12 interest? Anyone ask Bob Dudinsky where he has delivered. That is a good resource. Ask Chris Harmer from where the trophy will come from.

From NZ was likely only me - we are facing huge issues with lack of interest to even travel between islands here let alone to the US. AUS is almost a dead duck at the moment.

I would of been there but for for a health issue interrupting mobility this year.

This going to be fun one whether it's 10, 20 or 50 boat fleet. The guys in Windsor were always a pleasure to sail with in Detroit. Looking forward to this. It's just another chance to kick Ramos' butt!!! :D :D :D

Ken Miller sent me a couple of photos of the lake. Seems that all the Google Map and Google Earth images are from 7 years ago when the lake was just a mud puddle.
