<font size=3>Hi All<br>
The WYC has been awarded the Sonar North American Championship for
2011. I'm talking to them about dates. There is the
<b><u>potential</u></b> that we could replace the SOTN in 2011 with a
combined Sonar & Capri Championship. We could save $s and have
a better regatta. The Sonars expect 20-25 boats and I suspect
the Capris may have 25-30. We would probably run it for 3 days in
Sept depending on what the national organization wanted and what the
fleets want. The problem with being in Minnesota is not many people
are willing to tow a boat to get here (24-30 hours.) except J-24 and
J-22.<br><br>

below. Our request to host next year's Catalina/Capri Nationals has
been approved. I think this will be a great event for us as well as
the Catalina International Association. Between now and then, I
will be looking for people who can help make this happen, so please let
me know if you can assist.<br><br>
Heavy air tonight. Don't forget to bring your big hiker and your
