New Details Emerge For Corinthian Mids

With less than 24 hours to go before the year’s first big bang — the Corinthian YC Midwinters — new details are emerging which some sources say have the potential to put this event even further over the top than it already is.

A pundit who wished to remain anonymous for reasons of propriety, took issue with statements the club made yesterday regarding Saturday night’s musical entertainment — the Left Coast All Stars, who go onstage at 5 p.m.

"Phrases like ‘hardest-groovin’, ‘Jazzfunk’, ‘SoulJammin’, ‘straight-up-booty-shakin’, ‘Afro-beat’, and ‘funk’n SoulJazz’, are not words typically associated with Yacht Club entertainment," he bellowed. "This indicates that Corinthian YC is blatantly flouting the convention of employing banal wedding DJs or bad reggae bands to drive away the racers after sailing. In light of recent claims that Rear Commodore Andre Klein will dance a hula should the wind fail to materialize, it’s evident that anyone expecting proper yacht club decorum will be outraged!"

Over 130 boats have entered so far. The Sailing Instructions and division splits are posted. Entries can still be done online, and if at least three boats from your club are sailing, make sure to enter your three-boat team in the Aotea Team Trophy competition. According to a source close to the the club "Corinthian YC intends to defend the trophy like an Illinois governor" — leaving open the possibility that the trophy is for sale to the highest bidder in a wire-tapped auction and will possibly be re-dedicated as the Aoeteavich trophy in a ceremony riddled with f-bombs.
