Online <br>registration is now open – register early and often, as the late entry <br>fee kicks in on June 1. <br><a href="http://www.larchmontyc.org/racing/V15National.shtml">http://www.larchmontyc.org/racing/V15National.shtml</a> <br><br>This promises to be a great event. Larchmont YC is home to the largest <br>Vanguard 15 fleet in the country (60+ boats). Mid June is a great time <br>to be on Long Island Sound. We have hosted the New Englands the past <br>five years this same weekend and have had at least one day of planing <br>conditions each year with double digit races in the series. We have a <br>top notch Race Committee that also ran the 2005 Hinman and the 2000 V15 <br>Nationals. We have also upgraded our storage and boat launching <br>capabilities with extra ramps. <br><br>For out of towners traveling to Larchmont, Friday June 13 will be a <br>practice day. Housing is available on a first come, first serve basis, <br>as are charter boats. Information about both is on the Nationals <br>website. The site also has order forms for limited edition V15 <br>Nationals duffel bags by Ella Vickers Recycled Sailcloth that can be <br>customized with your name and/or sail number and ready for delivery at <br>Nationals. <br><br>Thanks to our great sponsors (Nautica as title sponsor, Heineken with <br>in-kind donations, Ella Vickers Recycled Sailcloth with trophies and <br>duffel bags, plus Annapolis Performance Sailing, LaserPerformance, Boat <br>Locker, Landfall Navigation and UK Halsey with items for a free raffle <br>on Sunday before the awards ceremony), we’ll have free regatta t-shirts, <br>dinner on Saturday night, a BBQ on Sunday before the awards, a free <br>raffle, trophies for top junior, women’s and masters teams and much <br>more. <br><br>Our goal is to get 100 Vanguard 15s on the starting line. There’s no <br>conflict with college sailing nationals, most junior sailing programs <br>won’t have started yet, there’s no team racing conflict, etc. No <br>excuses. Come to Larchmont. <br><a href="http://www.larchmontyc.org/racing/V15National.shtml">http://www.larchmontyc.org/racing/V15National.shtml</a> <br><br>If you have any questions about V15 Nationals, please drop me a line at <br>wpbeardsley [ at ] gmail.com <br><br>Sincerely,<br>Peter Beardsley<br>Event Chairman<br><br>Vanguard 15 Class Association<br><a href="http://www.v15.org">www.v15.org</a><br>--^----------------------------------------------------------------<br>This email was sent to: tka3@cornell.edu<br><br>EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?bUrHcl.bVc8hH.dGthM0Bj<br>Or send an email to: v15-unsubscribe@topica.com<br><br>For Topica's complete suite of email marketing solutions visit:<br>http://www.topica.com/?p=TEXFOOTER<br>--^----------------------------------------------------------------<br><br></blockquote></div><br></body></html>
