Greetings, we all made it to the regatta site in Hungary. Great hotel, good food, big ice and promissing forecast. Stay tuned for updates this week. Commodore Connell request more funding for the team. Dollars just aren't what they used to be....

Saw on the European site they are at Neusidlersee in Austria. Hope they remember that the driving laws in Czech Rep. are no tolerance for lets just say partying. Rudi should be showing them a great time! Good luck to all. DN4099

Ken: sorry to hear about your crash. Glad everybody walked away from it (more or less). I hope you're able to heal enough to sail again before the end of the trip. Cheers, Geoff S. |

Thanks Ken,
Great result for Mike, I am sure that everyone gave it their best. It is a huge win just getting to the regatta! More than those of us sitting here reading your posts have done.
Hope the rest of the EC goes well for the US team.
