I personally LOVE the Miami International Regatta, but I think we are going to try to save our money so that we can buy a fleet of new quads.
With regards to tradition, I don't imagine the Miami Regatta has quite as much tradition as the former Scholastic State Championships and no one gave it much thought when the dramatic changes were made to it last season. Besides, the more regattas that are held on any given weekend, the more opportunities exist for everyone to row and promote the growth of the sport across the State.

Was any thought given to the fact that April 14 is also the Miami International Regatta, one of the oldest and most established regattas of the FSRA circuit? This is a wonderful regatta with a great deal of tradition and altough it is a long trek for some clubs, perhaps this could be the one that they plan to take as an overnight and enjoy Miami and all it has to offer. I encourage strong support for the Miami Regatta and hope as many of you as possible can attend.
