Brand New Demo Boat FS 5955 Available at the Wife-Husband Regatta, Delevan

I just heard from Harry that he is planning to bring a brand new Demo boat to the Wife-Husband regatta at Delevan, July 29-31.  This is yet another reason you should plan to attend this year's Wife-Husband regatta, which promises to be a terrific event.  Delevan hosted the 2009 Districts in high style, with great racing and hospitality.  The wife-husband should be superb.  Deb and I hope to see you there.

The new demo boat that Harry is bringing to Delevan is a chance to buy a brand new boat at the demo boat price.  Speaking from experience, this is a great deal.  Deb and I acquired our new boat "Sophie" FS 5897 at the close of the Egyptian Cup two years ago.  This boat was right out of the mold and Harry literally dangled this beautiful boat just in front of us all weekend during the races.  Deb and I  made a quite spontaneous decision to buy 5897 during the awards ceremony of that Egyptian Cup, and we have never looked back.  We keep Sophie as our "road ready" regatta boat, and sail our older Scot "Suzie-Q" FS 3683  at Clinton Lake in the club races.  I can sincerely say that buying Sophie was one of the best decisions we've made over the years.  We've thoroughly enjoyed campaigning this very fast and beautiful boat.  Here's a photo (by Photoboat) of Sophie at last week's NACs (bow 28).



The new demo boat includes a radical racing rig.  All the details are shown below:
