Charlotte Harbor draws raves as boats begin arriving

With less than three weeks to go before the first horn of the Charlotte Harbor Regatta, boats began arriving in Charlotte Harbor this week.

We spotted this post from Jonathan Nye from the Viper 640 class, who brought in his boat over the weekend just in time for some incredible sailing weather.

“Just dropped my boat off at Charlotte Harbor YC. If the regatta features weather anything like this weekend, it will be a special event. The bay is gorgeous and wide open. Winds in the high teens. All the locals who approached me were super friendly. Seems the Club is keen to make this a success. For anyone on the fence about going, I’d strongly encourage you to make the trip,” Nye wrote on the Viper 640 forum Jan. 18.

Less than a mile away, Greg Raybon and his son, Eric, dropped off a trailer full of Hobie 16s fresh off the multihull event in Islamorada. The Hobies will be one of the biggest fleets in the regatta, as the class is looking to establish another midwinter event for members in sunny Southwest Florida.

Sizable Flying Scot, Melges 24, Laser and Sunfish fleets are expected on three circles across more than four miles of wide open Charlotte Harbor for the three-day regatta, Feb. 5-7, 2010.

The exciting new Weta trimaran will also be on display, with North American distributor Jon Britt bringing in a fleet from North Carolina.

The Hobie 16 scratch sheet is up to 12 now and there's plenty of time to get on board, including same-day registration on Friday morning. Check out the Web site at www.charlotteharborregatta.com. Remember, dinner is included every night, including a reception Thursday night, so regattas don't get any more affordable. Can we get 15-18 Hobie 16s on the line?
