Well, registration is open and the team slots are filling up, get yours in soon!

A current list of entered teams is available from the “Current Teams” page on this site.

As for where to stay, we’re officially recommending the Falcon Motel on Hatteras as a great affordable place to stay for the contest.  We used the Falcon during the last National Championships, the folks there are really nice, theres lots of space near the rooms to outfit boats, etc, and the prices can’t be beat ($69 a night for a 2-4 person room).  The rooms are pretty simple, so if you are looking for something more swanky, there are some other hotels and rentals in the area.  But we like the Falcon people, and we’ll probably hold the awards ceremony there at the pool…as we did for nationals.  Heck…they even sent the ESKA a christmas card last year!

There is a fishing tourney that weekend, so rooms are going to fill up fast, call and reserve one ASAP.

There is some camping available in the area as well, I know theres a KOA and some other spots.  Make sure you confirm their proximity to the Hatteras Lighthouse, to make sure you’re in the right neck of the woods.

Hope everyone is getting excited about the contest, I know several teams are still looking for Waveskiers so please spread the word.
