How many of you are going to the 2006 North Americans at St.Margarets Bay Yacht Club? I know if I get my laser in time and have enough practice you'll see me there, I will post my sail number to you all when i buy a boat so you'll kno where to find me, lol. And there is regatta as stated at the smsc website one week before the North Americans to practice or get in shape for the race. www.smsc.ca is link to st.margarets bay yacht club website, it has all the details.

To steal a sales pitch from the 2006 J-22 North American Hosts in Minnesota...It's really Not That far.
Starting from:
Checotah Dr At Beacon Dr, Austin, TX 78734 Arriving at:
Halifax, NS Distance:2702.9 milesApproximate Travel Time:41 hours 35 mins
We just found an Austin resident transplanted from Halifax and forced him to purchase Charlie Smythe's old Laser. Forced could be strong terms as there were no death threats but we did show him a big fat rope!!
Anyway, John Adair is now beginning his Laser racing career and if everything goes perfectly, some members of the Austin Fleet and my 5 boat trailer just might show up in Canada.
Yes, just as we have done at CORK, we will bring a boom box and play cowboy music.
