993.1 | It looked real exciting ... | MPGS::BAILEYB | May the 4 winds blow u safely home | Tue Sep 27 1988 12:03 | 13 |
| Saw about 5 minutes of coverage Saturday evening. 25-30 knots of
breeze and 6-8 foot seas. Looked real exciting! Wouldn't have wanted
to be out there trying to jibe in those conditions.
An interesting note. While watching the footage, a good friend of mine
who grew up in St Thomas suddenly recognized a high school buddy as
being the skipper of the Finn that was representing the Virgin Islands.
Says she, "anybody can represent the VI in the Olympics, all you have
to do is pay your own way". Coincidentally, her old buddy won the
race.

993.2 | US Olympic Sports Festival '90 | MORO::SEYMOUR_DO | You have a pool over there? | Mon May 21 1990 17:37 | 8 |
| Any Minnesota sailors out there? I've been invited to compete at the
US Olympic Sports Festival, Yachting, on Lake Minnetoka (?) near
Minneapolis July 5-13. I'll be racing in the Divison II Sailboard
class and any information on water temperature and wind
conditions would be very welcome. Also competing will be women's
Europa Dingy, the new Olympic class which is like a minature Finn.
Thanks, Don

993.3 | Goodwill Games | RIPPLE::KOWALSKI_MA | Just another roadside attraction | Fri Jun 22 1990 12:03 | 5 |
| Anyone interested in seeing the Goodwill Games yachting events in
Seattle, Aug 3-4? I have a pair of tickets for both days for the
spectator boat which I won't be using. The venue off Shilshole will be
off-limits to private yachts due to security so the only way to view
the events close-up is TV or the spectator boats. Mark 206/952-0618
