Midwest and East Coast E27 sailors, make your plans now to sail in the Detroit NOOD/Express 27 Great Lakes Championship, May 31-June 2. As in previous years, Crescent Sail Yacht Club will host out-of-town Express 27s participating in the event and will provide launching and mooring for the event without charge. And the Detroit Fleet will do all it can to make your participation in the event enjoyable. Please let Ralph Deeds email r-tdeeds@ix.netcom.com know if you plan to come and contact him with any questions or help finding a place to stay. We are hoping for 8-12 boats for some good one design competition. Lake St Clair can usually be counted on for a variety of wind and wave conditions for the 3-day event. See ya there!
