Guys, Tidewater Marine in Portsmouth has a special on their transient rate for the race.$1.75 per foot, per night, for Friday 24th and Sat 25th. Also it is not too soon to get your entry in. This race has become more and more popular each year, and they will probably have to limit entries. Tidewater Marine has good slips, a pool, a couple of good restaurants, and is about a block from where the parties are, and a short walk from the restaurant row in Portsmouth and the ferry over to Norfolk. Good place to stay. See ya on the water. John
