Im 18 and have been sailing competitively for about 8 years now. im goin to college real shortly, but with no sailing team at my college and having to race the same people at my sailing club every weekend, im really craving some more competition.
im looking ahead to next summer and really would like to go around to a lot of different laser regattas, seeing as i focused this summer on lightnings (qualified for 2010 youth worlds woo!). i was just looking around on the ILCA-NA website for some regattas to go to and started reading about the Grand Prix. i was just wondering how competative this is? I havent traveled for many laser regattas, and as a result don't know how i would fair against the majority of the competition.
im not looking to be close to the lead right off the bat, but if im going to be spending a lot of time (and money) going to these events then i at least want to know if i can keep up and be competative.
anyone experienced with these events? any regattas i could go to before i get into it to see how i do? thanks for any help.
