             Toy Box Wins Southern Yacht Club's Opening Regatta

Mardi Gras Regatta 2010

"One Design" Crewed Racing

not those single-handed boats

Who has the J30s to come?

We need to make the Gulf Coast fleet stronger and more inviting for family's and crews. I would like to have meeting with more than the officers present.  We need ideas, thinking outside the box as they say.  This is a new year and we need to get off out tails and start working on NA 2012.  This means if you have a boat, sail it. We need to show that we can host a national event.

Who can Check off all these on there boat in order to race in Nationals?
