Ya’ll come join us for a TEXAS Size Regatta! 2023 marks the 50th anniversary for Hobie Fleet 23’s Mid-America’s Area Championship Regatta. We plan to do it up big, as we know “everything is bigger in Texas”. The event will be held at Dallas Corinthian Yacht Club in Oak Point, Texas. It is a beautiful venue with clubhouse, hot showers, an outside dining area, grassy launch area, and yacht club members who LOVE the Hobie sailors visiting their venue! Tent camping is available (free of charge) onsite. There are no RV hookups, but you can bring your self-contained RVs and camp onsite. LaQuinta is building a new hotel within minutes of the regatta site, in Little Elm Texas, and we’re hoping it will be opened just in time for our event as well. Spring sailing in Texas is always thrilling! This 50th anniversary event will be a 3-day event. Friday night (6:30-7:30ish) we will have early registration, welcome, and a Texas taco party to greet you. Saturday we have buoy racing followed by a lovely catered dinner and REUNION party with an amazing 80-90’s classic rock band called “Replica”. We want to see ALL Hobie/Catamaran sailors past and present at the 50 year reunion. This is the “50 year class reunion” that you actually want to attend! Sunday will continue with buoy racing followed by awards. For those who wish to enjoy the 3-day holiday weekend, we are having a long distance “race”/daysail on Monday. Weather permitting, we plan to sail to the larger side of the lake and back. We also hope to have a few yacht club members taking the “old salts”/reunion guests out for rides as well.
