There was a YC in Gulfito. More of a beach bar I think they had some dingy's if I recall correctly they definitely had the beer. This was a while back(20 years)

US Sailing - Mandatory Ignorance
By Peter Huston
US Sailing's recent announcement of mandating membership for helmsmen has inspired a lot of conversation. It seems that US Sailing has somehow tied itself to a winning America's Cup team by...
- Coffee etc. in the morning
- Lunches and water
- Beer and soda after the racing
- Dinners that people will attend
- Camping
These + cheap housing should be in Erie for the NA's.:):)
The HF trailer can be made highway ready. I've done a few. Bigger wheels check, longer tounge check, custom cut chocks check, + a welder to tack it all together. It all adds up. + add in any inspections by your state. Often its a less pita to buy one.

They did the same thing back in the late 80's with the Smythe Championships. The Quarter and Semi finals were sailed in lasers and the finals Sunfish. The same reasoning was used not enough race-able sunfish on Lake Erie.

The link seems dead.
I've contacted web master.
Hopefully someone from PSC will chime in.

"I happen to have some unopened 2000E thats only about 16 months old which should be enough for the job."
Thats the best reason I've ever heard for using the stuff. I thought that reason was going to be more along the lines of "I read about it in Practical Sailor" I really hate that rag.
"I'm first sealing the entire hull with the Interlux 2000E epoxy barrier system"
I'm at a lost as to why your doing this. Is the boat staying on a mooring for the year? + the magic platelets in it are nothing more than talc. Buy a gallon of Ve resin and some baby powder and save a mint.
Steve,
Shouldn't this read 2009
