Hello,
I would like to see if there is any interest for getting a fleet together on LI. There are millions of people in this concentrated area and I'm thinking it must be possible to get at least 5+ boats out on the weekend!! There are plenty of clubs around that might be glad to have another fleet on their roster. The Great South Bay is ideal for small boat sailing and has may clubs that cater to just that. I haven't approached any yet but I can/will once we find out where the most convenient location would be.
I have a DSII, #10542, that is rigged with Harkens and the related gear (boom vang, barber haulers, cunningham and spinnaker) but I'm no hotshot and am just looking for some family racing. My kids are approaching thier teens and I thought this would be a good social outlet as well to meet other like minded kids. Post up and let's see if we can revive the DS on LI .
Fair winds
Shawn
