I was thinking of you coming down and sailing on one of our fleet boats here some long weekend (one per boat as a "guest") to save you the hassle of dragging your boat down.

We are in the middle of our Berkeley Mid-Winters racing. Last weekend the weather was about 72 degrees with winds from 5 - 14 kts, which is pretty perfect sailing weather, even if we didn't get our expected "ride" downwind. The Berkeley (berkeleyyc.org) Mid-Winters are the 2nd weekend in Nov, Dec, Jan, Feb. Corinthian Mid-Winters are the 3rd weekend in both Jan and Feb. Both the Corinthian Mid-Winters weekends are long weekends I believe (MLKing B-Day and Prez B-Day).

Glad there might be some interest.

:: The Moxie crew would definitely be interested. The only
