FWC Update - Feb 2025

2/17/2025

 
Greetings FWC Members!

We are on the back half of winter, thank goodness! Sailing season will be in full swing before you know it. Here's your February newsletter!

What's been going on?

Our main priority so far has been getting the regatta schedule, particularly our Tier 3 regattas, confirmed, as well as continuing to make plans for the FWC Championship and US Sailing Multihull Championship regattas as they are the major events of the year. I'm pleased with how progress is coming, and I expect these are both going to be great events.

We also confirmed, in January, our At-Large board members for the next two years. As a reminder, those positions are not elected, and are appointed by the president. The purpose is to serve on the Rules Committee and help provide thought and direction in that role. I'm pleased that Richard Mccreedy will serve in this capacity again, and new this year is Bill Jeffers who brings a world of experience and is a great addition to the team.

Membership

Thank you to those who have already renewed your membership for 2025! If you haven't yet, the process is easy. Please send an email to [email protected] for mailing instructions, or find a renewal link on the home page of our website: https://www.formulawaveclass.com/


Our referral program remains in place, where you can earn money off next year's membership when referring brand new members to the class! Send this form to any potential new members, and make sure they write your name in when submitting it https://drive.google.com/file/d/1J2umLAvzy60gf3RTwg1el0OJWmY_-ZrV/view?usp=sharing


This year, we are offering a single event membership for $15 that is good for the Corpus Christi event only. Please contact us if anyone needs more information on this. If you are planning on sailing at multiple regattas, a full membership is required for $25. Remember that active and paid members do earn season points at any Tier 3 regattas, and those serve as a good way to boost your season point standing!

Schedule

You can find our full schedule here - https://www.formulawaveclass.com/regattas.html

Corpus Christi Lodging Info

Next, lodging has opened up for the US Sailing Multihull Championship! We strongly recommend staying on site - that's where all the action will be and the beach is right next to the hotel.


For those of you who stayed last time and remember the bayside/ocean front rooms - these are sadly not available this time. The hotel has changed some ownership and they are making changes and renovations to those rooms. All rooms are in the main hotel, and both single King and double Queen rooms are priced at $129/night.


There are two options to book:

Option 1, click here to sign up online!

If you'd rather do it over the phone, option 2 is to call 361-257-3040 and tell them you are with the US Sailing Multihull Championships to get the appropriate rate and room block.

If you are interested in parking an RV for the week, we do have a limited number of spots available. Please email Chris at [email protected] or call him directly at 641-425-8720.

Thank You

Thank you to all who participate with the class - we are so excited for 2025!

See you on the water!
