AT THE HELM<BR>The MWST is again organizing sailing seminars specifically for
women. Two nights, <STRONG>June 6th and 10th</STRONG>, $25. This is a great
chance to learn to sail without having to deal with guys who belch on the
downwind legs and yell at mark roundings. Great tune-up for the Saturday Women's
series. One classroom and one on the water session. Any and all females are
invited regardless of sailing experience.<BR><A

CREW TRAINING<BR>Yes, there's more to being good crew than insuring the skipper
brings enough cold beer. Learn the finer points of being a bow monkey
on <STRONG>June 7th</STRONG> and learn to pull those funny strings on
<STRONG>June 14th</STRONG>. This is a great seminar for a boat owner to bring
the entire crew and boat as a team. <BR><A

REGATTA<FONT color=#000000><FONT face=Arial size=2><BR>It's Bigger, it's Badder,
it's Reformatted, and it's SOON. June 17-18 are the new dates, and the new
hours are racing starts at noon with social events when you hit the dock. Get
your crews lined up, register your boat, get some sponsors. <A

THE MYC RACE COURSE<BR>I have photographic evidence of many WYC boats sailing
through the MYC race course after the Big Island race last week. DON'T DO THAT!
They hate it just as much as you'd hate it. Saturday morning is their big
deal championship series. Please go above or below the course before a bunch of
A's decide to come barreling through our Thursday night course with their sprit
poles extended to full skewering position.<BR></FONT></FONT><FONT

same format, and we love it that way. July 4th in the prettiest place on the
planet. Use the crane, bring your boat up or try to bum a ride on a big boat if
a spot is still open. NOR's and registration at <A

SCHOOL<BR>Why my parents didn't send me to sailing school when I was a kid, I'll
never know. Maybe it's because WYC didn't have a sailing school back in the day.
But now we have one of the best sailing schools in the universe. US Sailing
named it best new school last year (or something like that). Enroll your kids,
enroll your grandkids, enroll neighborhood kids. Classes for all ages and skill
levels for short people. <STRONG>Week long camp programs (not racing) start in
June.</STRONG> A summer experience!<BR><A

CUP<BR></FONT><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2><FONT color=#000000>Match racing
qualifiers are coming to WYC June 3 and 4. Perhaps you could still
get a team together if you think you're that good, or you can come and watch.
It's just like the America's Cup except the budgets cost $49,999,000.00 less.
