60 boats so far...Wow! 14 (4), 16A (29), 16B (9), 17 (4), 18 (6), 20 (6) Tiger (1) And as soon as Dick Blount makes up his mind which boat he's bringing I can add him to the right class. Some of this tally will change once we start checking everyone in, as some entries didn't have a class or boat size listed. Ron Wagniere..I have you on an 18 due to the note on your entry form.

I will be there on an Hobie 18 16865 Just cant do the online entry as i dont know my HCA number but i am a member of the Australian HCA. Has anyone heard if Mr Hooper is coming or is it just Miles Wood from Aus???

JonJay, I'm not sure how the organizers will want to handle an Auzzie HCA member at Dana Pt. Worst case they will want you to join the HCA-NA....But just to be on the safe side BRING YOUR AUS-HCA membership card or receipts so we can verify it at the registration table....I'll be there to help you at check-in. Rick

A little bird just told me that there are upwards of 80 boats registered now, and 100 are expected. Wow, pretty incredible job James!

Hooper just called to say he can't make it...

I've got entry forms for just about 64 boats so far....we do expect more to check-in late.

I was hoping he would join us again had fun at the North Americans
As for the HCA number i will have to email home and get it somehow...
Or i believe the North American association should have it or it can be easily verified by Mr Hooper. I renewed my membership in Dec last year before the nationals in Austraila.
But see what i can do
Thanks Rick

We have always accepted membership from other regions in the past.

Keep us updated as the regatta gets going.

I see no issue in accepting an HCA membership from the land down under...the issue is verifying it. To that point I have already sent numerous emails to Australia trying to remedy it. Membership (HCA) is required to be scored in the 40th.

Here's the most up to date entries that we have as of 11:00 PM Wednesday, October 2... 14 (4), 16A (30), 16B (11), 17 (4), 18 (6), 20 (7), Tiger (2)... for a total of 64 entries. For a two day points regatta this is fantastic!!!!! We do expect more to check-in late.

Lol i was verified for the north american titles my name is on the results will that do????
