Well, I have done all the calculations and it was a tight race for SSA Laser Fleet Champion this year. In fact there was a tie between Dave Schoene and Luke Shingldecker.... but since Dave has won 2 out of the 6 regattas - he wins the tie breaker. Our 2007 SSA Laser Fleet Champion is Dave Schoene- Congratulations!!
Members can see Dave receive his trophy by attending the Closing Day Brunch and Annual Meeting at SSA Sunday Nov. 11.
Upcoming events- there are a few more weekend events at Fishing Bay YC and Potomac River SA - check out the District 11 website for details - http://www.laserdistrict11.org/

Wanted- Laser to Charter - "I am looking for a laser to charter this winter for my daughter to sail and for me to frostbite.
