South Broward Model Sailing Club announces 2012 CR 914 Midwinter Regatta, to be held February 19th, 2012

The South Broward Model Sailing Club cordially invites you to attend the 2012 CR 914 Midwinter Regatta, to be held at C.B. Smith Park in Pembroke Pines Florida (Ft. Lauderdale/Miami area) on February 19th, 2012

This invitation is for all CR 914 owners who want to do some great sailing during these cold months, those from nearby states, northerners who are weary of ice and snow and looking for some good sailing before the regular season kicks off this spring, and all other potentially "regatta-prone" sailors, even a few who live on the west coast. We particularly want to attract new CR 914 owners and those who have little or no prior RC racing experience, and we hope to again draw a mix like the 15 rookies and veteran 914ers who entered the first Midwinter’s back in 2006. The 10 boat fleets 2007 and 14 boat fleets in 2010/2011 when this regatta was brought back.

The format of the regatta will be defined in short depending on fleet size, it will be HMS (if more than 16) and the information will be on our clubs website. As with the 2006/2007 and 2010/2011 Midwinter’s, our emphasis will be on having fun and learning how to enjoy the regatta experience, and we plan to offer formal as well as informal mentoring as part of the experience.

You will find the official Notice of Races, a registration form, lodging information, a list of prospective registrants, and information about the sailing venue and park facilities. http://sbmsc.com/2012-CR914-Midwinter-Regatta.php

We hope that you will be able to join us in Florida for this celebration of the great sport of sailing and our wonderful boat, the CR 914. If you think that there is any chance that you will be able to do so, please please email or phone us if, after looking at the regatta webpage, you have any questions or if we can be of any help.
