NBYC - Opti Regatta Update



The Optis are coming!  Wait…  the Optis are HERE!!  With the help of an incredible number of club and town volunteers, over 370 Optis have been registered and are ready to race in the 2006 NE Opti Championships.  McCook’s Park has been turned into Regatta Headquarters with 2  huge tents, Opti manufacturer’s have fabulous displays of boats and equipment set up, the grilles and cooks are working overtime and 370 racers and boats are neatly assembled, each in their own parking spot on the hill.  Hole in the Wall Beach has a dock system with 50 coach boats docked and many racers were out today tuning up.  The whole scene is part Regatta, part country fair, part summer camp.  It’s an unbelievable sight.

 

Some photos of the dock project are up on www.nbyc.org and we’ll post more as we get them but you have to see it in person!  You absolutely must stop down Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday and take a look.  Racing starts at 10:30 each day.
