Have just been to my first Hunter Owners Rendezvous in Solomons Island, and want to say how much I enjoyed getting to know other Hunter Owners, and learning from a few pros. Great people, great party, great race, great weather! Am ready to sign up for the next one, tho this will be hard to beat on most counts! Up until three weeks ago, I owned an '87 28.5. Now, I have an '89 30' and am thoroughly enjoying her! My trip to Solomons was still under the heading of "Shakedown," but am so looking forward to making some modifications/changes to "look good and sail fast." Thanks so much to all the Hunter Owners Clubs and sponsors for sharing a fabulous weekend with the "new kids on the dock"! Dee Doyle s/v Esprit aka Wild Spirit
