Michael:
	I doubt that you can get him to Miami.  Very few of the small
sailboat companies are going there lately.  It has gotten very elitist.
	However, if enough people get on his case, you might get
Philadelphia.  Get the Philadelphia area Rhodies and friends to promise him
a buffet dinner.  It might help if people local to Philadelphia got the show
specifications.  Get them to find out where he could put his boat without
being lost in a corner. Get the Washington Post to cover the event.  They
have a reporter/writer who knows something about sailboats.  Can they sail
boats in the Delaware at that point?  Promise him a hotel with a king size
bed in walking distance.

Brad,
    I guess it depends on what sailboat you have. 
 While it has been hot here  too, Saturday afternoon the breezes were good,
but  variable.  It would blow  5 to 10 one direction for an hour, stop and
blow 4  to 6 in a different  direction for 15 minutes then stop, wait 20
minutes,  and blow 5 to 6 in a  third direction.  A Rhodes22 can easily
handle this stuff. 
    I thought of Bill Effros's post about setting up  and sailing by moving
weight around.  I guess Bill could not sail on Lake Hartwell, it just does
not work that way.  However, if you are willing to sail in different
directions with different sail set ups, well it was sailing...And the breeze
kept you cool. 
    Brad since you have time on your hands, consider
