2010 Mac Entries Top 200 / Schedule of Events Now Available

 

Skippers and Friends:

Entries in this year’s race topped 200 late last week.  This response is very gratifying and we’re really looking forward to a great race and a lot of great activities that come along with the race. Remember, if you’ve entered  but have not paid your fee, you are not officially in the race per the NOR. I encourage you to pay as soon as possible to guarantee your place.

 

Invitations to first timers will go out on March 1. We have a list of over thirty boats that are eagerly awaiting their invitation and another thirty boats  that are in various stages of having completed the request process. If you’re in the latter group, we encourage you to complete your request as soon as you can. The sooner you complete your request the sooner we can review it and either help you complete it or get your invitation ready to e-mail to you. If you need assistance, let us know.

 

Speaking of all of the race events we have planned, the Schedule of Events has been posted on the website. Click on ‘The Race’ and then ‘Schedule of Events’  or just click on this link
