You guys are freaking a little bit here. You will NOT be turned away from any hobie regatta IF you are on a Hobie, have a membership(or will get one) and can even have your own start if you have 3-5 boats. It doesn't need much more organization than that in most cases. If you got a boat, get a few other guys with the same thing and head out. www.hobiecat.com/hobieclass pretty much has the entire schedule continent wide, so make plans to go. Easy as that.
