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: Transom Step
Info: (21848 views) Posted: Wednesday 10-3-07 02:13:33 PM
Kim recently told me that the mold was lost/destroyed when he moved to KKMI. He also indicated that it would cost $9K or more to do the work although that may have included making a new mold.

I also would be interested in borrowing or renting the mold if it magically appears.
