All of the pictures in the section were posted by Dr. Bob Greer.  He has done a terrific job of documenting the regattas through the years.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.

While I am at it, here are his pictures from the J's and EC12's at Mystic Seaport this year.



Please make sure that your regatta is listed in the AMYA schedule and to submit your regatta report to the Regatta Coordinator.  The Model Yachting Editor encourages the use of the summary report.

Submissions are accepted.  Do you have something quick you want to get to a bunch of people?  Sure send it in.  However, anything more than a paragraph really belongs in the AMYA magazine, Model Yachting
