WEEKEND REGATTA UPDATE

Hey Folks-

After a short discussion with Atkins we decided to tweak the regatta slate for this weekend. He rightly pointed out that the Eastern Champs should be on a big plate with plenty of room to stretch out.

So we will hold off on the Easterns and instead do the Doc Fellows this Saturday and roll into the Beanpot Regatta on Sunday. This regatta is the MA state championship and comes with a very cool trophy!

No matter what name we call it we should have some good racing! To paraphrase Shakespeare, “A rose by any other name is still a rose…”

So here are the details again:

Hey Folks! We are calling the Doc Fellows Regatta ON for this Saturday!

The place will be Long Pond, MA out on Cape Cod. Not the biggest lake in NE but it’ll do!

IF we get the regatta in on Saturday we may roll right into the Beanpot Regatta on Sunday. We will play that by ear.

The launch will be at Long Pond Brewster Beach. Take Rt 6 east, turn north onto Rt 124, take a right onto Crowells Bog Rd, and follow that until you see the launch area on your right. Follow these directions closely as there is more than one “Long Pond” out there….

We will have a skipper’s meeting in the parking lot at 9:30, with the first start at 10:30. Normal rules apply. All contestants must have proof of $300,000 general liability coverage. NO EXCEPTIONS!!

Saturday is Valentine’s Day so make sure to figure out how to work around that….

Stay tuned to this site for updates!
