 It's not always about finishing first

Enjoy this video.  It needs no explanation.
 
 Searching for the proper venue

The US Vintage Model Yacht Group is looking for a pond suitable for free sailing to host the US-UK Challenge Cup in the Fall of 2011.  They prefer a location in the Mid-Atlantic region or northward.  Skippers will need access to the complete shore line.

Please contact John Snow for more information.
