Woodenboat.com has the events calendar, but in planning for 2002 there are not too many events listed; and I don't see the Americas Cup listed in 2003--yet. Question: is there another site that datelines the big events for all of sailing?? I miss that feature in WB mag.

The events listed in our calendar in the magazine involve wooden boats exclusively or predominantly. The postings to the web calendar are extracted from our published calendar, but individuals may also post event notifications there. Events like AMERICA's Cup races are off our subject because the boats are not built of wood. An exception was the unusual gathering of classics at Cowes this year celebrating the 150th anniversary.

For Cup and other general sailing information, try following the links available through our home page. Mark Rosenstein's Sailing Page would be a good start, but there are others. Or, do a web search on the particular event you're interested in.
