Deposits will be refunded if cancellation notice is received 72 hours prior to arrival date. Room rates are available from three days before until three days after the meeting. University of Hawaii will host a welcoming cocktail party Wednesday evening at the Waikiki Aquarium, within walking distance of the hotel. The new RVOC Safety Video, produced by Jamestown Marine under the direction of the RVOC Safety Committee, should be distributed shortly. It is undergoing a final review by Committee members before being distributed.
All reports indicate that a fine job has been done by all involved.
Please take the time to review the proposed agenda and provide me with any input you might have. As you can see we have several Special Reports. I would like to request that those persons making Special Reports confine their presentations to 10-12 minutes. While preparing for this newsletter I ran across an e-mail from Fred Jones suggesting that we include a section describing our experiences with new equipment. Because I am one of the people who can not remember where they put the hotel information for the upcoming RVOC meeting, I did not solicit information for this section from our constituency in time for this issue.
