Our last regatta for the season on Western Long Island Sound just finished Sunday, Oct 24th. Most years there are only 4 weekends in Oct, so it usually finishes up the last weekend of Oct. However, if I were able to make it to Nawlins' I would probaly skip that regatta anyway.
Also, as far as KWRW goes, it would probably be a one or the other or none condition for me. Tough to take so many weeks off for sailing for me and the crew.
