One of the most unique sailing events ever held took place in Pewaukee, Wi. on September 25-27. This year over 20 past mystery guests and class legends were invited back to mix it up on the water and at the bar. Quite a cast of characters and every single person in attendance had a blast and realized how special this event really was. Big thanks to Sean and Tiffany Fidler for the aerials, Tammy Sawyer for the housing and pictures, my driver Mitch Moylan and all the members and friends at the Pewaukee Yacht Club.
