Officially that will be the fleet. Unofficially, we surely can accommodate a few more if anyone expresses interest. (I'd put one of those wink, wink emoticons in here but I hate those things!)

Good Greif, it is only a week and a half away and many of the regulars are not signed up.
DO IT The cutoff date is Nov 26 FOUR DAYS AWAY

DO IT

We'll be at Monty's Friday evening for pizza and Saturday night we're going to The Torch for dinner. Still expecting a few more boats.

I hope your regatta is a great success and that everyone behaves like sportsman. I wish I could be there. I tried to fit it in to all I am doing, but it was just too much.

Updated after Jim Pardee withdrew. There will be 13 in each A start and 12 in B with four going back and forth (in some cases back and forth and back and forth, etc.)

Some "B" Fleet with a National Champion and a past Florida Champion!

Where is Chuck Milliken? Seems to have been omitted from press standings today! Great day and lots of fun! Thanks RD and all nice volunteers! PG Group really knows how to put on a great show - even if the wind was a bit spooky at times. Thank you all!

Sorry Chuck. Take another look!

Here is how it all ended. We only got in 3 races Sunday morning. It didn't make sense to drift around the pond dealing with the crazy shift, etc. so the event was called a little after 11:00, after just 3 heats.

Congratulations to Alan and the other winners.

Very well run regatta. All skippers were gentlemen. Nice to sail with my good friends!
We even sent the fire ants to attack Alan Perkins, but he still won anyway. It was fun though to watch him jump around.....

I forgot to mention... really nice prizes:

Thank you the Suncoast Model Yacht Club for the hard work putting on this regatta. The weather was brilliant! Congrats to all of the sailors! Hope to see you all next month. Happy Holidays
