John,
I'm planning to hit Fleet 23's Leukemia Cup in Dallas on May 2-3 and the Sand Snakes regatta in Little Rock on Memorial Day weekend. The price for showing up to let you veterans kick my butt is that y'all are going to have to share some wisdom with me. The only H-20 I've seen rigged up is mine. Scary, really scary.
If the first couple of regattas go well and I get hooked then perhaps I'll work my way north into Oklahoma and Kansas. How did the Plains states become such a bastion of H-20 sailing?
DCYC is a great venue for a regatta, you'll enjoy it. March up and introduce yourself as a newbie to the 20 and you'll receive your wisdom.
IIRC, Mark Benge, in OKC, was the one of the first to make the move to the 20. When you're out on the course and a 20
blows by you it's hard to to want one!
