Have I missed anyone?

We also have interest from people looking to charter a Viper to sail in this regatta, including a former Viper owner we're trying to encourage to return to the Class. If you're interested in offering your boat for charter, please contact Justin or I.

Hi Dan ,

Kay reports that he is definitely coming.
Can we get confirm on these attendees and if there is anyone else who is coming.

What about the Lanier folks?

Cheers

Looking for cheap accomodation near Coral Reef YC.... anyone know what the options are?

Where is everybody staying?

Matt

Dan Tucker · March 03, 2009, 01:13:38 PM

Miami + cheap? Not so easy.

ARGH. Can't remember the name of the chain that's up by Rt 1. Hampton Inn maybe? I've stayed there for OCR a couple of years ago. Decent free continental breakfast, and Pollo Tropical right across the street, the bagel shop just across the way too. Behind the Shell station at the top of Aviation Ave. Many details in my head, but not sure which chain it is! ITHINK it's Hampton.

Gringo · March 03, 2009, 02:43:12 PM

Dan - you are right :-)

For the those you still need a place the Doubletree is walking distance and costs about 190/night for a double and the Hampton in is a couple miles away and costs 180/night....

More hotels here: http://www.coconutgrove.com/channels.cfm?channelcat=4

Looking forward to it.

Just got this from the organizers at CRYC:

Dan ? just saw your note about hotels on the Viper web-site. We have piggy-backed onto the Jaguar event at most of the hotels in the Grove. If you call and mention Coral Reef Cup/Jaguar there should be a special room rate. I believe the following may be the best bet:

Residence Inn by Marriott Coconut Grove

2835 Tiger Tail Avenue

Miami, Florida 33133

(305) 285 ? 9303 Phone

(305) 285 ? 9672 Fax

I think the one bedroom suites are $229 and easily sleep three. Also the Hampton Inn you mentioned should have a special rate as well.

Sorry for the late info, I thought I had sent this to you guys earlier. Let me know if there is anything else we can do.

Jonathan Nye · March 05, 2009, 06:02:43 PM

For those attending, don't make plans for Friday night. Plans are underway for dinner at a nearby residence featuring the best home made pizza you've ever had. Details to follow.
