U20 Regattas - Where, When & Who's Going! / Re: LBRW

Thanks for the report Glenn.  You look good on a J111!

The best venue for SD and the U20 is the South Bay Coronado Roads!  It sounds like they might do this next year for the Yachting cup as they try to replace the NOOD. 

Still like your idea of doing LBRW for a PCC.

Unless you're sailing inside in San Diego, it is a hell of a motor out to the ocean in a U20!  No thanks.

After a last minute cancelation I was asked to call tactics on a j111 for yachting cup hosted by San Diego yacht club. I am not a pro by any means. But the experience and venue is another nice option as the racing was on the ocean off Coronado roads. I'm not sure if this year's conditions was an anomaly or the Norms. I haven't done this regatta in about 20+ years. It's a 2 day event with Saturdays breeze in the 10-12 kt range and Sunday we saw 16-18 kts.
I write this as a viable option for early May and the U20 and San Diego are synonymous. There aren't many weekend events in SoCal anymore to make it worth travelling for out of towners and LBRW is one of the last 3 day events left.
BTW we didn't do do well as we got shish kabobed by a j122 at the top mark in the 2nd race that took out 1/3 of our wheel. Some ghetto repairs we were able to continue the rest of the regatta.

Looks like some momentum here.  What about LBRW for the Pacific Coast Championship in 2025?  Glenn can you be the boots on the ground for this?

I would be interested in a Long Beach area race. My U20 is in Ventura so not far away.
