NABSA EAST COAST FALL BLOKART
SAIL
Bader Field, Atlantic
City, N J, October 9, 10 &11
The Fall Wildwood blokart Sailing event is moving to Bader
Field. After taking a poll of the Wildwood attendees who sail both sites it was
unanimous that we have more sail time at Bader. No low tide time to work around
and at Bader you can sail any wind direction with less wind. You can stay dry
and no more sand to clean off your equipment. If someone still wants to sail the
beach, low tide on Monday 10/13 is 1:30 PM, Brigantine is only 3 miles from
Bader.
Bader has plenty of
room for racing and practice dial up starts as well as plenty of room for
individual sailing at the same time. There will be
workshops on sailing technique and equipment.The runways and tie down area are in excellent conditon.
The only problem you might have is
wearing out tires if the wind is stong and you are pushing it.
I do pay a daily fee of $300.00 to rent the airport;
attendees will be expected to chip in to cover the cost.
South West
flies into Philadelphia (PHL), 64 miles from Bader Field. Atlantic City (ACY)
airport is 10 miles away and has limited service.
