67 boats registered, pretty good showing. Can we hit 100?

Start screaming at the 105 fleet. Only three of those so far.

4 J105's Bee.

82 boat's total so far, should push over 100. This is going to be a great event!

102 boats as of this morning. This is fantastic. It's great to see HYC back to some of her former glory!
I'm going to go out on a limb and say the NOOD folks gave up on Texas a little early after Ike...

Those NUDE folk really made me angry. I offered to go all out to try and get a bunch of regional 105's here. They said this was fantastic and they were all for it. Then they cancel. We should all email them the results.

@ TRAMP - great pictures! Thanks for sharing them.

Af for the NOOD.. who need's them. Instead of overpaying for drinks after racing saturday we had FREE rum compliments of mount gay. Instead overpaying for a medoicer meal we were fed by the HYC juniors.... the money went to a good cause and they did a fantastic job.

Big thanks to the the regatta organizers, and a lot of credit to the fleets who promoted the regatta and got people excited about going.

Cant wait until next year. 200 boats?

I added 5 photos to the GBCA Photos page (not the flickr account) that I cropped out of the 100%er. I really like the vipers!
