| 993.1 | It looked real exciting ... | MPGS::BAILEYB | May the 4 winds blow u safely home | Tue Sep 27 1988 11:03 | 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 16:37 | 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 11:03 | 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
