This week is the 2011 Laser Midwinters East Regatta in Clearwater Florida. Not only will some of the best sailors from District 11 be there, but so will some of the best Laser sailors from around the country and around the world. With 194+ boats pre-registered including a 78 in the Standard Rig fleet and 103 in the Radial fleet, it’s bound to be a great regatta. Now if only the light winds that plagued the Florida Masters Week last week will give way to a little stronger gulf winds.
@JonDeutsch will also be part of the class effort to tweet updates throughout the regatta on the @LaserMWE twitter account so head on over to twitter throughout week for race updates starting Thurdsay. And while you are at it, be sure to follow @LaserDistrict11!
