For those of you in upstate NY:
We are planning on having a small regatta on Big Moose Lake in July on the weekend of either the 10th or 17th. I will be bringing my SolCat, and most likely a Hobie 17 and 14 will be coming up from CT. We would love to have some of the many cats on the lake join us, and I plan on putting a notice in the local newspaper as the time gets closer. If anyone is interested please let me know. Thanks. -

Hey Ted,
Do you have any more info on the Sacandaga Icebreaker
this Saturday. Maybe the time it starts and if there is
a preregistration required. Made a new tramp for my freebie
Venture cat and got it on it's mooring on Kinderhook Lake.
You will have to come out a sail it sometime.

This is kind of an old post but I thought I would bring her back. I just moved to the Albany area a few months ago. I grew up in Alexandria Bay ny on the St Lawrence. I have been killing to get out on the water!!! it seems like all the lakes around here are private!! no good public launches for a sailboat. I have been in the market for a Hobie 17 bc I think it would be a great fun solo/one crew boat to mess around on. And simple for taking newbies on. I checked out the Saratoga sailing club and I really cant afford membership.. they do have a few un used h17s though that I am trying to get my hands on atleast one. If any one needs a crew in the area let me know! Im not the best sailor in the world but I know the basics and at 180lbs im good deck meat and I love getting out on a trap!

tempting! I could be up for a rochester trip. I have lots of friends there. I used to race 420s out of the Rochester Yacht club. I would like to try out a 17 first before I buy one. I have quite a bit of seat time in an H16. They are exciting for sure! My uncle actually has an olympic tornado from the 80s. I havent got to sail it yet but I have heard stories!!! hahaha. I really like the lines of the Nacra 5.2 and 5.0 but they are pretty hard to find. There is a 5.2 for sale in vt on this site. not too far away but might be a bit much for me to handle solo and step solo.

Welcome to the Albany area. There are quite a few of us sailing cats around here. Take a look at craigslist
Albany. There are two 17's on there right now. Fleet 238 is based out of Albany and it is a bunch of great
people who like to sail. There are also 4 cats racing out of the Mayfield Yacht club. If you are available afternoons during the week i can get you out on Sacandaga on my P16. Next weekend fleet 238 is sailing
out of Northampton campground on Sacandaga. Probably be at least one 17 there. I will pm you my email and phone if you have any other questions.

Thank you! I look at the 750$ one. the hulls are thrashed. but everything else is there and in good shape. so if any one wants parts i know where to send you. Do you have to join fleet 238? and do they only race? I really looking just to race for fun not too seriously. would they allow other boats than hobies? its too bad i wont be here next weekend... I am from alex bay ny and its Pirates weekend so i am heading there. I might take you up on a pindle ride! I have only seen one once, never sailed. I get donw work around 330 so I could get there by 430-5ish.

Fleet 238 doesn't organize any races. They just have fun sails and attend the mayors cup race in Plattsburgh.
I just started racing a bit for fun. I prefer to go out and go fast.
