Spring Fever is also the second to last race in the Zhik Southern Area F18 Winter series. You only need three to be in the hunt, and there are 3 left in the series:
Pensacola MidWinters, March 24 & 25 Spring Fever, April 6-8 GYC Regatta, April 28&29

One of the largest catamaran regattas in the country sporting A-cats, F18s, Hobies from 14s to 20s, Nacras of all shapes and sizes, Mysteres, Isotopes, you name it! The race course is designed for maximum racing with a start line at the bottom and a finish line at the top of the course so you start when your fleet has regathered in the start area - there is absolutely no waiting for other fleets because they are finishing on the other end of the course!
Food, food, tons of food! Sub-Way sandwiches, Honey Baked Ham, Party (with more food) every night! Live music!
Typically there's an easter egg hunt for the kids and if you're concerned about Easter Services, there are local churches open and willing to accomodate!
There is also a scoring system that allows you to race two days and average your score for the missed races so you can still compete if you can only make two days.
You don't want to miss this one!

Let me know if anyone is interested in chipping in some coin to do this.
I'd drive the stacks up on Weds prior and back to Orlando on Monday after.
For those going to SC45, it may be possible to stack your boat that weekend and leave it with me (that is if you won't need it until SF).

I've been waiting 12 years to burn that line somewhere, thank you internet.

Posts: 3,224 Roanoke Island ,N.C. | THE Karl is inappropriate. Now he's done it! I'm pretty sure he'd be Karl jr.. Langefeld has certainly earned a "The" in front of his name. Booger( I think this is way more appropriate) is still in training, but Lee will help get him fast tracked at the GT-300.

Ding- Its a line from a song that came out in 2000. To give a hint as to the rest of the content, the chorus is: "A lap dance is always better when the stripper is crying". The rest I don't even dare touch...
