Coastrat, I think it's safe to say, that we did in fact, give her hell last Saturday

coastrat I went w/Glenn on Sunday... WHOO HOO... like a rocket.. foot an d DRIVE BABY... really really fast... just a few minutes to deer island... turn around and repeat till you're beat. then like fools we thought the wind died down (it did NOT) and thought that'd be a good time for some spinnaker practice... turn downwind... launch the chute... it's bliss and angels singing for about 3 minutes floating downwind on one hull... until we promptly learned a lesson, snuffed the honking sail... righted the boat, and high FIVED. Ah.. weekend complete.

Susan and I are going to put the P19 in the Bay saturday- don't know when we will try to get to the 'secret place'; also got the sail out to see the number- 993, mylar too; got to visit a graphics shop and get some vinyl for the P19; did get to West Marine and Harbor Frieght today; replaced the shock cords on the trap lines, but got the wrong size for the center boards- and I had the old cord with me at the store.

does it have a smyth designed mylar? (like the one in my avatar pic, whether it be a pinhead or square top)
we will have to meet up one day this summer and compare setups.
not sure how seasoned of a sailor you are, but p19s are a wild ride so don't make your first outing in too big of a breeze

Coastrat join us for 1699.... the wind will be sweet and the sailing fine... there's a few hobie 16s registered, so you could rock the P16. we have a few spin boats, a few non-spin.. and a few Waves registered... 3 classes like that....
course will be from middle of the area, go up windward , hang a left up to the beach... at the beach hang a left, sail by the beach and wave to the 1699 folks at ft. marapaus there (big ocean springs thing w/party, 5k run, etc, etc.. and the regatta)... and repeat the course.
we have a frenchmen dressed up liek D'Iberville to present awards in 1699 style clothing... going to be funny.
direct access to deer island may be tough w/smoking the sound... that side of the chanell will likely be blocked.
1699 gets you nice breakfast (breakfast cassaroles... grits, egges, coffee, etc.... beer while on the course... etc.. good folks good sailing.
otherwise.. will see you this summer.. sorry i missed you the other week.
cheers,
Rob. -

Hey FU
Where do you launch in the Bay?
Any where to keep the boat on the beach overnight?
My Sis-in-law has a house in Pass.

Too late-- perhaps ignorance is bliss; no experience at all! we took off from the beach near the house and got knocked over before we even got under wind- then got 2 hours of pure excitement with no issues; even beat it back up to where we started

Ron,
there are quite a few cats on the beach on the pass side they not only stay overnight on the weekends, but are there continously; all owners have removed all rigging and sails etc, only the standing rigging and tramp remain- they have long screw hooks in the sand to tie the cat too- they want to keep them there when the tide comes up
the real challenge is a launch pad on the pass side or even on our side-- beach dolly is a must
in our case for launching- I pulled into the street perpendicular to the beach closer to Waveland-- backed the trailer right onto the beach, stopped short keeping the SUV off the sand, not wanting to chance getting stuck in the sand
