I-20 (501). Race to win, but not professional. Attend statewide regattas in Florida, but can't afford the time to visit regional or national events, although I'm sure I'd benefit from the talent they draw.
Sail both bouys and distance. Crew weight about 365 lbs.
I sail a SC 20 std rig, new EP sails, and spin w snuffer. Boat's on Couer d'Alene Lake in northern ID, few other cats, no real competition. Just like to make it go fast. Also have a Reynolds 21 and a H16 for a solo boat.
as per the childrens book about an imaginary microscopic civilization that lives on a dust spec that Horton only with large ears hears the people of whoville shouting ""we are here -we are here -we are here "
,-we are here .
I have a 20ft boat but do not race

Bring it on, Trey! You're up with the TBCSA group and they're a hearty band of sailors. Not much action in my neighborhood (Naples), but I'm up there somewhat regularly to race with them.
Water temperature 45 and falling rapidly, this mornings low temperature 12.
Bought a Hobie 20 yesterday, will race in Divisions 14 and 7 in '06. Hopefully 14 will get the bid to host the Nationals. Very excited to have a big fleet boat.
