Below quoted from Pressure Drop: Drew Scott was helming a F-28.

"My crew is starting to swing around to pick me up when El Raton, in perfect control slides up beside me and asks if I would like to get picked up. They had already doused their chute and stopped beside me. I took their offer and got back into a boat (trying to stop a lightweight trimaran next to someone when it is blowing in the mid-20s is not easy so I figured I would not turn down El Raton.

My crew ably finished the race on Papillon, only one boat behind El Raton! And I had many adventures with El Raton, but that is their story to tell.

So, a great big thank you to the Ray Lotto and the crew of El Raton for pulling my soggy hide out of Suisun Bay!!

Subject: 2008 Schedule
Info: (20207 views) Posted: Monday 9-24-07 11:32:15 AM
I don't know the answer to your questions (I think Brendan agreed to take charge of scheduling again for 2008).

But here is my two cents -- I'd like to see the class choose 6 or 7 events spaced throughout the year to rally around with a focus on getting 18+ boats for each event -- less, but better racing.

Perhaps something along these lines: 

- Three Bridge Fiasco (January)
- Spring Keel (March)
- Resin Regatta (April)
- Elite Keel (May)
- PCCs (July)
- Nationals (September)

Along with this, lets drop some of the less well attended events or move them to the "long distance / fun" series. The schedule is too big.

:: Will there be an end of season meeting to determine the
:: 2008 class racing schedule? If not, when will the class
:: officers propose a 2008 schedule?
