Try Diane at Sail Annapolis for a Chesapeake charter of a 320.  If anyone would 
now, she would.  410-280-8878, sales at sailannapolis.com/

 C320IA Members,

 We've had a fantastic response to our recent association survey and I'm 
 pleased to announce that plans are being made for an exciting meeting and 
 regatta on your preferred date of August 1-3. A total of 48 of you (not 
 including spouses) indicated you MAY be able to attend, so we are looking 
 forward to one of the best attended meetings in recent years. So mark your 
 calendars and start watching for bargain airfares (try using 
 http://www.sidestep.com/flights).
 Here are more details, courtesy of your committee....

 To:  All members of the Catalina 320 International Association

 Please plan to join us in Annapolis, Maryland – the sailing capital of the 
 world – August 1-3, 2008 for our annual Catalina 320 International 
 Association Regatta and Meeting.

 The C320IA officers are excited about plans to gather our C-320 members in 
 this historic city and capital of Maryland for an educational and 
 fun-filled weekend of boating and camaraderie.  Our plans include sailing 
 and racing on the Severn River and the Chesapeake Bay and a 3-hour dinner 
 cruise aboard the 67 foot luxury yacht, the Cabaret II.  In addition, 
 there will be a tour of the United States Naval Academy - one of the most 
 prestigious institutions of higher learning in the nation and a National 
 Historic Landmark, marine vendors, historical speakers, a gala awards 
 dinner Saturday night with door prizes at the renowned Phillips waterfront 
 restaurant in the heart of downtown Annapolis.

 Need more?  Extend your Annapolis vacation a few more days and visit the 
 National Sailing Hall of Fame, do a walking tour of the Historic District, 
 or visit St. John’s College - founded in 1696 and one of the oldest 
 institutions of higher learning in the U.S.   Need still more?  Take a few 
 more days and visit nearby Washington, D.C. , Baltimore Maryland – home of 
 Fort McHenry and the writing of the Star Spangled Banner, and Ocean City – 
 Maryland’s seaside playground.

 It’s always great to meet sailors with the same taste in boats.  We hope 
 to attract as many 320’s to this event as we can.  Since not everyone can 
 bring their C320 to these locations we traditionally ask the owners who 
 bring their boats to take the land-locked owners out for a sail or race 
 thereby giving everyone who attends a chance to sail on a C320 in waters 
 they might not otherwise get a chance to sail in.  If you bring your boat, 
 I hope you will participate - the favor is always returned as we move 
 around the country each year.  In addition, everyone can see and take note 
 of the endless array of modifications owners have made to their boats, 
 meet the current and incoming Association officers, make new friends you 
 will undoubtedly chat with on-line or see again at future Regattas, and 
 compete in the C320 International Regatta for a chance to take home the 
 perpetual International Regatta half-hull trophy.

 Our home base will be the Port Annapolis Marina where slips will be 
 available for all boats in attendance.  This is a super 16-acre facility 
 with a short ride to downtown via land, water taxi, boat or dinghy. 
 Facilities include beautiful grounds, a pool, a putting green (don’t 
 forget your putter), plenty of parking, picnic grounds, and a large 
 pavilion that will be furnished and reserved for C320IA gatherings.  Slip 
 fees will be $2.50/foot and electricity is included – not bad for the 
 Chesapeake – and bikes are available for free at the Ship’s store.

 A weekend schedule and event links are provided below.  We’re working on 
 hotel information and pricing for the weekend, this information will be 
 distributed as it is available via e-mail so watch your Inbox or contact 
 Warren Updike (WUpdike at hotmail.com) or Bruce Stumpp (BStumpp at comcast.net) 
 for further details.

 We look forward to meeting in Annapolis!
