I've been talking with Chris McKillip the new owner of capri25.com (the
previous owner was that strange guy from HoundDog Hosting). He talked
a little about the capri25.org site:
What happened to the National site anyway. I read that the
members didn't want to support
the funds to keep it up just because it was there to promote the
Nationals, and there wasn't
enough outside people coming to the regatta.
I understand from being the OUTSIDER, that most of you all talk
on the docks or in the clubhouse
after the races about the setups and the problems that happen
with these boats. I sure would like for the
WYC people to set forward with talking about there boats. I
really enjoyed the National site, I wish that
Catalina would have put you all in a National Association, and
put you all on the Catalina Web site. It's
kind of like owning a ghost ship, Everyone knows about it, but
know one talks. As for the Capri25.com site
I guess I got lucky with buying it. If WYC's members would all
come together with the rest of us out here
it would be a great thing to have. I myself have spent allot of
time putting all of this stuff together, and I would
really like for everyone to come to a central place to talk
about their boats. I am all for making Capri25 an
open site to anyone, right now it's just my sailboat, and some
details from Catalina. I really liked the forum
that you set up, Its a shame that no one used it, well I did.
Pass the info around WYC and see what there
thoughts are on the subject. I am the webmaster at Windycrest.
com a sailing club here in Oklahoma. We
now have 7 Capri 25's that sail in our fleet. I am guessing that
we are the second largest fleet of Capri 25's to
you all. I will be happy to pay for the site as long as I own my
boat, and if I would ever sell it, I would pass the
ball and chain to someone else. We have over 50 members now on
the Yahoo site, most of them are outside
of WYC but we do have some WYC members active in the group.
PLEASE SIGN UP to the group, It would be
nice to talk with you about the possibilities of creating a
National Site again. And we have good topics about
setup, and trim.

Subject: [Capri25]Regatta planning
It is past time to finalize the regatta plans and make sure everything
is in place. There will be a regatta planning meeting this Sunday after
the race on the balcony if it is available. We need volunteers for the
food committee and the registration committee. Especially needed is
several people available during the day Saturday to help Jill prepare
the Saturday night feast. In addition Mark Weum and Pete Willenbring
need help in collecting item for a good raffle. If you have contacts
that might want to support our regatta with raffle items, please let
Mark or Pete know. If you have contacts that might want to serve as a
regatta sponsor, please contact Dutch.
Last, but not least, you need to register for this event and send us
your money. I am attaching a copy of the registration form. Print it out
and get it to me. It is also available on the WYC web site in the Capri
25 section. If you have any questions feel free to email me or contact
me at the club.
