The Moxie crew would definitely be interested. The only concern I would have is weather in the Siskiyous, there are times when I wouldn't want to be dragging a boat trailer through there. The east route through Bend can be a little better, but also weather dependent.

The two Hood River boats are typically on their trailers until April. Keep us posted.

:: Hi All-
::
:: I was wondering what the SF Fleet might think of
:: extending an invitational of some sort during our fall
:: or witertime issued to some of our northern clime
:: fleets?
::
:: We could have a "guest" crew weight exemption for
:: out-of-town guests.
::
:: I don't know what this would look like, but it might be
:: fun to see who might come out. We could use the
:: Corinthian series (a full weekend of racing over a 3-day
:: weekend both January (MLKing B-Day) or February (Prez
:: B-Day).
::
:: Or perhaps we could use another race venue or create our
:: own?
::
:: Just a thought.
