There are some mutually exclusive events: Monhegan and Offshore 160 as well as the Martha's Vineyard Around the Island Race, the Gulf of Maine Solo Twin and the New England Solo Twin.  Averisera is considering Martha's Vineyard since two other Aphrodite 101s are coming out to play. Three boats make a class!

Could be a busy summer trying to get in the full slate of events.  

I think the links and dates are all good.  Some sites don't have official postings for the race days so I made a best guess. 

Observed on Yachtworld, an Aphrodite 101

This doesn't show up often because folks with Aphrodite's keep them... well, that's my very prejudiced opinion.  Sonic Boom is for sale in Canada.  I would love to see another down this way.  No financial interest.  Just want another Aphrodite to duel with in New England waters.

Meanwhile, Averisera is hauled out in East Boston and under cover.  Elizabeth and Norm are digging in to an OUPV course.  Norm is teaching most of the classes and Elizabeth is taking notes and tests.  I think she's going to ace the final!

Summer plans?  Maybe try to do a majority of the races in the short handed circuit.  A busy boat could get in a dozen such regattas in 2014.  Schedule to follow.
