in attendance, and that's a healthy stretch inland. Some trailed down from Canada and over from Arizona. One attendee flew over from Key West- she had built one of the boats that was there.
And some 5 designers of some note were there, from England, Australia, New Zealand and 2 from the US. Small boats it's true, but serious sailors were there.
