Age old conversation..Hyde Vs. North. Personally, after hearing all about how the Hyde was better, I bought one. I like! Seems a bit stiffer and de-powers easier than my previous Norths. After a year of sailing, I'm ready to put my Hyde into the practice inventory, but can't... it's still got...

37 as of today. I expect 60 will show, come on guys/gals get registered!

FYI, The Masters Worlds just amended their NOR to reflect a lower liability limit(1,000,000). Just bought bought a years' policy for about $275 (including Dolly and trailer for a 2011 boat). Got it from Gowrie Group....

I just did take a look at the ISAF Worlds insurance requirements. $10,000,000 indeed, and my apologies for insinuating that we were talking about different types of coverage. What does a policy like that cost you guys, individually?

Wow, that seems like a lot. I think those of us in the USA would be hard pressed to find a policy that offers 10 million in liability coverage. The highest liability coverage available to us here in the USA through our national authorities' affiliate is $2,000,000....

I need to get some insurance on my Laser and need some advice on where the best place to get it is. I had been buying individual regatta policies at the venue for the last couple of big regattas, but I think it's probably way too expensive to do it that way. Plus, I just watched a new Laser...

The intensity bag is pretty sweet, I'd recommend it too.

Got an email from the Class a few days ago saying that they anticipate opening up the entry on February 8.

Come on you all... get on over here. This is a multi class event, with over 150 boats expected. Lasers and sunfish will have have their own circle. For 75 bucks, you'll get two days of great Laser racing, plus primo onshore food and party events...

Kitty Hawk all the way. Simple, easy, and well built. I figure I have about 7000 miles on mine, and not even one issue at all. I just decided to inspect and repack the bearings. I thought I might have to at least replace some of the parts but they we're all in like new condition. I routinely...

Looking forward to it. We'll be there for sure. With Masters week starting the weekend after, this will be a great start to a very busy month of top notch FL Laser sailing. Who's in? Dave Hillmyer 191963 Donna Steele 176267
