<DIV>Keep in mind that the Mtka charters are in large vessels that are
dishing out a ton of gas not mention catering service. Unless I am
mistaken we are talking about a Carpi here. Not to mention you are
dealing with parents who dish out quite a bit as it is during a
<SPAN>recession</SPAN>. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I suggested to start the bidding low at $20.00 (or maybe even
$30.00) with the likelihood that it will reach $50.00 if not
more. You have to take into the "quality" of the ride ( no offense
Lynne) and your market/audience. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Now of course if Lynne includes Craiggae singing then of course you
will have to start the bidding at $10.00. We still luv ya
buddy.</DIV>

Lynne,<BR>><BR>> I've donated Capri25 and J22 keel boat cruises
to the First Unitarian<BR>> Society, including refreshments (wine
and cheese) and crew (2<BR>> experienced sailors).<BR>><BR>>
I promote these with "sit back and take in the lifestyle of the rich
and<BR>> famous, or grab the tiller and sail the boat
yourself." I think I<BR>> suggested $50 to $75.
Maynards is an option, but that would be an<BR>> additional
cost. Folks usually prefer to see the lake homes with
some<BR>> local history or sailing yarns thrown in for good
measure. Part of the<BR>> reward is meeting new folks with an
interest in sailing.<BR>><BR>> -Craig

Subject: [Capri25] Value of sailing excursion in Lake
Minnetonka<BR>><BR>> Hi Capri Sailors,<BR>><BR>> Hope
everyone is finding fun things to do to fill your time over
the<BR>> winter.<BR>><BR>> I have a question for all of
you. If you had to put a value on on a<BR>> sailing excursion
from WYC to Maynards, or maybe just around the lake<BR>> for a
couple of hours, what do you think the value would be?
Our<BR>> son's school is having their annual fundraiser and they
are asking for<BR>> donations of unique experiences or services for
the silent and live<BR>> auction. We thought we could donate
a Saturday sail but I'm not sure<BR>> what I should put as the
value. Any input?<BR>><BR>> Thanks,<BR>> Lynne and Eric
