I saw this regarding the Stumpbuster- assuming it applies to Interlakes as well?
Was wondering the same thing
We will know for sure on Sunday if Interlake’s are cancelled as well.
Looks like a go now… with some caveats….
Lightening Districts are still on in Mansfield June 18-19. NoR is our. I’m your PRO, everyone is welcome!
Registration is open!

When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.Update: The Indian Lake regatta scheduled for May 21st is still ON. Although there are an abundance of weeds along the shore, the main lake continues to be sailable. If you are planning on attending the regatta, please be aware that the club will be towing boats out to the main lake area. You will also need to clear your rudder and centerboard often.
Hello Interlaker’s! Just an update on the Indian Lake Regatta scheduled for May 21st. The club is keeping a close eye on the weed situation. As of today, the regatta is still a go. There are weeds along the shore, but the main lake is sailable. There will be a definite decision made on Sunday.
The “weed situation” piqued my interest.

The Interlake Class lost a great one Friday, my mom, Gretchen Heinke. After an amazing 88 year life, she passed away peacefully in hospice. She asked to be cremated with no service, but asked that everyone raise a toast in her honor. 🍺 Cheers to you Gretchen 🍻❤️
Wow yes we lost a great one for sure. Very sorry it’s the natural course of life but your never ready for it! My Mom was my biggest fan, I miss her in the daily! Toast to Gretchen and happy she is not suffering.
One of the legends of the Class. I may raise two or three for her.
Wow she was one of the best
Liz and I have many fond memories chatting with Gretchen and always enjoyed her support of the class.
SLAINTE
I didn't know her, but if she sailed an Interlake & was a Buckeye fan, she had to be a great lady!
Very sorry for your loss She was a great lady
Gretchen was a treasure to us. Most definitely a toast in her honor.
I will toast for sure.. she looks amazing
sincere condolence to the family and friends
Dave and Vickie, so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom. She was so special and always such a positive light and will be missed. Scott and I a sending prayers and hugs and we hope your memories give you plenty of smiles while dealing with your loss! ❤️
Toast to Gretchen, she greeted and welcome me to our class. She was class. Godspeed. 🥂
So Sorry to hear about Gretchen, she was a great lady. Always enjoyed seeing her and sailing with her. The Interlake class will deeply miss her.
I always enjoyed talking botany with Gretchen. She was always so kind. Cheers to your mom
One of the Greats!
Oh my, sad to hear this but what a great woman she was! We will make a toast to her and remember all the good times at Leatherlips, Indian Lake, Put-in-Bay, Sandusky, and other places we sailed with her. Cherish the memories, David Heinke ! Our deepest condolences to you, Vickie and your family. She will be missed.
Sorry to hear of her passing. She’ll be sailing around heaven waiting for us. Peace.
Sorry to hear Dave. She was a wonderful person.
Very sorry for your loss Dave, sending you a big hug.
Oh, what wonderful times we had! We loved Gretchen so much.
I had a Scotch and toasted her. She was a wonderful person. So sorry for your loss.
Growing up at Leatherlips it was great to see her as a women and mom be so active in sailing. I always admired her grit!
So sorry , Sail on, r.I.p.
For you cats who are always buying new North Sails every year, does anyone have a main and jib a few years old that your willing to sell?
There is a listing from Skip Dieball on the Interlake classifieds but it's over a year old.
I have a Greiner main that is about two years old and an older north jib. Main is in good shape but wrong cloth. Perfect for cruising
I have three sets you can choose from. Club racer to a set of Evolutions that have five races on them.
I trade a handle of rum for my first set of interlake sails.
**World Sailing Looking for Classes/Fleets/Clubs to Test a new Rule 18, Mark-Room**
Without a doubt, the most complicated rule in the rule book is Rule 18, Mark-Room. It is the rule that applies when boats are rounding or passing marks. The WS Racing Rules Committee has commissioned a Rule 18 Working Party made up of international sailors and rules experts to try and find ways to simplify rule 18 without significantly changing the way the game is currently being played. The Rule 18 WP is looking for fleets who would be willing to **test a new rule 18 between May 1 and July 15, 2022.** The test would include a packet with the test rule and supporting information, a Zoom session with a member of the Rule 18 WP for all the participants before the testing began, and a follow-up Zoom session at the end of the test period for the participants to share their experiences, thoughts and suggestions. Any fleets, clubs, sailing organizations or classes, etc. willing to help the Rule 18 WP by testing a new rule 18, please **contact Dave Perry at [davperry@optonline.net](mailto:davperry@optonline.net)**.

BTW, the water is still cold in Tampa Bay. Sorry to hear so many went swimming.
The smart boats stayed ashore!!!!!
They sailed today? 🙄
A few more pics and videos from Midwinters.
Not seeing any tents - anyone brave it?
I hope this isn't an indication of sailing for the season! Last season was survival sailing at almost every regatta. Not eager to repeat that!!!!
Hope you enjoyed a few brews with the oléman. He’s not a bad sailor when he knows not to go sailing.
Another great USS Rule Book Club presented tonight by Clark Chapin. I'd encourage everyone to tune-in to his seminars and brush up for this season. We are incredibly fortunate to have his infinite knowledge of the sport to support the Class.
Thank you Mate!
