So what happened down at MWE? I didn't see any results or hear anything about it. Are they posted somewhere?

Results are on the class website and the St. Andrews Bay website.

Short story - light / moderate air, nice weather, 5 races, long drive.

How about Team Kansas finishing second in H20? Ian Sammis with "Rock Star" crew, Tim Fitzgerald (captain of University of Kansas sailing team) flying in on Friday to crew :)

This team is racing 16A at the Daggerless 8) "Div 14, Div 14, Div 14"

Looks like the West spanked the east this year in attendance.

54 boats out West. Too bad it was a blow out. No racing Sunday due to 20-30 knot winds.

The West has always had more attendance, especially since East left the Tampa area.

None of the south Florida boats will travel to the Pensacola / Panama City location.

They're not interested in the class sanctioned (Hobie One-design) regattas, either. MWE is the only class sanctioned regatta in the southeastern US.

Thats too bad, as one class racing is the most fun way to go in my opinion.
And by the way, Div 14 sucks. Div 7 will stomp (as if there was any doubt). Daggerless trophy is ours.

correct me if i'm wrong, but last years daggerless top 5 on 14 were Mark Palph, Martin Brown, Sheila Holmes, Dan Jarrett, and Bruce Fields which are all Div 14 sailors. D 14 has some great sailors and we don't suck!

Dude, I was just fooling around. You guys don't really suck, I was just kidding. It's div 5 that really sucks. No, I am still just kidding there too...
Nobody sucks. Okay? NOBODY sucks. There, I said it. I am sorry. Jeez.

No making fun of my fleet members. I don't know a-boot that Canadian beer though. Gives me a colonic cleansing. And yes, the Daggerless trophy is ours. Go Div7!

Matt we will give you the finest beers. Ah, Kansas where the women instinctively flock like the birds of Copostrano and the beer flows like wine.
