505 Pacific Coast Championship at Fort Worden Saturday, May 22nd, through Monday, May 24th.
Thanks to the hard work of Dan and Piper, the 2010 International 505 Dinghy Pacific Coast Championship Regatta will be at Fort Worden starting Saturday, May 22nd, and conclude Monday, May 24th. We’ve got some great sailors coming from far and wide, and it should be an exciting event.
Registration will begin at 0930 on Saturday morning. We’ll have a volunteers meeting at 0845 near the launch ramp at Fort Worden Beach. We have several chase/mark boats that are not fully manned, so there will be opportunities to get out on the water with these exciting boats. We have all critical positions filled, but could use help on Saturday morning and with the BBQ on Sunday evening.
We are inviting anyone who is interested to come on down and spectate or volunteer. Thanks for your support!!

The 505 PCC has come and gone, and has left smiles on the faces of many 505sailors, a host of dedicated volunteers, and even untold accidental spectators as they marveled at the speed and grace of these world class dinghies. I just want to acknowledge the hard work of not just Dan and me but also Sugar Flanagan, Sean Rankins and a veritable army of willing folks who helped us host this event. Special thanks to Chris and Kathy Grace for providing a perfect Race Committee platform in their trawler, Petrel! Also, thanks to Jeff Gibbons, whom I forgot to acknowledge at the awards gathering. He provided expert IT support for tabulating the race results. More to come soon about the event.
