Baja Ha-Ha Online Sign-ups Go Live!

It’s live! As we write this, the Baja Ha-Ha cruising rally’s brand new online sign-up procedure has just been finalized and is now ‘live’ — meaning that potential entrants can fully sign up for the October 2008 event at www.baja-haha.com.

Who knew it would be so incredibly complicated to convert a stack of forms to an online signup page? (Certainly not the Rally Committee.) But after thorough testing, the bugs have been worked out and the Committee is happy to be tip-toeing into the 21st century.

All indications are that this year’s rally will be as well attended as in years past. Over 150 boats have begun the entry process, and 31 have fully completed it. For those who shun doing business online, sign-ups may also be accomplished the old fashioned way — see the site or the June Latitude 38 (Sightings article).
