Dear Sailors,
I hope this email finds you well. My name is Bo Eaves and I am the Regatta Coordinator here at Sail Newport. As a representative of your class, we're excited to provide you with weekly messaging to gear up and energize the registration for the 40th Anniversary Newport Regatta, July 13-14. Please forward this to your class sailors and help recruit participation in what is to be an awesome anniversary celebration of this epic regatta.
 
Sailors can expect a weekend packed with races alongside 16 other one-design classes on four racing circles. Invited classes include IC37, Etchells, 505, 12 Meter, Thistle, VX One, F18, ILCA 6 & 7, J/70, J/80, Ensign, Shields, Sunfish, Snipes, S Class, Melges 15 and Cape 31.
 
Our team is planning socials, surprise events, music, sponsors, swag, a rockin' BBQ, and plenty of sailor camaraderie that only Newport can offer. There is a reason this is a "must-do" event, and this year promises to be an unforgettable weekend. 
 
Registration is now open on yachtscoring.com
 
As this is the 40th anniversary of the regatta, we would love to see as many boats as possible for a weekend of racing here in Newport.
 
We look forward to welcoming you to Newport for a fantastic sailing experience. If you have any questions at all, feel free to email me.
 
All the best,
Bo

Hey 505ers,
We have very few boats registered for this event at Newport.   One of the reasons we made it a 3 day event was to entice you to travel.  Sail Newport puts on a very fun regatta and the festivities Saturday night should be good with the 12M in attendance.  Please register as soon as possible.  I might need to cancel the third day of we don't get enough entries.
Thanks,
Duane
