[C320-list] From the Rendezvous Planning Committee

[Allan S. Field]

Hi all!
 
Registration is now underway for our annual Catalina 320 International
Association Regatta and Annual Meeting which will be held August 7-9, 2009
at Marina Del Rey in California.  C-320 owners and association members will
rendezvous for a fun-filled weekend of boating and camaraderie.  Join us for
sailing and racing on the scenic Santa Monica bay off the Los Angeles coast
and a gala dinner with a special guest speaker at the Santa Monica
Windjammers Yacht Club on the main channel of Marina Del Rey.  In addition,
there will be an optional Mexican style fiesta dinner on Friday, August 7 at
the end of the historical Santa Monica Pier which celebrates its 100 year
anniversary this year. Enjoy Margaritas on the pier while you watch the
sunset over the Pacific Ocean. You can take a walking tour of this Los
Angeles area landmark, take a ride on the famous carousel (seen in many
movies and TV shows), and enjoy the pier's other amusements including the
arcade, roller coaster and scenic vistas from the new state-of-the-art
Ferris wheel. Close by is the happening Santa Monica Promenade with upscale
shopping and live entertainment.
 
Plan to participate in the always much anticipated C320 International
Regatta race where you will compete for the chance to take home the
perpetual half-hull trophy.  Or, you may prefer leisurely cruising on the
Pacific Ocean just outside the marina. Selected boating vendors and the host
boats' "open-house" will provide ample time to relax while picking up new
tips or supplies to take home for your C-320.  On Sunday, cruises with our
host boats, or a special cruise to Palos Verdes Peninsula for dolphin and
whale watching, will round out the festivities.
