[Peter Beardsley]

Viper ACCs are in Annapolis May 13-15 at the Helly Hansen Sailing World Regatta Series f/k/a "Annapolis NOOD".  Registration is now open: https://www.yachtscoring.com/emenu.cfm?eID=14802  If you need a place to store your boat in Annapolis in between events in Florida and Annapolis, there may be mast-down arrangements available - let me know if you need that information.

37 is in!  Looking at the entries, we're already up to 6 Vipers before the majority of the Annapolis fleet has signed up.

I love when Vipers sign up early, esp. for multiclass regattas. It is some of the best PR we have as a Class - when others go to register for other Classes and they see a bunch of Vipers, it is some of the best free marketing we have.  If 80% of the Chesapeake Vipers sign up this week, we'll have 15+ entries and it'll also be more enticing for out-of-towners to make the trip.

Now at 18 entries.  Should end up being 20+ Vipers on the starting line.

Alright!  We're at 21 right now, with one more Marblehead boat signing up...  Who else is out there?  I think we're going to be 30ish for this...

Here is a write up of the event from Noroton's newsletter.    Although the focus is on teams from NYC, anyone who attended will recognize some common themes 2022 Viper 640 Atlantic Coast Championships.pdf:)
