Hey, so I'm posting the survey results here.   I removed the last two questions and anything that appeared to have personal information in it to protect the not so innocent, all really good input.    Pretty interesting if you go through this in detail, a lot of things that we knew, but also some highlighted areas that are more important for the fleet to focus on as well.   I'll save my 'findings and analysis' for a further discussion, but if you want to look through the data - it is posted…

I14 USA Fleet Survey

Greetings,

I just purchased an old penultimate and wanted to see if anyone recognized the boat. I plan on restoring the boat and making the rigging more user friendly by removing the mainsheet track and using a self tacking jib.

Any info or advise would be appreciated.

Regards,

Michael…

Six 14's were treated to excellent fall conditions this past weekend at the Totally Dinghy regatta run by RYC.  Although there was no breeze at the city front (sad day for the big boats over there), we had enough breeze on Saturday to twin wire all day long, upwind and downwind, say 8 or a little more knots of breeze? The breeze was very steady and the water was flat, perfect racing conditions and allowing everyone to finish all races.  Well, except for the first race on Saturday, in which…

 Hello/Gooday,

 Before joining this group/class, I did some research.

 I found that there was some interest in older vintage I-14's.

 Let me first say that I have been sailing most of my life.Starting in Sabots at Mission Bay Aquatic Club and now cruising a Catalina 30. In between There has been many races , mostly NACRA 5.2 Cats and keel boat Capri/Catalina 22's, 27's and 30's.

 Back to the vintage stuff.

 A while back I acquired an older 1-14 with great…

We have located and resurrected the Southern California High Point Trophy from our friends at ABYC with a lot of help from Brad Reutenik.   This is a trophy with a lot of history that was originally granted from Schock Boats.   As you all know, the I14 Fleet has a rich and deep history and our trophies and awards are a big part of that.  

The SoCal Hi Point…
