<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>WINE ON WAYZATA BAY<BR>The reviews are in and WOW
ended up delivering big time with great wine and great winds. Over 30k raised
and hundreds of community members were introduced to WYC at the wine
tasting. Contratulations to Bob Carpenter and Team Jalepeno who spearheaded this
effort (along with Pete Ice). Now is the time to consider corporate sponsorship
for 2009, get in early. </FONT><A href="http://www.WineOnWayzataBay.com"><FONT

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>OPTI PHOTOS<BR>Our beloved club
photographer shot some pics of the Opti sailors who raced last Friday in
20-30mph winds. Too windy for the Lasers and 420's, but the Opti's had a great
time. Oh...to be 12 years old again. <BR></FONT><A

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>WRITE YOUR CONGRESSMAN<BR>Two issues to consider
concerning sailors. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>1. <FONT face=Arial>Government gone wild is threatening
to enact severe limitations on recreational boating by forcing recreational
boats to conform to regulations written for large commercial ships. Please
request to your congressional representative to have </FONT><FONT
face=Arial>H.R. 5949/S. 2766 passed before September 30, 2008.

size=2><FONT face=Arial> (but don't use their spam targeted submission
form)<BR></FONT><BR></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2>2. Latitude 38 has been
following the trial of a CA sailor charged with manslaughter after a powerboater
rammed his boat and killed a passenger while traveling at over 40mph
at night. Sounds crazy until you discover the powerboat driver, who
has NOT been charged with anything, is a local
Deputy Sheriff. It's too crazy to believe, but still the story continues.
Please write a letter and help stop the madness.<BR></FONT><A
