Hoosier Regatta

Lake Wawasee, Syracuse, Indiana

This Weekend - October 2-3, 2021

2021 Hoosier Regatta. We are pleased to report that we have 25 boats confirmed, plus two “maybe’s”.

 

Here are some random bits of info as you plan your weekend….

 

·         The Wawasee Yacht Club location on Google Maps is correct

·         We are on Eastern Standard Time

·         The SI’s are attached.  Appendix A – Course Diagram – will be available at registration

·         Please plan to pay registration fee using check or cash

·         Fact:  Lake Wawasee is Indiana’s largest natural lake 

·         The registration fee ($135) covers everything for your team of 3.  Extras (meals, shirts, etc) may be purchased.

·         We have one crane, but our volunteers get people in and out pretty quickly.

·         The sail to/from the course is not far

·         There is (still) no WiFi at the club

·         This IS David Schmahl at the club

·         Everyone will have housing

·         There are showers at the club

·         Most people will arrive Friday evening.  Skipper’s meeting is Saturday at 1100, so there is time to rig in the morning

·         There will be beer and snacks at the club for Friday night’s welcome party

·         Fact:  Lake Wawasee is one of the southernmost glacial lakes in the US

·         For Friday dinner, there are 2 great options nearby

o   The Sleepy Owl (walkable, big menu, popular)

o   The Man Cave Brewing Co. (1.9 miles south, gastropub, cool scene)

·         There is a big BRUNCH at the club Saturday morning from 0900 til 1100.  There is no lunch, so eat a lot!

·         For you early birds, stop at Brew City Roasting Company in town (2 miles north) for great coffee and treats.  The Syracuse Café is also a nice sunrise breakfast joint.

·         We’re planning on mostly downwind finishes

·         Bill and Lori Crawford are official race photographers!  (visit www.harborpictures.com)

·         Our protest committee is ill-tempered, so let’s settle everything before returning to the pier

·         Beer and the famous hot buttered rum after sailing.  Happy hour at 6PM.  Dinner & Program at 7:00

·         Dinner is steak, baked potato, salad, etc.

·         Sunday morning light breakfast at the club.  Lunch (chili) to follow racing.

 

On behalf of all the members of Wawasee Yacht Club and Lightning Fleet 154, we look forward to a great weekend of friends, food, and great racing!!
