Alright folks! I highly recommend these regattas. You've got winter coming with nothing to do and 6 months to plan. Looking forward to seeing all of you there. See the attached photo from last year's White or Wheat Regatta. Note: The two fat guys on the Nacra have upgraded to an ARC22. See you at all three regattas.

Hello Don-
Two questions:
1. Is that a Hooter furled on the Nacra?
2. Who made the sails on the ARC22??
