Multi Marine in partnership with Fairwind Yacht Club will run what will probably be the biggest offshore multhull event in the country on Sept. 14-16, 2007 at the Marina del Rey Launch ramp with an additional start in Long Beach, Ca.

This year we have a variety of sponsors who are bringing lots of goodies. Come join us for three days of racing, cruising, education and fun. Bring the family or friends and relax in the company of novices, experts and friends.

Classes and Crew:
Classes will be determined depending on entries and class rules will apply to any group which has more than 5 boats in their class. A combination of ORCA ratings and FCA ratings will be used, this is due to the nature of "out of town" boats coming to this event. Any boat may request their rating in advance. 31's will be rated using the Open 31 Class rules. There will be a cruising multihull class.
