Fleet #1 and others,<div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>I want to follow up on Jan's email with some additional information.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>1.<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>March 22 Rites of Spring (OYC): Yes, Fleet #1 sails this with white sails, so it's a very good intro to sailing your Tuna shorthanded. Entry Form at the bottom of this email. We need 5 entries for our own Start and Division. The NOR and other information is on the Oakland YC's website.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>If you have (or REALLY intend to entry) please send me an email to that effect. If we get our own division you will not need a 2008 PHRF Certificate for this race. </div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>As of 11:40 p.m. on Thursday, March 13 only Dominatrix and Elaine have sent in their entries.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>2.<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>April 9 and May 3/4: Kame's Vallejo talk is a great opportunity for Vallejo Racers to find out how to sail the race; the pizza offer also sounds tempting! </div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>But more important is getting registered for the race itself. As of 4:00 on Thursday, March 13 the following have signed up for YRA: Auggie, Betty Boop, Bonito, Elaine, Inshallah, Rubber Biscuit, Usquebugh (7 boats). I know it's early, but that's less than the show of hands at the recent Santana Fleet #1 Meeting. By my count there should be 12 to 14 boats headed up toward Vallejo on May 3. The longer you wait, the less likely it is you'll sign up -- I know the feeling.</div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre"> </span>You can sign up today via the Internet by going to <yra.org> using your credit card. </div><div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>Pat Broderick</div><div>"Elaine" Hull #245 <br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div><br></div><div><div><div></div></div></div></body></html>
