Two Weeks to Nationals (August 19)!!

Hail Cocktail Racers!  Can you believe we are already on the back side of summer? But as sad as that thought is, it also means that Nationals just around the corner.  Peter Urbani and I are race directors this year and we (along with the fantastic volunteers at the Rock Hall Yacht Club) have a fun and exciting race weekend planned for all.

The theme this year is Margaritaville, so bring along your Parrotheadgear as we’ll have a great dinner/music on Saturday after racing!  Also, we plan to hold a member meeting on Friday night in the pavilion at 7pm, so please plan to attend.

It has been really exciting to see so many new racers/boats at this year’s events and I look forward to seeing a huge turnout.  In part because of the new racers and from member feedback during the year, we have scrapped the idea of having special Nationals finals based on the top racers from previous events from this year. All finals will be based on performance in the heats at Nationals, per our normal format.

Finally, thanks for bearing with us with the website transition.  As at Kent Island, we will not charge a late fee for onsite registration, but please try to register online if possible so that we can have a correct dinner count for the RHYC.

See you at Nationals!
