From speaking with a really good sailor here on the lake, it sounds like there are a lot of kinks to be worked out on the learning curve with ORR here so probably not a good time to try to get a rating. We hope to sell our current Corsair in the next 12-18 months and get a bigger one to do more cruising with but we’d like to be able to sail that boat in events like the Mandeville race, Great Lake Race, and some distance stuff like GtoP. The boat we are hoping to get is a Corsair Cruze 970, it’s 32’ feet long and is trailerable so we’re looking to take it places.

Have fun on the Mandeville race. I might buzz the fleet coming in to the northshore on my A-Cat.
