2008 Dogwood Regatta

April 19 & 20, 2008

Hosted by Thunderbird SC

A dramatic visual report of the a swamped Santana 20 at the Dogwood Regatta provided by IV McNamara.  Details on how the boat swamped (given that the spinnaker is deployed, one would imagine that the boat wiped out racing downwind and flooded the interior of the boat via the companionway).  Hopefully details be provided soon.  No reports of injury or damage - just a very wet boat.

This would be a good time to check your safety gear, the boat's flotation tanks, etc.
