I know: No earlier than 1984. Very low water. The Superlight was the happenin' race board. Anything "RAF" was very new school & the Neil Pryde "Warp" Slalom was the hot sail. I had a new Klepper 360 board from Brian Sloggy's shop.

Anybody?

I bought a mistral pandera from weathermark when lavern sloggy was working out of there the same year a girlfriend of mine had a boat at baldridge marina in 1987 ... the water got so low that year there was a small channel we could only get in and out through.

Mike Gebhart had that clinic at weathermark and prize giveaways. I won a 5.5 Np sail and if I remember correctly you won a boom didnt you Chris?

Mike won the bronze medal in 1988 so my guesstimate would be 1987-1989

Check out the PFDs either on the board or on the sailor.

I recognize several people, Greg Dillon, Matt from Tullohoma, and of course me. I am sailing a Sailboard in early shots but Fanatic in pics 17/18 so it was early 80's but not sure exactly. I am also on different sails so I think it may be different years for the first set and last set,
The Fanatic tag I had on the Hearse when I sold it was 83, so again I am thinking 81 or 82????

Can I get hi res pics of 7, 17, and 18?

You are #28, right? Which is Matt? I thought maybe Garrison is in some of these. Remember Gail & Gayle (on the Klepper boards)? Who's that starting a railride in #4? The last two of you are definitely 1987. (Did you notice the jib of my r/c boat in the corner?) I think the first ones are '86... but could not have been before 1985. The two of Diane are 1983. re: hi res- yes

Yes #28,
And Diane is sailing a mistral Kahului not a superlight, wider and flatter in the back. In pic 15 look at the back of the sail, the name is there. I had one of those also.
pic 2 Garrison is on the far right Matt is in pic 8, red shorts with the white stripe
Pic 10 #171, was that Steve Schmidt?
