I hear Dave Klipfeld intends to sweep the mid winters at RYC this year.
Anyone need a crew in December?

All the talk lately seems to be about going to the worlds, and
that's
important. But I would like to remind everyone that life goes on in
the
local fleets. Most of us are not going to the worlds, for what ever
reasons
we may have. And since the leaders of the various fleets are
packing there
boats for Australia, those of us who are staying home need to turn
out in
full force to support the fleet and to keep things going. We are
having
extremely skimpy turn outs at our regattas now and I suspect other
fleets
are experiencing the same thing. Its very important that everyone
who is
staying home get there boats out to the race course. You will find
that
racing can be more fun when the hot shots are gone.
As for the guys that are going to Australia, your boats may be
packed up but
you haven't left yet. So why not spend part of your time sailing
with the
less experienced members of your fleets to see what you can teach
them. The
extra camaraderie that can result from such a selfless act can be an
amassing and uplifting experience for the new members and less
experienced
sailors in our fleets. This is really the most convenient time to
do this,
and it will keep you wet so you wont dry out to much waiting for
Australia.
