[Sonar] LOWISA no-boat regatta event

[Thomas_M_Brown at bluecrossmn.com]

Bert and I would like to invite you,  the Sonar group,  to a LOWISA 
no-boat regatta on October 20th at 7:00PM at the WYC clubhouse.    We'll 
supply the goodies and libation.

Here are some of the planning issues that we'll be talking about:

1.   Finding out how many Sonars will be coming to LOWISA.     Discussing 
the ideal situation of getting a one design fleet for the Sonars at LOWISA 
that would us our own awards category (right now,  one design fleets are 
forming for Hobie 18s, E Scows and Flying Scots.   There are typically 
about 60 to 70 boats at LOWISA overall.

2.  Describing some of the different accomodation options for LOWISA and 
the cost options involved.

3.  Since there are two houseboats involved for those who houseboat, 
making some tentative assignments to houseboats and getting some initial 
deposits made so we can hold them. 

4.  Discussing an optional embarkation point of Warroad two days prior to 
the beginning of LOWISA at Kenora  (a 130 mile sail to Kenora with an 
overnight stop at Oak Island MN on the Northwest Angle).


5.  Racing points for WYC and LOWISA.    Come find out what Bert did!


LOWISA,  on Lake of the Woods,  as been dubbed by some as the Lake Powell 
of the north.   With over 14,000 islands,  most uninhabited, it requires 
such early planning because of its wilderness environs and houseboat 
availability.   If we don't get houseboat deposits in the next couple of 
weeks,  the houseboats will not be available for next year.    Although 
LOWISA will be stopping at fishing lodges that will also be an option, the 
houseboat option provides the greatest amount of freedom, fun and social 
interaction at the  lowest per capita cost.

myself  (we're in the logbook).
