(Fort Worth, Texas)- Get your game on in Texas for the 2012 North
Americans to be held at Fort Worth Boat Club on October 31-November
1st! There are a great slate of feeder events starting with the HOOD
regatta at Houston YC, followed by J/Fest at Houston YC. J/Fest
Southwest has become a "can't miss" event for the local J Sailors, and
the Texas J/80 sailors would like to see all their J/80 counterparts to
go down and experience the fun times at this great event!
The very next weekend is the last Southern circuit stop two weeks before
the North Americans! So, get your J/80 on down there and dial up your
favorite airline (Southwest, maybe?) and get some cheap tickets to fly
back and forth. Local J/80 owners will try to pitch in and help trailer
boats to Ft. Worth from Houston! In the true vernacular of Southern
hospitality, "you'll come on down, ya here!" They mean it. When the
Texan contingent decide to throw a "hoe-down" and have some fun, you
really don't want to miss it. Fun sailing and entertainment for all!
Here's how the schedule lays out for those who wish to extend their
sailing seasons into the fall (especially for our J/80 European
friends):
