I am hoping for some genuine help from a native guide.


Hey Matt I think they drove out all the natives many years
ago


My wife just got a new assignment in Corpus Christi. I can’t think of
any good reason to try to stay in Michigan and watch while the economy
here circles the drain.

We have an S2-7.9 on a trailer that we got to race and trailer cruise.
I know longer own a tow-vehicle and have gotten by borrowing one for
local moves.

I have found a J-24 fleet, but can not identify much other keel boat
racing and the charts (nice- have the available on the web now) do not
look like there is much cruising ground.

Question: Is it worth my while to drag this boat to Corpus
Christi/Rockford?


Corpus Christi is an awesome place to sail... I went down
there years ago for Olympic class races staged out of the
college sailing club; I assume it's been heavily developed
since those days but the wind & water probably haven't
changed much.

Keep the S2, it's a great boat and you can pretty much race
against J-24s boat for boat... and you have the advantage of
the lifting keel. There's a lot of snadbars & shallows down
there.
