We moved Ty around into classes to get them to make. Even did a refurb on one boat.

Never new you could change it to class. I may rearrange my classes too. Maybe add one.

[photohoward1]

I just updated my classes so I could actually run. Added some dropped some. I couldn't sign in so I just re-did it. Have no Idea why it would not let me sign in.

Registration Information:


Class: LSG 36 Catamaran

Class: LSG Super Sport Mono

Class: FE P Mono

Class: FE Q Sport Hydro

Class: Open Mono

Class: Open Rigger

I think these have the best chance of making it. Sad not enough P-Cat.....

[T.S.Davis]

We lost one of our travelers because P and Q cat weren't going to run.
