      Yup, depending on the boat count, we'll run 4 or 5 rounds over the weekend.

      Look forward to seeing you and your daughters again, maybe Nina will get her name on our resurrected Novice trophy!

          Super! Your girls are sure to be the life of the party like they were last time you made it up.

          Thanks for the "consult" on the FE classes BTW, for someone like me that regularly "lets the magic smoke out", it's much appreciated!

            Looks like were going to make it this year. I know you all are already running a bunch of classes but I was surprised not to see P-Limited Hydro. Any chance we can run this class if one of the others fall short?

                Fantastic! You're gonna have a great time, not only at the races but "out and about" should you decide to check out the area.

                I had one of our club members ask the same thing (I think), is "P-Limited Hydro" different than "P-Limited Sport Hydro"?

                BTW, we can add any other class you think might be popular, if we get the entries we'll run 'em!

                  P-Limited Sport Hydro's must use sport hydro hulls. P-Limited Hydro can be any hydro hull (rigger, cat, sport hydro) but most of us run riggers. P-Limited Sport Hydros can run in P-Limited Hydro but not vise versa. If you could add a P-Limited Hydro class that would be cool.... or you could just make it P-Limited Rigger since you already have Limited cat, sport hydro and tunnel classes.

                  Looking forward to coming up. I'm going to try to drag up some other D12 members with me.

                          Yeah, because I act like I'm 14 years old. I'll probably make the club race. I'm already way behind in offshore.
