The Charleston fleet continues to grow at a rapid rate. Justin Walling and Jose Biascoechea bought hull 14684, which I’ve nicknamed “Exotic Pet”, from Chris Hamilton. They hail from James Island Yacht Club. Please join me in welcoming them to our great class.

Chris is scheduled to debut his new Allen at the District Championships this weekend.

So far 21 boats are slated to race at the Districts this weekend. For a list of the boats racing, see http://www.lightningclass.org/racing/calendar/eventWhoscoming.asp?ID=506&event=Southeast%20District%20Championship
