I got this email message:-
"Rumor has it Michelle Lee of the Sarasota Sailing Squadron is waiting for registration to open so she and her team can prepare to defend their 2015 Gulf Coast Championship title and take home her second Top Female Skipper award."
To which I replied:-
"I pity the man (let alone woman)who tries and takes a title away from Michelle, Nicky and Vanessa.
Beware an invitation to go out for a "friendly social drink" the night before. You will probably wake up in a ditch in a very seedy neighborhood with a cracking headache, no shoes and a card planted between your teeth that says "Choir Boys"."
So, is there an entry list or registration page open?
Not yet, Scott. let me see what I can do on that. Craig
