Likewise, good times are dialed in for March 12th at the Dublin pub where Doug's wife's band "Sounds like Chicken" will be playing.
New Fleet Captain for 2011
I want to introduce the new fleet captain for Portland, Phil Brzytwa. Phil and his crew sail Ghost (J24 #5322) and were up at PCSC last Fall. Phil came to Portland in 2008, and has been a great addition to the Portland Fleet, and I'm looking forward to the energy and excitement he'll bring to the District and Class. Also want to thank Rob & Eric for their efforts over the last couple years.
Regards,
Doug

Bic O'Pen Un-Regatta for Kids
Saturday, August 28, 2010
Cascade Locks Marine Park, Cascade Locks, Oregon
The purpose of this event is to showcase a new format for Youth Sailing in a fun, unorthodox, and loosely competitive style. This format has already proven popular at many O’Pen Bic regattas around the world. Results are not nearly as important as everyone having a good time sailing. Don’t expect conventional round the buoys racing or normal 1-2-3 prizes. Capsizes and freestyle and fun will be required. If you are a hard-core racer with rule book in hand, this event may not be for you. If you want to just have fun and pioneer a new chapter in Youth Sailing, game on!
For more information on this race see the comment on this post.
